River View Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

I played a round for the first time last week, and the greens and fairways were generally in good condition. The course layout was fun, and I enjoyed the round leisurely. It's close to home, so I plan to come often.
Fun course
Lots of elevation differences between these holes and it was a lot of fun. Greens and fairways were in good shape. Decently priced food and tee times, friendly staff.
Beautiful greens
First time playing this course and it was beautiful greens and fairways. Love that you have different types of ⛳ especially going up the hill green. Conditions were great.
Hidden gem in Orange County
This course is laid out along the dry riverbed that gets quite wet during the winter months. Many challenging holes that require crossing canyons and riverbeds. Fun course to play.
Mostly uphill greens and hitting over features
Course conditions are a little biased because they were prepping for a tournament. I was one of the last groups to tee off before the tournament started so there were workers wetting the greens and cutting grass before it started, but they did not hinder the play at all.
The course in general is pretty challenging if you aren't able to consistently hit the ball clean. Lots of features to play over/around making it challenging for beginners. Great experience overall
Good Times
Staff was great, John is the coolest, great times
Challenging course for beginner
My first time playing was very fun, but there's lots of opportunities to explore some hazards and trees off the tee box. It's a unique layout, with fairways often hugging the river canal so there can be a lateral pitch to add some difficulty, along with the elevated greens. Overall the quality of the fairways and greens were nice. The pace of play was a little slow but there was a marshal driving around to keep an eye on it. I would definitely come back again.
Don’t come to Riverview
I like this golf course. I can book a tee time almost any day of the week. The course is laid out following a contour of sandy river bed. Some players don’t like the layout, but I find it challenging and fun. So let’s keep it a secret. Don’t tell anybody 🤫
