About
The Riverbend Golf Complex sits along the Green River in Kent Valley, Wash. Owned and operated by the City of Kent, the complex offers a championship, 18-hole course and a mini-golf course. The 18-hole course is one of the busiest in the state with more than 65,000 rounds played on it annually. The golf course sprawls across a relatively flat landscape, making it easily walkable. Though it may not be hilly, that doesn't mean it's trouble free. There are more than 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout and three lakes come into play as well. The layout is player friendly, with enough variety to appeal to players of all skill levels.

The golf outing. Photo submitted by mastergolfer12 on 09/26/2012
Winter golf is not the best
A day of golf is always better than a day at work. Good, challenging course, normally in great condition. Many greens are in mediocre to poor shape this time of year. The back-nine is lower so much wetter than the front nine. Most groups were moving briskly, but a couple were impeding progress. Enjoyable, but not great.
Great Course
Great course with a nice layout. Restaurants and bar is closed so no amenities other than snacks in the pro shop. Pro shop does have a good selection.
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Riverbend Golf Complex.
Lots of ball marks not fixed on greens. Lots of divots not replace on Fairways. Would be nice if you found an operator for the restaurant.

Great condition but slow pace of play
Hit a small bucket at the range before my round at 12:30. Course was backed up from the first tee and took 2&1/2 hours to finish the front nine. We had to skip two holes on the back because they were closing the gate across the river.
Overall good experience but the slow pace and early close of the gate left me feeling like I didn’t get full value for my green fee.
The restaurant was closed :-/
