fun and challenging course

The course was in nice shape. The fairways are wide enough to bomb the driver. The greens are really undulated , the greens rolled true, Pretty challenging if your not on the proper side of the cup. The staff was professional and attentive. They also had a nice 19 th hole . The course was busy, but the pace of play was still great. {moved smooth.}

Dollar for dollar this course is a 10.

There is no marshalling on the course but then again I didn’t see a need for one. Play was steady and back in the car under four hours.

Friendly staff all around, greens keeping is great. Greens hold well on approach and the speed is very quick. I heard they rebuilt the course a couple years ago and offer my complements on a great job.

Only negative is amenities are short on the offering and there is no course food or beverage cart!

But if your going there to golf the bring your a game.

We Played to Fast

I guess we played the front to fast. They have crossover tee times. We left after 9 holes. We would've been waiting 1 hour to tee off the back 9. Staff told us we played to fast.....haha

Much improved

I noticed the improvement in the sand traps since I last played the course. They seemed to have loosened the sand so it is more playable. Of course being in 5 improved my chances of rating them. The weather improved as did the golf and am looking forwarding to my next round here.

Nuce layout / course in great condition

We really enjoyed our round. The pace of play was good as we finished in under 4 hrs. Greens were in great condition. Fairways and rough areas were in very good condition too. Will play this course again.

Mixed review

The fairways and greens were in good shape but if you were in many of rough areas there was no grass. Even when there was grass in the rough it was cut so short you were playing off dirt. Also when the course was completely redone I immensely enjoyed the sand in the sand traps. Would suggest you take an effort to once again heavily rake the sand to make it more playable.

Awesome public track

I enjoy the sun city courses as this and others are always in excellent conditions with a reasonable green fees. This course has some tough greens with much undulations and slope and well bunkered. Most of the course was wide open but about 6 or 7 very tough holes to make it a excellent challenge.

Great course

This course requires the player to use their best putting skills if they wish to score well. The greens are fabulous. Very undulating and true. The pace of play is typical for Sun City but, that is understood. Will play this course again and so should you. Good iron play is the key.

Good Easy Course.

They just finished over seeding so greens were putting very slow, other than that, this is a great short par 72 course. Course was nice, and staff was friendly.

Good day

Course is always in good shape. They were doing some maintenance for overseeding the next day but no issues for us. Lot of people out but kept moving along at a good pace. Paired up with a twosome and another single and all good guys and we had a great day. My only negative about this course is the staff in the pro shop. Kinda snotty. But who cares. I play golf and they work. Screw em'

Great Course

The course is in very good shape and it was worth the price. My issue was with the 3 people i had to play with. No course etiquette. Loud.. All over the course.. No regard for the pace of play. I felt bad for the threesome behind us. They were waiting on every tee and fairway. Made for a very long and unenjoyable day.

Sand!

Great day for an early round. Cooler & cloudy, humid, & the course was in great shape. Riverview had perfect bunkers, which is, unfortunately, a rarity for Phoenix summertime golf. Compliments to the superintendent & staff. Totally enjoyed this course & will be back soon.
