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
Good course.
Good course moderately challenging, but tee times are too close back to back. End up waiting at next tee box for 5-10 mins for the ground waiting and the group already in play. Paid for 18 holes and only got in 9 due to the holdups.
Needs a 19th hole
Decent course for the price. Fun to play and most patrons seem to be good people. The issue is the restaurant is closed and they don’t have drinks available at all. No beer carts, half way house, nothing so bring what you want to snack on and drink.

Lower prices
When a school is playing there that’s fine, but please lower the price. That was an unnecessary 5 hour round on a Monday because of how many people were there and poor Marshall enforcement with slow play.

Early Tee time
I enjoy playing 1st thing in the morning. Fast paced round, around 3 hours

Okay course for the price
Wanted to play 18 only got in 9. Ended up playing solo and got stuck behind a group of 4 that was slow paced. Joined the group of 3 behind me for the 8th and 9th hole. Then it started raining so had to cut my game short. Overall the course is decent. A-lot of noise from the surrounding city streets, but this course is mildly challenging.
