The course has just been acquired, and the conditions were ignored by the previous owners. I’ve always enjoyed the course, and truly expect vast improvements during this year. In addition to the course they need to expand parking area. I’ll be back!

Rude staff, extremely rude.

What a complete jerk , whoever runs the pro shop on Saturday mornings at this course. I just bought a house in the neighborhood. Saw that the course was open this weekend , figured I’d give it a shot. Booked a time. Show up, and greeted by an angry, rude, guy who says “I got nothin for ya bud” “too cold” it’s literally 50 degrees out.. “why’d you book an early time?” Why the f%% do you offer an early time? What a terrible first and definitely last impression of a course I heard bad things about but wanted to give a shot. Never again. Dude should be fired at the least.

Not ready for golf!

Great layout but conditions make playing this course a waste - many other good choices in the area. Driving range rate 1 of 5, conditions of the fairways and greens 1 of 10.

Vacation

I met two guys I had never seed before and they were members of the course. They instructed me were I needed to hit the ball . The course was super.

Rivers Edge

I could see how this was once a great track. Still quite challenging due to the terrain. Unfortunately it appears there is a fight between the developer and HOA as he wants to take out part of the course and add more homes. The course upkeep is suffering. Hope it works out.

terrible course

The course owner / developer is in a legal battle with homeowners and has let the course go. I quit after 9 holes. Course is in terrible condition, the grass in the fairways is long, most sand traps have more grass and weeds than sand, a few of what used to be ponds are now just big dry holes. save your money and play elsewhere.

Oddball layout in fair condition

Course is one of those weird layouts where they shoehorn a course in a canyon and try to make it work. Some holes are in decent shape but many are pretty beat up. Same for greens. Lots are pockmarked with some sort of blight. Very inconsistent speed of greens across the course. Signage is terrible so for first time players spent a lot of time trying to find the way to go. Price is high (cart is mandatory due to hills) so green fees + 30$ cart rental makes the value pretty low.

Very Sad to see the end of this course

Course was in excellent condition. We play it multiple times each year. Sadly it has been sold and will become houses. It is a fun and unique course.

Say it ain't so!

Rivers Edge will be the first course to sell off land (for housing of course). Last time a course closed in central OR was Orion Greens in the 90's...as if anyone in Bend even remembers that course.

I always have liked the challenge and variety of layout. Course in decent shape, considering the hot/dry summer.

Not the best bang for your buck in Bend, but worth playing one last time! Back 9 scheduled to close for housing by next year.

Course Being closed

It was fun layout wise, it’s a shame that its being sold. The course has been over run by gophers so you can have some trouble if you hit it in a gopher hole in the middle of the fairway. Greens were OK, some were inconsistent. I would have been fine paying 40$ for this course, but 70+ is not worth it.

Not worth $69 greens fee

The course is in bad condition and not worth the high cost of the greens fee. Our cart’s battery died 8 holes into our round. The course is apparently being sold to be developed into homes so it seems the owners don’t care to keep the course playable. Stay away from it.

River Edge

I have played this course at least a dozen times and still have not figured it out. Has a couple of really tough holes if your not put the ball in the fairway. #1 par 4 is a very interesting starting hole that most likely drops almost 200 feet around a corner. Also #16 par 3 does about the same thing but only 100 feet down. You don't really want to walk this course its a lot of up/down hills. Sometimes a long way from greens to the next tee. Fun place to play over all. Lots of golf courses in Bend to choose from just how much do you want to pay or torcher yourself. I play 130+ rounds a year and at the moment 9.4 handicap.

Greens are awful

Apparently this course is going to be torn out for housing. The practice green is in great shape but on course were not maintained. The golf carts are very old and our parking break wouldn’t hold. Pace of play was great as there wasn’t anyone behind or ahead of us. Maybe the locals know it’s not in great shape. Course layout is interesting.
