Fairmont Hot Springs Resort - Riverside

About
The Riverside Course is one of two 18-hole championship courses at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort. While both courses share the Rockies as a backdrop, the other golf course, called Mountainside, possesses a more undulating terrain. As its name aptly suggests, the course runs alongside the Columbia River, whose headwaters shaped the design of the course. Each of the par 3s uses the mighty river to defend fiercely guard the greens. There is tremendous variety throughout the golf course, both in length and terrain, which makes it appealing to different skill levels. It is also an excellent walking course that is enhanced even further with mountain and river views. The fifth hole is the course's signature. This tricky hole crosses the river twice. In addition to the two 18-hole courses, there is also a nine-hole par-3 course.

Enjoyable course with beautiful scenery.
It's been a few years since we last played the course. We received a friendly welcome from the staff. The course was in great condition. Greens a little on the slow side. We enjoyed a cold one in Dappers Landing after the game with excellent nachos and top service.
A beautiful course in the Columbia Valley
This course ticks all the boxes. It's in great shape, friendly staff and the pace is well suited
Very Playable
We had a very nice time, greens were in great shape they received shots very well and rolled predictably. Sand traps were a little weak, some with very little sand, so not consistent. Overall in very good shape, and appealing to the eye.
Great Course
Loved this course. Well designed course with wide fairways. Greens were in excellent condition and very fast and challenging. The 6th t-box was a bit challenging to find. Great photo op on the bridge crossing the Columbia River. Would definitely play here again.
Great round. Too bad Golf Now lost our tee time.
When we arrived, the pro shop couldn't find our booking. I showed them my email and they were very helpful, starting us on the back 9 to get us out close to our booked time. The manager mentioned that they had some similar issues with GolfNow in the past, and he was trying to contact them. The course was in excellent condition and pace of play was good. Great marks to the people at Riverside for accommodating us!
Golf course review
We truly enjoyed the course and layout. Had some callanging holes and some forgiving holes. We will play again and recommend it 👍
Great price & a challenge
We have played this course many times and always enjoy the challenge of the completely different nines. The weather was sunny with a light breeze - perfect. we arrived early and were sent off almost immediately. The pace of play was good - we were let through by two foursomes as we were only two. The course was in good shape with the greens being great. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. We will definitely return again and recommend this course to others.
Very nice to play
Early in the year and very nice playing.
However, it seems the online booking over golf now is not working properly. Decline of any payment methods. 🤷🏼♂️
