Fun Course
The course is in good shape. The layout allows you to use all of the clubs in your bag. Great value for your money
Love This Course
Riverwatch is always in good shape. The course layout is very good so you get to use every club in your bag.
Hidden Gem
I’m amazed every time I play Riverwatch, just how enjoyable the course is to play. Even though it is very dry right now, the course is in great shape. The layout of the course gives you a lot of “risk/reward” opportunities which makes it very enjoyable.
Thank you for taking the time to review us rowland24. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. RiverWatch Golf Club thanks you!
Great layout
Great layout. Greens are good, bunkers are rough, fairways are average. Too bad its' location is remote, but worth the extra distance to get there.
Hi jerryhouston122, thanks for the great review. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again for another round soon. Thanks for playing RiverWatch Golf Club!
Good time & Value
I found the course well maintained. The bent grass green were in excellent condition. The course presents challenges due to the hills, bunkers and water. The staff was friendly and has a nice bar and restaurant. Well worth it.
Thank you for your review! We will pass along your positive experience to our team at RiverWatch Golf Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Everything you want
From start to finish it’s perfect, has everything you need. My favorite in the middle Tennessee area.

Never Disappointed
Riverwatch is a challenge but not overbearing. I play here often and I’m never disappointed. No matter the season, this track offers something special and different. Great staff. Great cafe and variety of food options. Make the trip and see for yourself.
Hello, we appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back!
Truly a hidden gem
This is truly a hidden gem in Middle TN. Off the beaten path a bit but totally worth the drive. Beautiful course with a challenging layout where accuracy not length is key. Tee boxes were ok. Greens good. Fairways good. I would definitely recommend and can't wait to go back. Staff was friendly. They told me that I would love it and they weren't wrong!

Great Greens!
This course has seen several owners in the past 20 years. This new owner and staff are hitting it out of the park! For $25 M-Th...you will never find a better deal. Greens are legit...fast, grown in, and roll perfect. The superintendent is cutting the fairways in a plaid like look...awesome!
great track if you like a real challenge -- the fairways are extraordinary - soysia ... greens of bent grass were quite good as well. Current management is making some evident condition improvements
always a great track to play
We drive an hour to okay here because we love this course. It has character and is very challenging. The course was wet from the last couple day rains but played well. Greens have healed over nicely from the aeration and since the last time we played here. We took a friend who had never played and she loved the layout and uniqueness.
We will continue to play thru the summer!
Good times at Riverwatch
The staff at Riverwatch and Center Hills Chalets Inc. were very accommodating and helpful for our two day stay. The course was in very good shape and challenging. Great views.
A Pleasant Challenge
Great layout, in great condition - a hidden gem in middle TN! Do whatever you have to off the tee to keep the ball in the fairway, or you will pay dearly. Great staff and facilities
GREAT COURSE and MANAGEMENT
Our Golf Group of 14 men played this course for 3 days.
Weather was showers one day and beautiful the remaining days. Golf Pro- Pete Ferguson and Owner - Dave Phillip could not have been nicer and accommodating.
Course was in GREAT shape. Greens were in good shape.
Cannot say enough good things about the course or people who ran the place.
Adjoining restaurant typical hours was 10 to 4. I asked them to stay open later for our group. Promised we would eat and drink there both days. They stayed there until about 9pm and were very nice. Food was good also.....
Will definitely return. All members of my group had nothing but good things to say.
The best in a 75 mile radius
The staff is outstanding, the course is in phenomenal condition and so challenging
Love this golf course and is a Must to play !
Bear in the Woods
Challenging golf & superb conditions in a hilly, wooded setting. If you like Tom Fazio & Pete Dye layouts, this is the course for you. Every hole demands a precisely placed tee shot to open up the well-trapped green. Errant tee balls are lost in the woods. Very well kept greens help sink recovery putts. There are no opportunities for mental lapses & mishits are punished severely. There are 5 sets of tees. Move up, or expect to empty you bag’s ball pocket. A memorable experience.
Great day on the course
The greens had been dressed, which is fine. The course is challenging yet fun! The staff is making sure everything will be in top shape soon. I love the course!
RIVERWATCH is normally a great challenging course to play but
We are an hour away and have played this course many times. It has always been worth the drive. We like it for the elevation and for tough challenging holes. It was very disappointing to play with the sanded ariated greens and dormant fairways. I wish they would make a note about current ariation of greens. It was not worth playing in this condition for the money or the long drive. Also the group in front was very slow making matters worse. We won’t come back until it repairs itself!
As good as it gets !!!!!
This course is awesome, for March 2nd 2019 and 40 deg this course was in superb condition and so much fun to play.
The best part of playing Riverwatch is the people behind the counter. Hats off to the owner of the course because he or she hires the absolute best people, extremely friendly and makes sure your golfing experience was great. LOVE THIS PLACE AND IT’s people !!!!
Fun and challenging course
Course design is really interesting though challenging. Staff was very helpful and friendly. For February the course was in good shape. I love those Zoysia fairways all year round. A shot in the fairway is always a good lie, even in the winter.. Greens were pretty good for the time of year, but somewhat difficult -- quick and sloped. One really needs to know where to miss it on this course. Miss your shot in the wrong place and you will pay. Will definitely play again and recommend it to others.
