About

Situated within the Santa Ana Riverbed, River View Golf Course is conveniently located just minutes from Disneyland, Anaheim, and Long Beach. The course's design intertwines with the river, providing challenging hazards on several holes. The narrow layout also features elevated greens that rarely offer a flat lie and are fiercely guarded by sand. Accuracy is a necessity throughout this golf course. Although it offers a fair amount of challenges, there is also ample room off the tees that makes the course more accessible for beginners. River View G.C. is also popular for its practice facilities, which include a driving range with targets and the county's largest putting course. While the other facilities may be modest, River View offers an affordable game that is one of Orange County's best values.

Good experience.

This course requires some accuracy off the tee. Fun though.

Best bang for the buck

Imagine how beautiful the course would be if the city allowed the river to flow?

I'm proud to call Riverview my home course.

Great course and is very underrated.

I wish the city would allow water to flow through the course. It would totally make it a totally different course with new challenges and new scenery. Great local course I'm proud to call my home course.

Horrible experience

The golf carts were horrible. The displays were awesome, but getting them to work properly was incredibly difficult which was aggravating and frustrating to say the least. All of the tea boxes had gravel on them. Not sand gravel. It was difficult at times to figure out where the next hole was, as the signage was not sufficient, especially when you have two holes in the same area and you can’t figure out which one is which. By about the 14th hole all of us were just wishing we were done so we could go home. That’s how bad it was. But I will say the staff was incredible.
