Staff service

The course was in great shape and for the most part the customer service was fine ..however, when I first arrived and asked for a golf cart, they said I’d have to share. I was a little irritated as I did not sign up for that.. but ultimately they did allow me to have my own cart.

Nice layout

All went well although fairways really need mowing...Long grass...Greens are difficult but in good shape...

Course ranger is not a friendly guy even when course play is moving quickly...

A VERY nice surprise

Yes it is a an average Sun City layout but wait for the greens to send your score to the moon! It isn't because they are unfair or ill-kept it is because they are big, undulating and very fast....so take your time in assessing your putts. Better yet - land your approach next to the pin. The tract is straightforward and hazards can be played around but getting to the green is only half the battle. VERY enjoyable round.

Great course for an average golfer

We golfed 18 holes today. Temps in low 70's with decent winds. Lovely day. Got paired up with a wonderful gentleman. The course is in nice shape. Greens were good but fast. Open fairways were relatively flat. Water comes in play on a few holes. We would definitely come back. Not sure about the challenge for a scratch golfer....we are far from scratch.

Great course and friendly staff

Our 2nd time here this year and our was very enjoyable. The pin placement is always challenging, and forces you to plan your shots around the green. And those bunkers! They are always happy to snag your ball as you approach the flag. Never boring! Was just a little slow today.

Nice track

I played it after it had rained all the previous day. Surprisingly the course played very well and the greens were fast. We played in about 4 hours 15 minutes. Quite a bit of bunkers and water can come into play on a few holes.

Terrible Condition

First time playing this course, picked it because of the good rating. How it got a 4 stars is a mystery to our group. The greens belong at a par king putt, putt. The only thing the greens are missing is a windmill. Fairways are cut too short and rough is total hard pan.

Fire the starer!!!

The moron behind the desk is a total , jerk and extremely rude. He runs around like a chicken with his head cut off. We will never golf rhere again because of him. Compared to the other Sun City couse employees who rate at 10's this guy is a total zero

Too much....

Overall course was in pretty decent condition with one BIG exception, way, way, way too much sand was in the traps. Management needs to do a better job of maintaining their sand traps especially if you want to speed up play a bit.....

5 hour round

Riverview is a decent layout but this year lies are generally tight and bermuda is completely worn out in high traffic areas around the greens leaving golfers with a difficult chip out of mud if you miss the green. Greens are good and accept the ball beautifully.Bunkers are full of very deep very heavy sand so if you get out in 1 shot, consider yourself lucky. Pace of play was 5 hours. No Marshal in sight.
