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.

The golf outing. Photo submitted by mastergolfer12 on 09/26/2012
Enjoyable.
Layout was okay, fairway was decent, not great, but the greens were in excellent shape despite the rain. Pace was great and we were able to finish 18 holes in 4 hours + a bit. With friendly staff, I am satisfied.
Greens!
Decent layout, excellent green condition, and good pace. Friendly staff. Well worth the visit.
Tee boxes are trashed
Great course, just wish they'd rake better care of the tee boxes. Most don't have any grass at all and are just bare dirt spots.

Tee Box conditions
Most of the golf course is in good shape considering how many rounds are played every day. However the tee boxes are sub par. Especially on holes 13 and 16. Hole 16 white tee box was nothing but weeds. Unacceptable for what you have to pay to play at this course. I play all over the area and Riverbend tee boxes are by far the worst.
The rest of the course is pretty good. Grounds keeper needs to fix those tee boxes.

Course condition
Great course, well maintained compared to couple years ago, fairways was hard as a rock. Green was fast.

Screwed with paying
I reserved our times with a card. It was charged immediately so I wasn’t able to use my free passes.

Seen Better Days
The course has seen better days, maintenance team was practicing chipping vs working on the course, flooded in spots and dead in others. Seems like need to look into things as guy changing the cup asked for time around 8 am which should be done hrs prior. Don’t know if would be back as 1st group out also sharing clubs causing slow play, no control of course
Didn't Finish Round
Course was well maintained. Staff was nice. Unfortunately we were asked to leave at about 8:45. This is well past the listed operating hours so no hard feelings with the course/staff on that front however we only made it to the 14th hole due to having teams of 3s in front of us the entire time. The course can only do so much to encourage pace of play but this is rough. Our tee time was 5:33 so just be aware if youre looking at later time slots. You might only get 9 in.
