River Vale Country Club

It's been years since I played here and was reluctant to go back. Pleasantly surprised to see the town or county took it over and made it a really good facility all the way around. Layout is still the same except front 9 is now the back 9. Good change as it speeds up play. What's more is the 19th hole is u tremendous upgrade and a great place to square up your bets.........

This course is requiring all of player's skill and strategy to the various level of difficulty.
The course condition is taken care of constantly.
After golf, the good meal and drink can be enjoyed.

Not the sweetest, really bad greens, extremely hairy and very slow. Apparently no one fixes their ball marks. Good course for high handicappers. The staff in the Pro Shop were so snobbish, which is strange considering its a legit Muni course in descent condition.

Great course, great facalities, only issue I had was the pace of play. It was very slow

350pm tee time was very slow. Waiting on every hole.

Course is in great shape. Renovations are noticeable. But too many players on the course & never saw a ranger once.

Overall a beautiful course with very challenging holes.

This course are well managed but interrupted game by the other player's ball because fairways are closed each other.

NOt a very long course but it has some challenging holes. A lot of blind shots to greens. Greens ran very true and most in very good shape. Staff extremely friendly. I enjoyed my round and will be back.

I grabbed a discounted online same day fee for a noon time and had 2 hours to spare.. On arrival I was greeted by a well organized starter & my clubs were taken and put on a clean cart with cold bottled water. We teed off on time and played 18 in just under 4 hours. They don't crowd the course and it's kept in very good condition, not a muni by any means. There were a few marks on the greens and tee boxes, but nothing that shouldn't be expected at a well played public course. When the round was done, there was someone to clean clubs and there's a very nice bar/ cafe in the clubhouse. I look forward to playing here again.

Great layout. Attentive staff. Lots of improvements. Love playing this course.

Very nice course during season. Stay away in offseason, they do a lot of work on the course which isn't a bad thing. Got a hot deal and tried it for 2nd time...100x better during the season...

Played the blues, not much different in yardage on any holes from the whites.

Staff were great, and the greens were in good shape, but that's about it. The fair ways were in terrible shape. It took us 5 and a half hours to complete 18 holes. People were taking 2 off the tee with us waiting behind them and didn't ask to play through. I wouldn't suggest playing in the morning for 90 dollars. If anything play at twighlight for 60. But I wouldn't suggest that either

Let me start off by saying the first time out (week prior) the pace was unbearable with no ranger support to push things along. However the 2nd time out it was exceptional. it was just me and a buddy. Course conditions were completely different than a week prior as greens were slow and even unfinished. This time the only drawback was the hard sand which is the cause of rain showers earlier that morning.

The staff is just great. Friendly and professional.

Been playing Rivervale for years. As challenging as ever, but management is making changes to improve the course...taking down trees, new bunkers etc. Pretty challenging course with some excellent holes (par 5's are fun). Great deal midweek on GolfNow. You will need to know how to hit a draw off the tee on some of the par 4's.

Got to play only the back nine twice due to construction. Decent value for the money. Course is in good condition although the greens could be in better shape and the holes were located on very steep slopes in some holes.

Course in the winter season, so it was good condition

I like this course, first time play. but some local players were playing very slow. need some patient. I tea off at 11:45am, after 4 hours still was still at 15th hole. so I skipped 16th and passed front group, played 17th, and 18th.

Fairways and greens were clean and leaf free. Greens were a bit bumpy but expected for this time of year. Bunkers were a bit muddy but crews are out working on new traps throughout course. The layout is awesome and staff was great, as usual. We will be back in the spring to play again.

Played in Dec. 55 degrees and the course was in good shape considering time of year. Definitely will play again

My friend lived closed by always wants to play here. I am extremely disappointment to see the fairway and green condition. Although a good price from golfnow, it is not worth the money. In particular, several roads were closed getting into the club house parking. It took me 30 minute to drive around 2 miles before getting in.

Walked off the course on a Tuesday because I was 4 hrs and 15 minutes in on the 15th tee. Waited on almost every shot. Course conditions were generally good, though the greens were very slow.
