River Bend Golf Course

The time limit was based on the fact that the day I attended was
Labor Day. We knew going in, it was going to be crowded. 9 holes took over 3 hours. Half the course seemed to walk and the other rode, but it didn't make a difference; it was crowded regardless. Greens were a little beat up due to heavy traffic and rain the day before, but was in good playable shape overall.

My girlfriend and I have gone here twice. The first time we waited 30 minutes after our tee time to tee off. It took us 3 and half hours to play the nine. The second time we arrived 5 minutes before our tee time because of our experience the last visit and waited in line for 15 minutes and missed our tee time. We were told that we wouldn't get a refund because we were late. After arguing for ten minutes we managed to get rain checks which we sold in the parking lot to another couple. Don't waste your time here.

When you only have time for 9 holes, this is a great option. It feels like the front or back 9 of a premier quality golf course. Greens are unusually fast for a public course and run true. The layout is challenging for better players, yet not too penal for average players.

But the real draw is the federally protected wetland. Something awe inspiring about letting nature do its own thing, unaided by man. It is a beautiful golf course. My only complaint is ending the round on a par 3.

Played this course with some out of town family members early one Saturday morning , We had a ball. The Course was very challenging and in excellent condition. I would certainly recommend it and myself look forward to playing it again.

It was a great golf course well maintained, but most of the holes were pretty challenging. Lost a lot of balls. I don't recommend to the beginners. The green and fairways were well maintained but the water hazards were dirty and smelled bad.

on a hot, humid day, it took 3 hours and 20 minutes to play 9 holes. No rangers or other course management to move play along.

Great day for a little 9 hole action @ River Bend. Too many novices out there though, so it was very, very slow. This is not a novice course. Novices need to play Zigfield Troy, Mid Iron, Green Meadows, and Boughton Ridge in the local area. Wetland restoration on holes 7 & 8 looks to have gone well. Couldn't pass on the Hot Deal for this course.

Many shots just off the fairway were lost in deep rough or streams. Too many holes closely aligned to another hole which resulted in risk of getting hit. Beautiful scenery, best played when not busy.

A big 9 hole course 2 par 5's, 2 3's and the rest par 4's I will be back

Great course for walkers and beginners, but fun and challenging for the experienced golfer.

Good sand, a tad short but play from the tips makes up. Nice greens and fairways. A solid value for 9 holes if that is your option

For a nine hole course, excellent experience & well worth the ride.

If you can shoot in the 40s here without losing a ball, you can do it anywhere. A challenging and well-maintained 9-hole course. One of my favorites in the western suburbs.

Course is well maintained. It has a lot of character and you'll enjoy the different looks each hole gives you. The greens are kept up nicely and the scenery makes for a wonderful experience. You can do 9 holes in less than 2 hours easy

Near from home and good to play and very challengeable. I would like to play again.

Bring your A game - or a lot of balls. Fun 9 hole course that will challenge you.

This is a beautiful course, one of the best I've played in the area. The greens are really nice, there are plenty of hazards to make it challenging, and the rough was thick which made it difficult as well.
