About
Riverside Golf Course is located on the northwest side of Janesville near the Rock River. Opened in 1924, it is one of the oldest courses in the area and over the years it has earned the reputation of being one of southern Wisconsin's best public courses. The course has also been recognized as one of the 50 best public golf values in the country. The gently rolling hills of the landscape provide the course with rolling, tree-lined fairways and large, undulating greens, which are framed by strategically placed bunkers. Riverside is a challenging course but not so difficult that beginners should be intimidated. The classic layout is quite forgiving and versatile enough for a range of skill levels, one reason why it is the host to the Ray Fischer Tournament, one of the Midwest's most prestigious amateur events.

Great Outing
Love this course and enjoyed the outing with some of my best mates!!!
great day of golf
Play this course a couple of times a year. Have never been disappointed. Did not walk, but is a good course for walking.
Wisconsin's Best Kept Secret
This course was one of the more beautiful courses I've been on in the area. Majestic tree lines boarder each challenging and fun hole. Totally recommend.
Great course
Course, as usual, was in terrific condition. On the short side, length wise but doglegs make up for that. Every time I'm in the area I play here and will continue to.
No beverages on course.
I found it weird that no cart drinks on the course. Doing 18 holes with a beverage cart during the holiday weekend was not a great showing for customers. That was the only thing I'd change. Also the Bloody Mary was bad not drinkable.
Great Municipal Course, Superb Staff!!!
We golfed behind an outing which was incredibly slow. Thought it was odd that they'd have a big outing at a municipal course on a weekend. No carts available when we checked in. Driving range is tiny and only irons. Course in excellent shape with quality greens. Some sand traps need more sand and were inconsistent.
Riverside Golf
As always, the course is beautifully maintained and surprisingly dry considering the amount of rain here lately. They obviously spent a lot of time on good drainage.
Challenging course but not gimmicky.
It is always nice to play Riverside. The staff is very friendly and pace of play is typicallying very good. Course is a fun challenge on a mature course without being gimmicky.
Give this course a try!
Great day to golf
We had a great time at Riverside, but my only complain is they had a 4some ahead of us walking.... pace of play was just too slow.
Excellent Value
I always love playing Riverside. It is a really fun layout that gives me a chance to score well making it fun to play. The value is great.
The course is plush
I always forget how nice this course is until I play it. It's plush, the greens are nice, and overall it is one of my favorite courses in the area.
Great experience
Everything was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The course was in great shape. Some holes were real straight forward and some presented stratetic play. Can't wait to return and play again.
Janesville Oldcodger
The course is in wonderful shape. The traps are a little shy of sand but all in all very good shape. I really recommend you try this course.
Great shape
The course was in great shape and the staff is very friendly. Pace of play could have been a little faster but it was a nice day and I had no where to go.
Nice course for the money
Older course so lots of mature trees, nice layout. The back nine is more challenging than the front. Really enjoyed the course.
Nice
Nice course and hole variety
