Don’t forget your pull cart

Got there at 7 AM and was told they probably would not have carts for us. Unless you live within a couple miles and have your own cart or don’t mind walking I don’t recommend playing here. Can’t say much about the course as we left and never did play it.

Fast Round Great Staff

Greens softer than most - left some ball marks

Fairways good

No real rough just some bare lies

Traps not great but better than most - though no racks

Played as a single and was let through by:

3some - after a couple of holes

2some - after a few holes when they were looking for ball(s)

Single walker - immediately

So just over a 3 hour round.

Vnince who checked me in was great and Tom who retrieved the GPS I left was even greater.

Riverview is the toughest of the Sun City courses. It isn’t long, but the greens are what makes this course such a challenge. There is a lot of slope and undulation throughout the greens and if you don’t read the putt well or have proper speed a 3 putt is going to happen. Choose the right club off the tee because you don’t need driver on every tee shot. It’s a fun course if you’re up to the challenge.

Covid restrictions in place. Not allowed to remove flag sticks. Hole liners set so high that some balls went into the hole and popped out. Very good layout challenging greens that were smooth but firm. Fairways great condition

5 star rating...

The course is in great shape. The greens are challenging but in perfect condition. They even have the speed right considering all their undulation. The pace of play was OK but have played quicker on some of the other Sun City courses. Overall though a pleasant golfing experience...

Course Greening Up

Course is getting greener. Still tough with a lot of bare areas in the rough. Greens are consistent. Layout is pretty solid. Staff was very nice. Waited on most tees but played in about 4:30, ok.
