Riverside Golf Club

This was the first golf course I have played in the Dallas area since moving down here, so this review comes with that caveat, but I have played at courses all over the country and this course definitely stands up.

Don't expect anything country club type level, but everything is excellent for a public course. The fairways/tee boxes/greens were all in great shape especially for the time of year. The practice facilities had everything you could want. The carts had GPS in them which was awesome. Beverage cart was stocked nicely. Great tent/grill at the turn for beer/food instead of having to run to the club house holding everyone up.

Overall for the money, you can't beat it. Highly recommended.

Greens were excellent, fairways were healing well from being punched, rough was either deep or bare and hard as a rock. Had a great time.

The course looks pretty good. We only had a few problems finding our ball in the rough.

Greens were smooth with no dead patches. Fairways we uniformly nice. My wife and I were paired up with a single who was a very nice companion. Some holes were a little long for my wife's taste (400+ yds from ladies tees)...she also complained that she didn't get enough yardage advantage versus the white tees. Course meanders along the Trinity River with some nice views if your ball takes to you the edges of the fairways.

Golf staff was courteous, but made no effort to pair up groups. F&B staff were not paying attention too much to what you said to them, was more interested in getting your money in the till and you out the door. No marshalls on the back 9 at all. Foursome would not let a twosome go through ahead of me. They waited on every shot from hole 7 to 18.

Bunkers have large rocks, so check your lie before playing a bunker shot.

Fairways are nice and the greens are in great shape.

We have played this course numerous times and the course is in great shape. We were on the 18th tee box when I heard my car alarm go off. When I got to the parking lot I realized someone shattered my driver side door window. Now it makes sense all the signs in the parking lot about locking your car etc...It's hard to believe someone would break in your car in broad daylight, but it did happen. The police department called me back after 2 hours of reporting the crime. Great course, but turned out to be the most expensive round I've played. Be careful playing this course!

Great course, in good condition, fun, and challenging

I have been playing riverside off and on for 17 years now. The currently the course is in the best shape it has probably ever been in. Given the water challenges North Texas has that is no small feat. The course generally will not penalize you severely for errant tee shots except near the river and you have to hook it. The Blue tees of 6 were moved up that day so it took the fun out of that hole, turns it from the #1 hdcp into just a short par 4. All in all, there are other courses around you will pay $20 more for and not find better conditions. The pace of play rating just reflects the Sunday crowd at this course, not the course itself.

It's open and has some challenging holes. Greens were in great shape. Took 5 hrs to play 18 so pace a little slower than I like.

Challenging, well kept fairways greens, and fun course.

Rough off the fairway too thick, can't find your ball 5 feet off the fairway. Course is in great shape, no dead spots, greens rolling true , the sand traps need work, pretty rocky.

Play was very slow, five hour round. The course was fun to play and I will play there again.

This course is a great time when the weather is nice. The course plays fast and the greens are great. Nice mix of different shots off the tees and pin selection. This course is challenging for all levels of play. Great lay out and use of the surrounding area. When you get out on the course you will forget real fast that you are in the city thanks to the lush texas shrubbery.

For the money it's a good value. Folks are nice and follow golfers are good people. Would play it again.

Rewards accuracy; penalizes missing fairways. Course is in good shape, including the greens. Staff is friendly and helpful.

The twilight rate of $25 is a steal. The course is usually not super crowded so it's easy to go off as a single and play 18 with time to spare.

Love the gps in the carts, friendly staff, Nice facilities. Overall I would recommend this course to anyone.

I was in Dallas for work and got stuck over the weekend. Did a quick search for a course and found this gem. It was reasonably priced. As I pulled up to he course the clubhouse looked like a mobile home and the course seemed a bit brown. I was surprised. The clubhouse wasn't much, but I'm not there to hangout in the clubhouse. The fairways were green and the greens were nice. They were recovering from some aeration earlier. All in all though it was a good, challenging course. I would avoid playing late in the day like me. It was 112°!

Before long they will be asking you to not even get ok of the cart to hit the ball. Just to speed up the game more. All in. Effort to get more people on the course to get more money.

First time playing this course and I have to say it was challenging. Several holes have blind tees shot or blind second shots. Relatively hilly. The only bad thing I really have to say about the course is they recently aerated the greens so they didn't roll true. Other than that it was a nice day and not crowded at all. I will play this course again.
