Riverside reasonable golf

No frills, nothing fancy great for the budget or beginner golfer. White tee's on the front 9 plays shorter than average, plenty of water and green side bunkers moderate elevation challenges, I need to check the yardage stats. Have not played the back Nine, looking forward to play it this season

Pro Shop and Starter Disaster

Had tee time @ 7:40am as I booked it two days prior since only one spot was open.

Once I checked in, I went down to tee box waiting on the other 3 players. A group drove up and said that they had the 7:40am tee time in which I told the that I was the fourth player. The group said that the pro shop added their fourth player and for me to play ahead. After I teed off, the starter said that he couldn’t let me go myself and would had to wait for an opening.

After 3 groups of four teed off in front of me after my tee time, the starter said that there 4 more groups of four and that I would be waiting a while. I told the starter that it was not right and I went back to pro shop.

I told the pro shop that I wanted my money back and he didn’t understand why it was a problem. The lack of common sense and golf courtesy is unacceptable.

I’ll be contacting the city and owner of golf course.

Good Value, Fun Course

I like this course. The ground was pretty hard and parts of the course are a bit rough as the course has had problems with being underwater from flooding at times. The holes are interesting with a lot of variety - dog legs, elevation changes, blind tee shots, risk/reward drives, etc. The greens were quick and in above average condition. I will play it again.

Not terrible

Honestly, still a challenging and fun course. Front 9 was good. Back 9....well it's been many years since I played here and they didn't have the erosion problem then on the three holes that they do now. I'm not sure how they could fix it but otherwise, it was a pretty fun round. Fortunately, their fees aren't anything crazy and pretty easy to book.

Interesting layout

Above average layout due to the very interesting and challenging layout. I’m glad that I joined up with a regular, otherwise it would have been very difficult playing here for the first time.

Not worth the green fee

The front nine was okay. Really tight as I expected but it was fine. The back nine well let's say it left much to be desired. It was extremely rough and not well maintained on holes 15 and 16 all tee boxes were together, the cart path had eroded away and was now a muddy track through the fairway. Hole 16 was quite literally 92 yards. It's fair to say that this course was NOT WORTH THE GREEN FEE. The driving range is also in the middle of three holes and you have to be very vigilant other wise you can quite easily be hit and also lose track of your ball.

Stay on target

This is a fun course with some challenging, unusual holes. Everything is set up off the drive on this course. You slice it and you could be in the water.
Number seven is a completely blind tee shot over the trees. You better hit a draw or your ball is over the fairway and down on a steep hill. Number 18 is a great finishing hole. You need an accurate tee shot and then a mid ironinto the green that’s surrounded by water.

Could be great but...

the fairways are all pretty much dead and if you miss it, you will be hitting off hardpan (assuming it doesn't fall into a giant crack). I love a challenging course and this one is pretty tight with narrow fairways and small greens but they have a bunch of unnecessary bunkers that often times are positioned right int the middle of the fairway. And these bunkers are huge with hardly any rakes to be found so you will likely find yourself in a footprint. The staff is super friendly and the cart girl extremely nice but for $60, there are tons of other courses in better shape at cheaper prices.
