9th Hole Mission Photo submitted by canyonman59 on 12/06/2012
Good layout but course needs some maintenance
The course has a pretty good layout...chalenging for beginners, a good test for intermediate golfers, experienced golfers can score here. The greens are very true but can be tricky to read. They're well-maintained and pretty slick. The biggest issue for me with this course is that some of the fairways need maintenance...they could use some aeration and re-seeding. There are a few holes with bare spots that need attending to. This course is a pretty good track, but they need to make sure they don't let it get rundown...if they fix those fairway areas that require some work, this course could be consdered very good value for the money.
Rip off
The fact that this course charges over $100 on the weekend should be cause for uproar. This is a $50-$70 course at most. Absolutely insane price gouging out of a course that is trying to make all the money it can before being turned into housing. Shame shame shame.
Great Layout
Riverwalk is conveniently located near downtown San Diego. The course is low on frills but has a solid layout with great undulating greens and a creek that winds through course. Course was very wet and cart path only, not sure it was necessary since most golfers ignored.
Directions
The course could use a little better direction information on the course. When walking it isnr always clear which way to go .
Great deal
Paid 35 and walked worth the money greens are excellent keep trying this course could be good
Fast greens!
Awesome condition. Great to see they’re really taking care of it and doing everything the right way with care. The greens were the best I’ve seen. Definitely recommend getting out there as soon as you can. It was a fun, tough round.
Fantastic Course
I loved the course. It was my 1st time playing here. There are not too many trees so the greens are wider and it's easier to spot your ball after swings. Overall, great location and the course is well taken care of.
Great course
Great course random wet kinda muddy spots on some fairways but, overall a nice course and would definitely play it again
Overpriced
Can’t believe how much they charge now, almost a 40% increase in greens fees over the last year. The quality and condition of the course can’t justify this price. Maybe the worst bang for your buck in San Diego.
First time at Riverwalk
Needed help with GPS settings as Friars nine is no longer in play (but still offered on GPS defaults).
Also had to look up rating/slope on website after the round — that information should be on every scorecard. Shouldn’t have to search for it.

Amen brother. Used to play here for $55-$60 on the weekends. You would think the cart would be included when you pay $100 a round on a course like this, but nope!
