Great first time, plan to come back
Had heard about Riverwatch for a number of years. Due to trees, decided to play up a tee and still really enjoyed the round. Staff all around were great, friendly, and helpful. First group off for the day, so greens were soaked due to irrigation just finishing, but course was in great condition. Fair, fun challenge due to hills and trees, but not too difficult to make you not want to come back. My only complaint on condition is not with the staff and their fine maintenance, its with other players not fixing ball marks on greens. I spent more time fixing other players marks than I did my own. Please take care of the course you are playing and have respect for those following you.
Hidden gem
Great course with a challenging layout. Tight landing areas make you have to play to targets. Only issue with the course was the bunkers were not well maintained. But overall really happy with our experience, and fantastic value for the money. Will be back!
Hey Matt...Thanks for the great review! Since you posted this, we have hired a full time bunker guy. Hopefully you will notice a big difference the next time you play!
Always Great
This course is quite challenging and your approach shot is crucial on pretty much every hole. Greens roll true and the fairways are always in great condition and the ball sits up great on the zoysia grass. Staff is great here as well.
gcrb28...Thank you so much for the excellent feedback! Looking forward to your return!
Hidden Gem!!
Came to TN from FL for my son's weekend birthday bash which came with 36 holes at Riverwatch on Saturday. The short review is "Amazing, fun course, in great shape, with Amazing, welcoming, clubhouse and restaurant staff". The longer review starts now. This is great layout. However, if you've ever played hill top golf you know you've got to hit it in the right spots. There are some blind spots, but if you know where to hit it you get rewarded. The par 3s are all lengthy so no layups there. However, par 5's give you a good look at getting a few strokes back if you have courage. The greens are all plenty large enough and are rolling great!!! However, there are no flat putt so prepare yourself for a couple 3 putts. Can't wait to play here again!!
Jupton413...thank you so much for the review!!! We look forward to your return!
DEAN2129309...Thanks for the 5 star review!!! We hope you will come see us again soon!
A Starter Might Be Beneficial
Really like this course and the folks who manage it. However, today, pace of play was slower than usual due too many trying to start at the same time. Course really bogged down. A starter would help alleviate this.
u847103045...Thank you for your great review and feedback. We have since hired a starter for Friday and Saturday mornings. We are currently looking for a starter for Sunday mornings...send anyone interested to the pro shop! Thanks!
Jewel of a course
Second time here and i love coming here despite the 1 hour drive. Great course, great staff. Course is challenging if you cant hit it straight but very scenic.
Will continue to come to this course.
Hey igmarule!...thanks so much for the great review and recommendation! We look forward to your return!
Great Course - check out the Stay & Play
Beautiful course. Hard, fast greens. Excellent, friendly and accommodating staff. Course is tricky - sloping fairways and run-off areas. You’ll play better the second time once you learn the bailout areas.
Check out the on-course condos available for a surprisingly affordable stay and play package. Great bar and grill next to the clubhouse too.
Thanks for such a great review!
Quickandsmooth...thanks for the great review! We look forward to your return.
Thanks for the recommendation! We appreciate the 4 star review. Hopefully with the new marshals we brought on for weekend play, we will improve that Saturday pace.
JonMasters...Thank you for the 5 star review! We hope you enjoyed your round and will be returning soon!
Tough Course with great conditions
The greens were perfect, and the fairways were nice, but the course was extremely challenging. The front nine was fair but the back nine had some impossible shots. However, I loved the different characteristics of every par 3 on this course.
pjbacker...Thank you for such a great review! It is definitely a challenging course to say the least...but we believe well worth the drive! Hope to see you again soon.
Great Experience on an Amazing Course
Course was built by two different architects: Jerry Lemons designed the current front 9 and Peter Jacobson / Jim Hardy designed the current back 9. The front 9 is a little less playable then the back as it has more forced carries and is tighter than the back. However, the terrain is still as bold and yielded numerous memorable holes.
The on site staff (I met two of the owners) and they could not have been nicer, more helpful, and very passionate about their course (and rightly so). Course is one of my favorites in Tennessee and in the same discussion as Sweeten's Cove and The Sewanee Club.
There are too many unique / strategic holes to name and that is a testament to how good the course is.
Thank you for such a great review! We are constantly working on improving the course...hopefully it just keeps getting more enjoyable! See you again soon!
Great Course
I played Riverwatch yesterday and this course is in great shape. The greens were smooth and relatively fast to be February. This course is a hidden gem in Middle Tennessee.
Thank you so much for the great review! Looking forward to a great 2021 year!
Pete Has The Course Rocking
Absolutely live going to this gem of a course. Yes it is a little bit of a drive from Nashville, but the course is a challenge and Pete and his staff make you feel like a pro whether it is your first or 20th time.
Thank you so much for the great review! Yes...ball marks are a huge battle. Thanks for the plug!
