Riverwood Golf Club

We played an afternoon round at Riverwood and besides the heat (and the greens were just punched about 2 weeks ago), the course is in really nice shape. It's a challenging course from the back tees but very fair to the ladies. My drive from the Blue tees was often only about 100 yards past the ladies tee so my wife really enjoyed her chance to out drive me!

Greens were just aerated not fair to rate the course

Great course but aerated… Wouldn’t been nice to know before booking and showing up… but still always like this course and staff! A+

Had a great time until the weather storm hit got 11 holes in before lightning came through.. Was the course in good shape? It’s Riverwood, need to say more… Always a great place to play Kudos to the staff and course superintendent

Grabbed the 1:00 Hot Deal with my buddy, had the course to ourselves. Seen absolutely no one. Played in a little over 3 hours. Love this course, my favorite in the area.

Good course, but greens still showed aeriation, which is understood this time of year

Course advertised as rated tops in Fl and best in SW Fl. Did not live up to this as just an average course and far from best in area let alone state of Fl. Had just been aerated so greens were rough and putts did not roll true. Was not advertised as recently aerated as that should have resulted in a discount rate from the $65. Course was not worth that price in its condition.

Course was a bit wet in some spots, and you could tell grass wasn't able to be cut in some area due to it. But overall course was in great shape even after a recent aeration.

Summer time..airefication... love it cause don't need to make the putt... within the leather.. have fun

We had a terrible encounter with the staff at Riverwood. We were eaten by thousands of mosquitos, which they reluctantly admitted they were aware of, yet they gave no warnings, no bug spray (not even to buy). The staff (John) suggested we call back for a raincheck, so we left and treated our many bite/welts. But when we called back, as suggested, morning staff refused to honor the need for a rain check. The staff person on the phone was extremely rude, dismissive and unsympathetic. He refused to do anything whatsoever to help make it right, and expressed no sympathy. He stated that since we paid a twilight rate, we should get nothing under any circumstances, apparently because that made us unworthy customers for fair treatment? Obviously, we won't be returning.

The State and City should investigate the handling of the mosquito problem at Riverwood. This course needs to take responsibility, spray, and provide bug repellent, at least for purchase. And they should warn twilight players of the issue, not simply take their money and run.

First time at Riverwood. Challenging and generally in good condition other than the recently aerated greens.
