Just 7 miles west of downtown Riverside, Paradise Knolls Golf Club tee times will open the door to an 18-hole, par 72, course that plays 6,281 yards from the back tees, and has a slope rating of 117. Designed by Bill Wood, and opened in 1964, the course uses a combination of tree-lined fairways and greenside bunkers to create a fun, and challenging day of golf. The signature hole at Paradise Knolls is the par 3, 12th hole, which plays 230 yards from the tips, and has a green, which slopes front to back, and left to right. There is also one small lake on the course, which sits greenside of the short par 4, 5th hole. The hole plays 275 yards from the back tees, enticing players to try to drive the green, which does have a small opening between the water and a front left bunker.
Many players have made good use of their Riverside golf deals at Paradise Knolls and in addition to the great golf enjoyed their instructional programs, run by PGA Professional staff, the large practice putting green, and their 2,500 sq. ft. clubhouse, which can accommodate up to 150 guests for banquets, tournaments, and weddings. Comments from others following their Riverside tee times paints a nice picture of their experiences at Paradise Knolls Golf Club, finding the course fun and enjoyable.

well kept greens and good features
plays well, kept in really good condition, great staff.
Great Deal , Almost a 9 hole price for a full 18 !
Great course , easy for the so so players who just love to play like me ! Well kept up !
Good variety of situations, challenging but not humbling.
I like this "user friendly" course. It's got plenty of variety, the fairways are wide enough for occasional golfers to keep the ball in play, it's a little under 6,000 yards (forward tees), and can generally be completed in about 4 hours.
Nice ,fair course.
For the price and location, Paradise Knolls is just right for me!!
