About
The Riverbend Golf Complex sits along the Green River in Kent Valley, Wash. Owned and operated by the City of Kent, the complex offers a championship, 18-hole course and a mini-golf course. The 18-hole course is one of the busiest in the state with more than 65,000 rounds played on it annually. The golf course sprawls across a relatively flat landscape, making it easily walkable. Though it may not be hilly, that doesn't mean it's trouble free. There are more than 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout and three lakes come into play as well. The layout is player friendly, with enough variety to appeal to players of all skill levels.

Great Beginner course!
Fairways are fairly straight. Not too challenging. Some of the bunkers had wet shallow sand in them and were not raked out. Overall a very fun course to play. Perfect course to learn your basic skills.

A mess
Several of the greens were in rough if not terrible condition.. Couldn't get to the hole without putting through a crater field.. several of the greens had debris on them that looked like it had been there for days. Cigarette butts on several greens .. left me wondering if anyone was actually taking care of course.. the bathroom on the back nine was disgusting.. I was shocked .. no coffee in the club house for an early am tee time .. guy said there was no room for a Keurig? Really? I have a hard time not enjoying golf so in general we were satisfied with the outing .. but this course is a last resort for me now..its a shame because I've played it quite a bit in the past.

Course in great shape
The faiways were firm and dry. Greens were fast but in good shape. Great public course. Only complaint would be with rough cart paths. They wouldn't stop me from playing it again though.

Good day on the course
For early in the season the course was in good shape. The fairways were fairly dry and while the greens were a work in progress they rolled okay. They are remodeling inside the pro-shop and the restaurant at the course (which has been closed for a long time).
