Ridiculously slow

No one managing rate of play. Super slow. Some were skipping around to play whatever holes were available.

Value

I liked course layout some challenging holes not extremely difficult but hard enough to make you better. Only real complaint for me is, spotty grass & dirt fairways, ground not very forgiving. For the $25 dollars I paid for 18 holes and decent cart, I won't make a federal case out of it... Overall it is a good training course...

Nice Course

It is a good course for the price. The greens were in great condition! The fairways were a little patchy and hard in spots. Overall, I enjoy playing the course and will play again!

Pace of play

They book tee times every 5 minutes but get mad when you can’t keep pace of play, The course isn’t worth $42. Balls flying in every direction not a single “fore” called, got hit into 5 times. Won’t be playing there again

Nice flat course for our older bodies!

The pace of play was slow, we had to skip ahead of four ladies, who were really slow! Once we skipped a whole, the pace was fine!

Get what you pay for

Very short, very easy course. Lot of fun if you're looking to go low. Conditions aren't the best, but I see it as a fun course. It's one of the cheapest courses around, you get what you pay for. Greens aren't bad at all, tee boxes are the main issue. But other than that it's good!

The course had nice greens, outside of the greens you’re either playing off of dirt in the tees and fairway or mud.

We had a 10am tee time and there were 6 groups waiting on the first tee and 3 behind us. The marshal would not shotgun start us. Didn’t tee off until 11 and took 5 hours for 18 holes. Too much money for the conditions and the course does not have any reason to have a marshal.

Showed up 20 minutes early and paid, as we’re about to tee off the starter adds 2 guys to our group cuz the course was already backed up (we booked 2 slots and even checked again before arriving and the other 2 slots were still available for our tee time). We waited at least 5 minutes on every tee box, I understand that it’s a weekend and more people are out but a 5 hour round gets miserable when you’re waiting to hit every shot. The tee boxes were in terrible shape, greens had geese poop and crud all over. It’s cheap so I keep coming back but I’m not sure it would even be worth $10 to play here anymore. There are many other courses close by that are in better shape, have friendlier staff, and cost about the same.

Flat Course

Riverside is a flat course with several water hazards that helps with dialing in club accuracy and distances. We played in Feb., so the course was still in hibernation which meant the ball rolled a lot further than usual. Greens were more difficult than expected, but rolled well.

Overall, a nice easy course. Only issue was very slow play!

You can putt from the fairways!!

Early morning tee times here are usually great and quick. Went a few times last year and had a good round each time. Paid around $20 for those rounds. This time around I was charged $40 when I got to the course due to an additional $10 cart fee they charged last second. I go to get my cart and I was told I was going to ride with someone else. I told the starter I would wait or just ride with them in my own cart since I just paid a cart fee last minute too. He didn’t like that response and stuck me with a guy who probably wanted his own cart too. The starter said he’d buy us all a round of beers at the turn and mysteriously left work early when we made the turn (3 hours later) Luckily the 3 guys I got paired with were cool and we had a good time. But good lord it was like hitting off of concrete IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FAIRWAY. I was putting from 100 yards in with no issues. Shouldn’t be able to roll that far lol. All In all…worth $20 on a weekday. Don’t even try to go on a weekend and it’s not worth $40 anytime or any day.

First Time Playing

First time

Friendly staff. Some holes were confusing. Many fairways were dry and a lot of bald spots. Like the setup of the holes. We had a good time. Seemed like a pretty busy day. Had to wait or let others play through because we felt rushed. Overall I would try the course again and hope for better conditions.
