Great course but slow play

Really enjoyed the course, food and staff. Only drawl back was the pace of play. Round took over five hours to complete and I’m not sure we saw a ranger on the course.

I’m Not The “Write a Review Guy”

Where to start… amenities… ball washers, trash cans, yardage books on every cart, bathrooms on each 9, yardage markers… you feel good paying money to play here. Staff…employees are awesome from the pro shop to the cart barn to the course keepers, superintendent, and his pup….to the bartenders and starters.

River Glenn is a top 5 golf course and experience on a golf course in this city. Secluded, however a couple holes have houses to keep your game honest, I like it. It plays along the White River so when your game sucks at least that’s awesome.

It’s simple enough to see how many different ways you can play it but equally difficult to ruin ever plan you had. Precision beats power here and I love that.

Play here all the time if you can, help take care of it, and test your game.

Great course, but a few needed improvements

I love River Glen. I think the course is my favorite in the greater Carmel/Fishers/Zionsville/Westfield area. However, the sand traps need some work. A few are fairly fluffy, but the rest are like hitting off concrete. The greens are fast, challenging and fair, but they are getting a bit worn and a lot of areas are showing what appears to be “fungus” damage. Plus, far too many players just don’t fix ball marks. These are minor things overall and should not dissuade anyone from playing this really fun, beautiful course!

My only critique is the greens need some work. They were playable but in rougher shape than what you would expect from this course. Otherwise, I had a great experience here and recommend. Price is more than fair.
