Friars/Presidio at Riverwalk Golf Club

We were there for 5.5 hours because people in front were taking forever. Didn’t see a marshal the entire day so I imagine they don’t have one. Conditions of fairways were also poor. I played this course 5 years ago and it wasn’t like that.

Greens Pretty good. Fairways and tee boxes not maintained well at all. Felt like a typical muni.

Greens were perfect but the fairways have a few more weeks of growing in to be nice. Overall a fantastic course for the $$.

Not fair to rate this course today with all the rain that we have had. I would recommend overseeing; too much bare muddy spots. Greens were in excellent condition. Besides greens, this course has never had fertilizer applied? Pro shop staff were excellent.

River bed could have a major cleaning of all the tulleis!

GolfNow pricing was perfect!

Still got our 18 in today.

Pace of play was terrible, told Marshall three times,group in front of us was three holes nehind.They should hire Marshall's with balls.

There was only one problem at this course but it's a big one, the fairways from The Tee Box to the green are in horrible condition. the greens are normal, the starter very friendly and professional. The course has been sold and plans are to build a major housing complex on it. the neighbors are fighting it and because of the fight construction won't begin for quite some time so you think they would maintain the course properly like it once was

I paid too much to begin with; my fault for deciding the night before. But, the course is in no shape to be charging that much. The greens have disease in too many places. The effects from the rain a few weeks ago was still evident even on the fairways. Maintenance is sorely lacking. To top it off they changed around the course to be one 18 hole and one 9 hole. And the 18 hole starts on most difficult hole. Not fun anymore.

Course was muddy after rain. Restaurant and service was really good. COurse seems to be improving.

Although I did not play well do to physical issues, the course conditions did not help. Fairways were muddy with many patches of no grass. Greens were peppered with ball marks and bald spots. I was told by the locals they had had a lot of rain lately. That explains the mud but not the bald spots. Will be a while before I play this course again. Used to be 27 holes, now 18. Interesting layout.

This course has no business being open. I understand there was recently some torrential rain that fluided the course but this wasn’t my first time to this course. It was obvious that management has given up on this golf course. While playing for 4 1/2 hours we didn’t see ONE employee working on the course. Cart path only was observed but in reality, many of the fairways were two or more inches of mud so walking out to your ball is a huge mess. The greens have potential but are sill in major need of TLC. I’m sorry RIVERSIDE, RIP…

The course had a tournament scheduled on a Sunday mid-day. This ruined the round. We ended up stopping with 4 holes to play. Otherwise course was in great condition.

First, I realize that many courses in San Diego are having financial problems and/or have closed, but there is absolutely no excuse for having greens that are like a fairway. At least, if you are having problems, the course owes the player a disclaimer prior to playing the course. Their greens were so slow, that they were essentially unplayable. Had I been advised prior to tee off what the problem was and the purpose of this issue, then I would have reduced my expectations of the round, but there was no information provided. Why should it be incumbent on the patron to find out after paying fees that we are not getting the product that we paid for. Totally unacceptable and a ripoff. And on top of that there is no recourse with Golfnow. I rarely use this site anymore, so another strike against them.

played as a single on 10/8/2018 in the afternoon...have not been there for at least 6 months,I knew that the friars course had been let go to keep mission/presido in good shape..or at least I thought that was the idea.Alot of the times the putting green is not a good repersentantion of the actual greens but this time it was..very slow/furry(needed a cut) and full of bare spots/different grasses growing in.The fairways had alot of bare and thin areas and to be fair Presido was in better shape than mission..for the money I paid 35.00 could have gone to cottonwood for better conditions of the course though the clubhouse and carts and driving range are far superior but if good golf conditions are what you are looking for ...I would look elsewhere at this time...it is a shame because there was a time when riverwalk was high on a players list.

We had a nice time playing the course. A little slow, the group ahead of us was playing the blue tees when they should have been playing the white. Almost got hit by a ball when we did not hear FORE.
