Riverside Golf Course

About
Situated along Florida's Gulf Coast, Riverside Golf Club in Ruskin is part of a peaceful retirement community. At just over 6,100 yards from the tips, the golf course is on the short side but it still offers an enjoyable round. From the back tees, the course actually presents quite a formidable test. The layout meanders along a creek before wandering across idyllic farmland and finishing along the river bluffs overlooking Hayes Bayou. The diverse terrain provides an array of scenery as well as a variety of different challenges. Water hazards come into play on several holes and there are several strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides, waiting to swallow errant shots. Riverside Golf Club's layout combines more difficult holes with player-friendly features, which makes it approachable for players of any skill level.

Day Before My Birthday Round
Set up a round with my nephew and couple of friends. Had a great time as always staff was friendly and professional. Course was in great shape and pace of play was Birthday
Fun day
THIS COURSE IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND ME AND MY WIFE ENJOYING THIS COURSE TEE BOXS ARE SET UP FOR THE RIGHT DISTANTS FOR ANY HANDICAP
Nice course
Played last year and wasn’t impressed, went back this year and they have made great improvements !
Dry
Course is very dry due to no rain and shortage of water
Greens in good shape
Will be back soon
Good value
We were playing as a foursome, had to let 3 singles through, kind of a pain but still played in good time.
Greens were in good shape, but like most of the other courses, tee blocks and fairways were dry.
On 18 some lunatic came flying out of his house screaming about us trespassing on his property. A ball tricled on the his lawn by a couple inches, I reached over picked it up. I swear this crazy dude sits waiting for people to get close so he can have a meltdown.
Greens In Good Condition
Midday, mid-week round took exactly four hours playing as a foursome.Did let three singles play through. Staff (especially Norman) were all friendly and accommodating. Greens and bunkers were in very good condition. For the price this was a good course to play. Hope to return soon.
Riveerside
Another great time had at Riverview very friendly and professional staff. Easy drive from Riverview and pace of play is always good as they have dedicated course marshals ensuring that everybody is not just talking but playing golf......

Not busy after 11:30 am
Most of the time we thought we were the only ones on the course. Started at noon, done at 3:30 pm. Nice wide fairways. Take plenty with you to drink. No place to replenish after first 9. Overall I’d play here again soon.
