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.

Everyone is in the PGA?
I played with two nice young guys there was a foursome in front of us playing from the Blue tees. Three of the four of them were hacking away and looking for their first balls near the women’s tee box etc. Food for thought move to the WHITE tees like the rest of us. They completely had course backed up
Over booked
Course was over booked and had to wait in line for 30 minutes and carts were out of battery and had to change twice to get going. I couldn't play 18 holes due to poor logistics.
Loved the course and should have been maintained well.
Aeration
The aeration closed the back nine, and it looked like the front had just got finished that morning. Greens were basically unplayable. Very bumpy. Not worth the $36 today, but can see it being a nice course when not having just been worked on.
Nice Place but plan on a long time
If you like to wait 5 minutes or longer for every single shot, then this is the place for you. I don't know why the pace of this course is so slow ... but after a while, it gets to be really aggravating. The guy we played with had to leave after 9 holes because it was getting too late for him. Otherwise, it is a nice course, nice layout, and the greens and fairways were in really good condition. The course is dry on the edges but what course isn't in Indiana right now. Dollar hot dogs were great!
Bad Pace of Play
They seem to consistently overbook tee times so the pace of play is REALLY slow. That's the only knock on this course.
Unfortunate Rushed Game
My foursome showed up to a double booked 3:15 tee time. We were told on hole 2 that we needed to “hurry up” and play quicker. It was unfortunate that my beautiful day of golf turned into us all skipping a hole completely (suggested by the employee who greeted us on hole 2) in order to compensate for the course's over scheduled day. There was an outing at the same time that we were not a part of. I had been to this course 3x in the past month with no problems but this particular round was one of the worst. A true waste of my money for the group/company.
Disappointed
Usually enjoy playing RG. Group of SIX! in front of us our two would not let us play thru made for a miserable experience. Course was also in poor condition.
River Glen used to be a nice course but poor management and horrendous grounds keeping has turned it into a goat ranch. Don't waist your time and money!
Great course but slow pace
I don’t know how many times I have driven past this course over the years always wanting to play. Even after reading other reviews about slow play I figured it was time to see what this course has to offer. Got an early tee time hoping to get ahead of the rush. Much to my surprise on the morning of my tee time it, forecast stated spotty showers. I thought, man I was in luck, I don’t mind golfing in the occasional sprinkle and most people would just rather stay dry. It wasn’t even the third hole where we started coming up in slow groups and things started piling up from there. We even saw a ranger driving around, but not quite sure what his function was since he never asked anything and just drove past. I could only imagine how the day would’ve gone in a sunny day. Would like to play the course again and love the layout but staff needs to get pace of play under control I don’t see me going back anytime soon.
