Enjoyable course at a great value!

First time here. Course layout is pretty cool, with some visually tough but exciting shots. Front nine has some really unique beauty to it. Enjoyed my round here with some friendly locals and staff was great. Highly recommend!

Great Layout

Riverwalk is conveniently located near downtown San Diego. The course is low on frills but has a solid layout with great undulating greens and a creek that winds through course. Course was very wet and cart path only, not sure it was necessary since most golfers ignored.

Fantastic Course

I loved the course. It was my 1st time playing here. There are not too many trees so the greens are wider and it's easier to spot your ball after swings. Overall, great location and the course is well taken care of.

First time at Riverwalk

Needed help with GPS settings as Friars nine is no longer in play (but still offered on GPS defaults).
Also had to look up rating/slope on website after the round — that information should be on every scorecard. Shouldn’t have to search for it.

Overpriced

Can’t believe how much they charge now, almost a 40% increase in greens fees over the last year. The quality and condition of the course can’t justify this price. Maybe the worst bang for your buck in San Diego.
