Riverside Golf Course

Riverside GC was a pleasant surprise in the heart of Austin. It was a short Uber ride in, but the driver/map was a little confusing because its embedded in a school area. The practice area with stoneworks reminded me of the Lido Island GC in Venice, Italy. Course conditions were acceptable for a busy city course. Its a little dry now and some of the approaches were hard pan.

Overall it was enjoyable for a great value.

It’s a fun course to play definitely worth visiting.

This is by far the worst course I have ever played in Texas. Literally every green is in complete disrepair with sand and dirt in multiple spots. The tee boxes are a joke; completely just dirt and sand and off level. The fairways are so beat up and pitted that even a perfect shot down the middle will bounce out and leave you looking for your ball. The slight rain from the day before cannot excuse ridiculous conditions like these. How can anyone be willing to pay $50+ to play this nightmare dogpark of a course? We played it two years ago and it was not nearly this bad so something has happened over the last two years to make this course a ghetto. YIKES!

Certainly a good price for a municipal

Course. Nice practice green with multiple holes. No driving range; just a net area to hit into. This is a traditional older style course with mostly straight fairways. Multiple greens had problem areas covered with green sand/seed?. Course was certainly busy on a Thursday. Pro shop gentleman was very friendly and informative.

The fairways were in good shape, and the greens were also quite nice. Since the course is heavily wooded, I’d recommend playing a safe layup if you miss your tee shot. I had a 2 PM tee time and grabbed a hot deal for $45. I’ve added this to my favorite courses and plan to visit often

Fairways and Greens always 5 star. However, the Tee boxes are inconsistent.

This will not be the nicest course you’ll ever play but the staff is always accommodating and the greens are in decent shape especially for the price. The fairways are forgiving but you will get some challenging opportunities as well. Couldn’t recommend it enough for beginners like myself.

I like playing at Riverside, you know what you're getting into and it is cheaper than most places. The course is what it is in the spring, but it is the right amount of challenge for my below average golf game.

Course was in decent condition. The greens were well maintained. Pace of play was very good.

You can hit in the middle of the fairway, but you will still be hitting off of hard-packed dirt, or the occasional mud pit of course. Good luck finding any grass to hit out of - rough, fairway, tee box...doesn't matter. Even the foot wedge can't save you in this God-forsaken wasteland of a course. Greens are pitted or have sand bunkers of their own which is fun to navigate while putting for some I suppose. Half the cost of private courses at 40 bucks each is nice, as long as you don't expect to play any real golf. With the layout and average player attending I also think I heard "Fore" more times in one round than the last couple years combined. If you're balling on a budget and choose to whack at some dirt here, look alive and God speed.

Fairways grass (Brown) winter dormant . Tee boxes are being resod, some areas are uneven.

Greens are in good cofition.

Layout nice. Fairways are marginal right now. Lots of bare spots and grass is dead in spots. Will probably improve after recovering from the recent bad weather. Greens in good shape.

Staff always friendly and efficient.
