A little slow, it is a muni after all. The greens are in good shape. And there's a little elevation on the back nine.
really nice view I like the food as well. I enjoyed it very much. riverside is such a good area. Neighbourhood is so good.
For the price this course is good. Been a while since I ve been here, but enjoy it every time I go. If you havent been, give it a try
I have played Riverside many times and everytime the course offered a different challenge. Better to book a Tee time in advance as the course can be really busy. They allow 5some, which in my opinion really slows the game. Many players do not use the play as you go rule , but rather wait for each other turn, and I did not see the marshall telling them to sped up. They should have a refreshment cart on the course, especially in the summer when its 100F+! Bunkers are hard!
This course has a great layout and I have been playing here for over 40 years. The conditions over those years have varied from horrible to pretty good. The course gets a lot of play and Fresno can have some tough weather for golf courses...but the current management is doing a pretty good job and conditions are close to as good as they have ever been.
The first time I played Riverside about 4 years ago I thought it was a cow pasture and swore never to return. Some friends convinced me to try it again after they did some renovations to the course. I have played it 6-8 times since the renovations a few years ago. The course was definitely better, but not great. It is a typical city course, in that it is maintained OK, but also gets a lot of play. It is not picturesque, but reasonably priced. Not too much water on the course.
Nice place to golf, not a country club, a little rough in places but on the river with some nice holes.
My very first time golfing. I went with my Uncle & we had a good time. I still have a lot to learn. Lol
Riverside has been in poor shaope for a number of years, that is, until now. Last year the course was half closed for most of the summer, I just played it after the renovation and revamp and must say I am very impressed.They have a lake in between holes 4/5/17, this is apparently the reservior for teh all new irrigation system. The course is now GREEN! there is grass where I have never seen it before.The fairways and rough are lush and green, this has always had a gereat layout but poor condition, now both are tip top. If you haven't played here in a few years, I would certainly reconsider it.
I attended a charity tournament and will return to play the course again. Nice improvements over where it was three years ago. Updated course and amenities.
