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.

Disappointing, very long round

I love this course, but played this round in drizzle which would have been ok but we were started behind a Shotgun tournament group that had 2 groups( 8 players) starting on each hole. This meant lengthy waits on every shot the whole round which lasted 5 hours and 20 minutes! Miserable day and not much help from marshals who seemed unable to move the tournament along, this after assuring me at the start they would allow no more than 15 mins per hole for the tournament group. So disappointing.

What could have been

Its been along time since we played here and my 4 some really enjoyed the layout but we were not informed that greens had recently been sanded! Not even on GN web site...bummer I missed 5 putts under 5ft and it mad what could have been a great round a bummer. Ill be back in summer to see if it has healed up.

1 other note: I paid on line full amount on line (thru GN) and when I arrived he billed me more money for cart use ?? It felt very fishy and has never happened before like that??? What's up w/that....

Good but...

Attractive, well-maintained track. But the pace of play is glacial.

Perhaps handicap-based tee guidance would help.

Beautiful Long Coarse!

Had an exceptional day playing 18 with little brother. I live so close and never made it out to RW. It’s my knew favorite.

Pick a tee time after 1:30 and save 25% cart rental and two players was $175

Nice greens

Greens were in great shape and rolling well. Most tee boxes were like hitting out of the rough and hadn’t been cut in a while. Fairways were very patchy and in pretty bad shape.

good course, marshall needs to do better

We had the 2nd tee time of the day and a marshall told us to jump the first group because they were 4 walking players and we were 2 riding, so being our first time playing here we did what was told, we maintained a good pace only slowed down when at the back nine we were told it was car path only by another marshall(dog in cart) and that we needed to drive back to the cart path. At that point was the only time we saw the group behind us wait while we finished on the green. A couple holes later the same marshall the guy with a dog comes back to us telling us the we jumped the guys behind and we were slowing the pace and they are better golfers and they are regulars at that course so they should play thru, all of this while we are on the green, not a suggestion he was telling us they are playing thru, i told him about the other marshall telling us to jump them that that wasnt our choice, he didnt care. At that point we grabbed our ball from the green didnt finish the hole and went to the next hole, we finished the round with out seeing the group behind us like we did the front nine. we ended playng a 2hr and 40 min 18 hole round thats not a slow pace. This dog marshall (had a dog in his cart) ruined the vibes of the day just because his regulars buddies had to wait maybe 2 minutes for one hole.

shabby

this course could be awesome, but it seems like no investment is being made in the course conditions. Seems like a very shabby muni, but still charge over $100.

Rough wintertime condition in spite of price increases this year

We are back to drought wintertime conditions at Riverwalk. Only one (recent) measurable rain since April 2024. Many bare areas in the fairways. Dead sod where it was put in but not provided sufficient water. Given the rate increases this year the condition is disappointing. The carts are newer. A lot of staff turnover as usual but we've always been treated well in spite of this so they must have good hiring screening.
