About
The public 18-hole layout, formerly known as the Austin Country Club, was designed by renowned architects, J. Press and Perry Maxwell. It served as teaching grounds for Harvey Penick, as well as Tom Kite and Ben Crenshaw.
Riverside Golf Course challenges and delights players of all skill levels with its mature trees and scenic water hazards. Its convenient location, five minutes from downtown Austin and 10 minutes from the airport, makes it a serene escape without having to leave the city.
Getting there : From Austin, take IH-35 south to Riverside Drive. Go east on Riverside Drive 2.2 miles to Grove Blvd. and turn left. The course entrance is to the left before the community college.

Two long par 4s (15 & 16) make for a meaty finish. Photo submitted by BrandonTuckerGA on 06/12/2017
Worst I have seen. The grass was so dry and non existent that the ball rolled forever.
Worst corse I have played on for a public course.
Barely tolerable. Maybe its the time if the year.
Course is in terrible shape
Worst conditions I’ve ever seen, 1/3 back nine flooded and pace of play was ridiculous and no one ever drives the golf course to maintain pace of play either.
Too many leaves
Decent course, but too many leaves on the fairway. Makes it hard to see your ball no matter what color it is.
Great Warm-Up Course
Most hole layouts are pretty straight. A little windy on my day of play, blowing leaves everywhere causing me to lose balls and then find them on return trips from other holes. Other than the hard rain hours before I played, course is in great shape for this time of year. I call this a great practice course for working on elements of your game.
Great round after a huge storm
They got the course in playable conditions quickly. Good value. Great staff.
