Riverwood Golf Club

This was our first time playing here. It was a great course and very pretty. We played with other 1st time players`.It would have helped if we played with someone who knew the course. Carts don't have GPS and there are some blind shots and it would have helped if we knew where we were hitting.

This was such a great course. Greens were fast and true to read. Great fairways. A real challenge if you don't hit straight. Definitely recommend for everyone.

Course was in beautiful condition!

Everything was excellent except pace of play.

Course has lots of trouble so I can understand the pace of play problem but still no excuses people! MOVE ALONG!

Ranked #1 in Florida and #15 in the U.S. for a reason..it's that good! A real joy to play. Challenging layout in great condition and the staff from the pro shop to the 19th hole is tremendous!! Can't wait to play it again.

Played twice in a week and incredible layout and see why one of the best in SW Florida. Challenging but fair, greens fast and true. Staff was friendly and practice facilities were a great surprise. Highly recommended

I'm not going to leave a lengthy review. No need. Course is always outstanding. Considering the class of the facilities, I find the prices to be fair. And they don't oversubscribe the course with players.

This a great course to play. Watched the Buckeye Clemson Game, played at 7:40 am. Had a bad ball striking day . But... Go Bucks!

While Riverwood is a good looking course, it is very unfortunate that the course uses only noisy, polluting, smelly, gas golf carts for guest transportation around the course. Do golfers enjoy announcing their arrival at every tee and green as they approach with the loud, revving engines?

It is surprising an 'award-winning' course would not provide guests with first class, quiet, clean, electric carts. Apparently, ownership is not interested in creating a more upscale, comfortable, and acceptable means of transport for guest golfers. Following one of those gas golf carts is like following a garbage truck, while following an electric cart is like following a Tesla. Needless to say, your game and comfort are improved with electric carts.

Not only does the noise contribute to players having to listen to that racket all day, but the exhaust of these 75 gas carts can harm the local environment, especially that of the adjacent wildlife, river preserve. And if you are following one of these gas carts, you will be inhaling gas exhaust all day.

While you may enjoy playing the course, you will need to be prepared to use loud, inferior, gas golf carts all day. If all 75 gas carts are running, the revving noise is nearly constant throughout the course. It is similar to listening to a compressor running all day.

This is the only course in the area that uses loud, polluting, gas carts, so there are certainly other options if you want a quieter, more comfortable, and relaxing day at the golf course.

The course was in great shape due to being over seeded a couple weeks ago. A little wet but that’s not gendering the overall condition of the course. The staff and member we played with were very nice. Played from the blacks which were about 7000 yards and ended up being a bit easy but still had challenging holes. Small/skinny greens makes for a ball strikers paradise. Greens rolled amazing and had some good pace. Overall loved the course and will be playing there again before we leave.

The course is real nice, played it many times over the years

Fairways are soggy, hitting drives in fairways and their sticking , no rollout! Greens unreasonably slick.

On in regulation many times and putts must be babied. For the average golfer it is too quick. I love the course and I'll play again.
