Mission/Friars at Riverwalk Golf Club

I played this course a few months ago and they had the groups packed together so closely that we had 4 groups waiting on a par 3. The exact thing happened the previous time we played the course. With the EXTREME slow pace of play, we had to pack it up after 9 holes. We went to the clubhouse to complain, and apparently so did half the other groups on the course that day because all the people in front of us and behind us had the same issues. They gave us all vouchers for 9 holes.

Here's the kicker. The vouchers expire in 3 months. So when my buddy and I finally were able to get out on the course again today (beyond 3 months) they had expired. We figured they would be nice enough to honor them considering. Nope. Taylor, the young man at the front desk was not helpful. I explained that I rarely get the chance to get to the course because of my family obligations. I also told him I did not think it was a great way to run a business by cramming in as many players as possible and when players complain, give them vouchers in which some will expire. His annoyed response was, "it's a popular course."

Wow. This use to be our go to course. We even would have work events here. I gave you a chance to redeem yourself today and you failed.

I had not played Riverwalk in over a year.

Decided to play this month and I was sad to see the fairway conditions on most holes.

MY son & I really enjoyed playing there, but after this last round, I will look elsewhere.

I really hope they can bring it back to really good playing conditions.

Very nice layout with some pretty holes on the front nine. At full price it is overpriced for the condition of the course which is not great. Greens are very consistent though and fairly pure but the fairways are rough. If you can get a deal it can be one of the nicer rounds available in SD.

The greens were in good condition. Unfortunately, the pitch marks are often not repaired by the players. Bunkers and fairways were very hard fairways with little grass. Too bad, since the layout of the couse, with 3x9 holes would be really good.

The course is starting to dry out but it is still in pretty good shape for this time of year. If anything the greens are a little bit spongy. Hole #3 is in pretty rough shape because they are repairing the turf and much of it is roped off to carts. The rest of the course is very playable.

For a Wed morning price was high and the course was in sad shape . My local public course 6 bucks for seniors 9 holes walking looking better all the time.

I played lots of course all over the country. This course is probably a worse course I ever played. Definitely, I would never go to play this course again neither recommend to anyone. I'm very disappointed.

Played with some awesome regulars Good play all around. Fantastic skill displayed amongst this 4some. I Recommend to play here as a single or bring your mates. I am coming back and gonna kill it again Woo hoo thanks to the Cart girls visits. We couldn’t have done it without you.

A must to Play this course Thank You for the opportunity to play here.

River Walk is a nice course. It’s located in the middle of Mission Valley with all the hustle and bustle of the business and tourists. But you would never know all that is going around you. It’s a challenging course with plenty of water and sand traps. It’s plays well for a seasoned golfer. I recommend this course.

Had a blast today playing these two courses. Would recommend it to friends and family.

Can’t wait to play there again.

The course has some very good parts and some not so good parts.

Played behind a tournament so it was brutally slow to start but the starter suggested that we move over tio the Friars nine to finish the round. Great move. The Mission nine was in good shape but the greens were a little spongy and kind of slow. The Friars nine is a mess and most of the fairways are roped off but the tees and greens were OK. It was worth it and probably turned a five hour round into a little over four.

Used to play this course regularly. Usually a 5 hour round minimum on weekends. They dont tell you when you book your tee time theres a 48 man tournament going out 10 minutes before you tee up. Friars is a backyard quality course, Presidio and Mission have ground under repair every other hole. The greens are well maintained but this course used to be one of my favorites. Probably wont play here again for a while.

Great greens, traps in good shape, could use a little more care in the fairways, good mix of short and long holes
