Par 3 at Riverside Golf Club

The thing that makes this a bad course are the fairways. Hit a drive down the middle of the fairway? Great you're going to be hitting your next shot off dirt. There were some parts where the rough was better than the fairway.

Went on a sunday so the pace of play was expected to be slow. During the weekdays it could be better but not sure.

Staff was friendly and awesome to talk with. Food at the turn was quick and lady running the counter made sure we knew about the deals.

If the fairways were better I would return here because the layout is great. However, the conditions were just harsh

Being one of the cheapest 18 Hole options in the St Louis Metro area in a fairly centralized location, you're bound to get people who lack common golfing courtesy. Tack on top of that the course booking tee times too closely together and a complete lack of on-course oversight (in terms of a roaming marshal) and you have a breeding ground for exceptionally slow Pace of Play. Was stuck behind a Foursome for my entire round of 9 holes where all 4 players had to gather around and watch each other take practice swings, slowly set up their shot, then hit their ball (poorly, might I add). Fairly certain they had never heard the term "Ready Golf" before. The course NEEDS a marshal keeping PoP.

My biggest issue with Riverside, which is one Ive always had and often forget when im booking tee times, is how ungodly early they require carts to be in. Playing 9, starting at 4:45, they require the carts back in by 6:30 and I just barely managed to make that (see above PoP issues). For record, the sun did not set until well after 7:30 and could have easily played the other 9 before sunset by passing the Foursome at the turn. Pretty much every other course Ive played wants the carts in by sunset and it's criminal how early Riverside requires them in. It's pure laziness by whatever cart staff they have, just wanting to clean the carts and go home earlier. It's a lack of dedication to the course and the customer.

It's a shame, because the course is looking much better as the weather has warmed up and is fairly well taken care of by the groundskeeper, considering how many unrepaired divots I find myself fixing throughout the round are left on the fairways and greens (see lack of golf courtesy). I'd much rather spend a few more dollars to play another course with the current issues there. I hope that they get more/better staff and do better for the course and the players, but will not be returning in the near future until these simple-to-fix issues are addressed.

It was raining on us all day so the course was pretty much open and not pushed for pace at all. The staff was excellent and it was reasonably priced. Not a hard course which I liked because I haven't been playing long. I will definitely return to this course.

Pace of play is terrible here but I really enjoy this course.

Great place to play. We have been playing there a few times a month

They forgot to remove times from their site so the 9 holes I wanted to play on the 18 hole course was denied. I had to play their par 3 course for $3 less, finished in 45 minutes. I was not a happy camper.

Overall I do like the course, especially for a muni course. Pretty well kept, but please ensure the carts are in good working order. Ours backfired a lot and a few times I thought it had died completely.

Really good course especially for the price, greens were in good shape for the amount of people that play there, but tee box grounds are very hard, it’s very hard at times to put a tee in the ground.
