Length 6550 yards

Rating 71.7

A collaborative effort by Ted Robinson Sr. and his son has resulted in a most scenic championship layout. The championship 18 meanders through mature eucalyptus trees, tall palms, and majestic oaks. Sparkling ponds contrast with the dozens of white sand bunkers and the emerald green, Bermuda grass fairways.

Perfect Golf day

Course was 5 stars on a beautiful SD cloudy day all day. i was a single and was paired up with three strangers. By the end of the round you would have thought we had played together before. My best enjoyable of round of golf in years. Thanks Sincerely to Riverfront for the perfect set up and Thanks to RJ. John and Glen. Hope to run into you guys again. And last a Big Happy Bday to John turning 40 today..

Perfect weather
Used cart

Understaffed

The cashier guy was busy on a call.

The starter was nowhere to be found.

Where the heck are the workers that they are not doing their jobs?

The golfing experience is more than just the round. We need you guys to be there on your posts, available, knowledgeable, supplied and ready. We are the paying guests.

Waste of money

I played here about two years ago. Stopped going because the course was in terrible shape. Now they jacked the price way up so I thought maybe they put some work into the course. Played here a couple weeks ago and it is the exact same. An absolute rip off. Customer service is even worse. I will never play here again... even if it was 50 bucks.

Dawn tee time. Beautiful time to enjoy the course

Booked early morning tee time on an app. As I was visiting from out of town and had meetings booked for most of the day.

The tee time was before sunrise. A bit too early actually. Sunrise was 6:42 . By about 6:25 it was possible to see well enough to play. The course is beautiful in the early morning.

Conditions were quite good. Many continuing efforts at repair and maintenance on fairways during off season.

Better care needed

Great greens but fairways have tons of work needed and muddy spots.

Lots of trash that can easily be picked up!

Many tee boxes are not even trimmed. This was terrible to me!

The guy in restaurant needs simple retraining in just being nice! Not sarcastic.

Overpriced bad conditions don’t play

Staff is rude , guys at the front counter have terrible customer service , course is in bad shape very poor greens and fairways are blocked off , won’t play here again , food was mediocre , it’s at maximum a 70$ round during prime time , carts are basic for the price they charge , cottonwood , Sycuan are much better courses for less money … in the end the staff at this course is terrible the owner definitely needs to invest in customer service training , not 1 single person from proshop , starter , restaurant or bar was friendly … only the maintenance guy was friendly saying Buenos Dias at the turn … save your money go somewhere else

The prices here are ridiculous.

The most average golf course ever, not better than mission trails, or enagic. The hot deal was $40 five months ago and they haven’t done anything new. I’m never playing here again for the price. Absolute crooks with those increases.

mediocre. Definitely overpriced

Played this course at 2 PM on a Tuesday with a hot deal they gave me a free cart, 75 bucks. Probably 15–20% of the fairways and tea boxes seem like they are damaged, under repair, or just hard pan dirt. Paired up with one other guy And was fortunate to have nobody behind us and twosomes in front of us so pace of play was great. The greens were medium speed. A little on the shaggy side which made them not roll very true, but not terrible. Overall, I would give the greens a 3.5 out of 5.0.

Worth Playing Again

River Walk is a very nice course. It is clear it is undergoing some renovations yet it is still very challenging and fun to play. Will do better the next time I play the course..
