Riverside Golf Course

I was in town for some down time, and this was my first time at this course. The staff (one guy) in pro shop was very cool and friendly. He recommended a few restaurants and such. I liked the course. My only real complaints were the greens were heavily sanded and it was BYOB and there was no grill open. Other than that, its a decent track that I would like another crack at some day.

Some of the greens were in pretty bad shape and definitely need a lot of work. The course itself was great for a beginner like myself super open and hard to lose your ball

Paid $50.00 for a mediocre experience. I've been playing Riverside for years. This was the 2nd worse condition I've seen.

Course is open and easy to play as a beginner but about half the greens are in really bad shape with just large pockets of sand

Played a solo round and was behind a big group but they let me play through. Staff is always friendly and price is nice compares to other courses. Greens are iffy but when I played they were going n good shape minus hole 3.

First few holes (from the first) the greens were in really bad shape sand all over. No driving range, they have a big net you can hit balls into. I recommend use your own balls there. They have some but are in pretty bad condition. Their practice putting green is really good but def doesn’t translate to the course. This was my first time playing here probably won’t go back unless there was a good deal on Golf now. Pace of play was good not many people out, probably because it was 103 degrees out.

Riverside is a great muni. If you’re looking to get out with some friends for a fun round play here. Some greens and tee boxes are doomed and are sand but besides that course is fine. Also is BYOB which is pretty cool

Course was fun and it was in pretty good condition.

Greens are barely hanging in there. At least they place the flag in areas of good grass for putting. Get it close or you will have a bumpy line.

Fairways are rock hard with patches of decent grass. You basically need to be center fairway every time to stay in the good grass, otherwise you will be punished with rocks/hard solid dirt/tree roots/etc. sand traps are full of rocks and difficult to get out of due to being firm sand.

They recently (within the last year I believe) replaced their old golf carts with updated models which makes the comfort a lot better experience. Came with a slight price increase but as a rider I can appreciate it. Overall decent if you can’t find a tee time at the other muni’s.

Course was in good shape . Greens been good all year .

When I moved here 4 years ago, Riverside was a 2 out of 5 stars at best. Since new management came in, they’ve made some incredible improvements to the greens, and it’s a course I actually enjoy playing. Jimmy Clay always took precedence, but I wouldn’t waste my time or money out there unless I’m hitting the range. Riverside has definitely made its way towards the top of best muny greens in Austin.

Played this course several times a year. Always enjoy it. Conditions sure have improved year to year. Keep up the good work.

Good golf course for a muni.

Golf course in very good condition, they do need to sod cut and level A LOT of the tee boxes. Fairways were in overall good condition, same for the greens(a few bare spots that were sanded) but not anything to make me not want to play here again soon. In the summer 90+ degrees there is a lot of shade trees, and they do have ample cold water jugs in many of the tee boxes. My only "complaint" is that they do not have a beverage cart that i know of, and the 3 times I've been there, the little grill inside the golf shop building wasn't open. Alway like to support local on course grills but could not. They do sell cold non alcoholic beverages in the golf shop. Putting green great shape, no driving range but does have a 3 station hitting net to loosen up(use your own balls) they are not provided.

Definitely a good course for the people, not fancy but a good test of golf.

Just my 2 cents, but worth it.
