About
Laid out on the east banks of the White River in the town of Fishers, this par-71 Gary Kern design offers a pleasant parkland round of golf. As a country club that is open for public play, River Glen serves up a friendly atmosphere and superb course conditions. Recent renovations have elevated the course in the eyes of locals and visitors alike, and it is regarded as one of Hamilton County’s best places for a round.

Solid course; needs better maintenance
Solid layout, but course needs some better maintenance. Fairways in particular were in fairly poor condition with many bare spots.
Good public course
$44 walking 18 holes on a Sunday afternoon. Full round right at 4 hrs. Good conditions and nice pace of play. Surprisingly excellent weekend round.
Played in August, course in rough shape
This course can be beautiful, but my most recent experience was not great. Greens were torn up and the tee boxes looked like the surface of the moon. The lay out is great and the course challenges you in fun ways, but the maintenance is lacking. Not worth the $60/round.
PACE OF PLAY A PROBLEM
LET ME START BY ADMITTING I LOVE RIVER GLEN. THEY NEED TO ENFORCE PACE OF PLAY, ESP ON WEEKENDS. ITS A PROBLEM - ALMOST 6HR ROUND. I WILL FIND ALTERNATIVE FOR WEEKEND ROUNDS.
A little on the pricey side
Played there on a “Hot Deal” price from golf now. The normal price for a weekday round is, I think, around $70. My question is, for that kind of money couldn’t you please, please, buy and use a green roller? Puts don’t follow the contours of the green very well when they’re bouncing all over the place.
Nice course
Have played this course several times in the past. Staff was friendly and helpful. Course was in good overall shape and grounds crews were out filling divots on the tee grounds. Greens rolled nicely. Fairways were in good shape. I really liked the type of sand that were in the bunkers. It was not your typical gravel pit sand. Nice and consistent sand. Six two dollars for 18 is probably a touch high for this course.
Will definitely return to play this course again.
Slowwwwww
Play twice this year and that’s gonna be it. Both rounds were over five hours because they stagger tee times eight minutes apart instead of 10 to 15. It was the most brutal round ever in the heat twice this year because they stack everybody to try to squeeze more money.
Do not play here if you wanna play under five hours
Pace of Play Issue
If you are to have to pay $70 for a golf round, you shouldn’t have to spend 4 hours playing only 12 holes. Not happy with the fact there wasn’t a course ranger having people speed up or giving warnings. That should be a requirement amongst all golf courses. I was forced to leave early since the round was taking too long. Staff and course was great.
Great track
Great course. Staff awesome. Course is in great shape. Don’t sleep on this course
Great course but slowwwww play
Always loved this course and the layout. Plus, it’s a very pretty course! Only downside is pace of play and no Ranger to keep things moving. Maybe a cost issue? No starter either. Pace of play was awful. Five hour round on a Monday
Very poor pace of play
Why spread t times at 8 min when most players out here play 4:30-5 hr rounds. So slow. Greens had lots divots and sand traps very inconsistent . Love layout but could have so much improvements.
Bring your patiy
Incredibly slow round. Five and a half hour round. Bad golfers playing way too long tees for them. No course should allow this pace. Never going back.
