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.

Great Track - Very Slow Play Kills the Experience!
Really like this golf course. I’ve played it a handful of times and every time the play is unbearably slow!! I was part of a threesome and it took us 5 hours to play. Behind.a 4some who wouldn’t let us through and we waited on just about every shot. Suggestion: put a ranger on the course and space the tee times a little more. Definitely will choose other courses moving forward.
Had open tee times for Father’s Day
This was my first time playing this course and I found it to be a real mixed bag of conditions and challenges. The overall condition of the course is pretty natural but maintained. The layout is fun with only a handful of “gimmicky” holes or simply ones that make you say “what were they thinking here”?? It was Sunday of Father’s Day so I was expecting a 5hr. round and was not disappointed. and not sure what a normal day would play like. Overall I would play this course again.
I gave it one more try
So…I’ve now lived in Fishers for more than 20 years. I can’t count how many times I’ve played at River Glen…but this will be my last. First…I check in the young guy behind the counter greets the gentlemen in front of me with a Good Morning…he greets me with a What’s Up. Next …the ranger harasses us on 3 different occasions and tell us we have to pick it up….at this point we’re leaving the tee…the group behind us is still in their fairway. The second time …he warns the 2 some we’re playing with ..we’re waking onto the green..the group behind us is on the tee….385yrds away (side note: we had to wait on the tee of the previous mentioned hole because the group in front of us had to take a pee break in the bushes). He then follows us around for a free additional holes not saying anything just watching…at this time…we have a whole hole lead on the group behind us. Now…I hate to take it to a “race thing” but me and my playing companion are black…and just about every time I’ve played here..I’ve had an issue (once heard someone refer to me as “colored” also…had a ranger about 10 years ago watch me hit a drink and said that “I hit that ball like Tiger Woods” So…with all that being said …even though I live 7 mins from the course ….I’LL NEVER PLAY RIVER GLEN AGAIN!!!!
6/12/23 buddy day
Staff very polite, had our reservations
Tees good
Fairways very good
Greens fair and all same speed,quick
Bunkers good
Carts have no windshields a negative
Great track
Awesome track, the only negative would be that some of the greens were a little beat up, but I think that is more on the players not fixing their ball marks.
Slow Day
Everything was great except for the pace. Took 4+ hours to play.
Pace keeps getting slower and slower.
Been here 4 or 5 times and each time it has gotten significantly slower. Wish we were sent off the back since it was clear and the front it took 2 hours 40 mins to play on a Monday evening. Love the course and people though.
A river runs through it
This course is so so much fun but you gotta put the ball in good spots ! Can’t hit driver off every tee , iron play must be good ! The greens were slick but a bit beat up from others not repairing their ball marks ! It is definitely a must play ! I am going to try to go weekly for my mid week practice round !!
Great day
River Glen is a jewel of a course and should be considered the top course in the greater Carmel, Indiana area. Always a pleasure to play and it offers a good challenge every round.
Wind shield
Their cart does not provide a windshield. It was brutal during fall and early spring weather.
