Challenging yet playable

It’s been a couple years since I’ve played River Glen. The upgrades to the course are excellent! I like that they’ve flipped the front and back 9, the course is in great shape.

Worth it!

Golf shop could be more interactive to increase purchases. Bar staff was very friendly. Course okay wasn’t terrible. Slow on the back 9 but not terrible. Course looked fantastic!

Unbelievably Slow

This is a beautiful course. Great amenities and great practice areas. The worst thing about this course is the sloooow play. The course stacks groups on top of each other but doesn't really inforce quick play. We watched groups in front of us literally play their same shots over and over. We called a ranger at one point but nothing changed in the pace of play.

Poor management and courtesy

I booked online using GolfNow but when I showed up to check in I was told that they had construction on the front nine and we would need to skip a hole or two. The guy behind me was offered the price of green fee and cart for 9 instead of 18. I asked the gentlemen behind the counter what that would be and he said $30. I told him that I paid $37.50 per player and he said that there was nothing he could do because it was a hot deal with Golf Now. When I arrived at the 1st tee I was told that another group had a 10 o’clock tee time (same as me) and they were waiting to tee off. There was no starter and no one to dispute the the argument. We had long waits due to work on course cart paths and had to skip a hole as well as tee off from a distance less than a normal par 3. on another. Very disappointed in the management and scheduling of course updates. Probably would have asked for my money back ( paid $112 for 3 some) and played at a different course, but one guy traveled 90 minutes and the other 45 minutes. Course was pretty good but employees couldn’t have care less about their customers and why construction in the middle of peak times. Frustrated...

Honestly a solid course

Got to play with a buddy out here a couple days ago and I can honestly say the course is in the best shape it’s been in a while. Greens are rolling pure even with all of the play the course has been getting over the past couple months.

Beautiful & challenging course

I have played River Glen for years and have always enjoyed it. They’ve invested significant resources the last few years to increase the complexity of the layout and improve the drainage around areas that previously held water. If it’s been a few years since you’ve played here, it’s time to come back. Golf is in high demand right now as it’s one of the few recreation activities that has remained open with social distancing and stay at home orders that have been in place. So, courses are seeing more rounds than previous years. Despite all this, RG is incredibly well-maintained and the pace is on par to what you’ll find at any other comparable course in the area right now.
