Great Place to Play and Stay.
Course was in great shape. Wasn't overcrowded and has a great selection of food in the clubhouse. You will be impressed by how well everything is kept and the challenging course will keep you engaged.
Great conditions, great deal on golfnow
Conditions on this great course have never been better. Greens played fast and true. Fairways are in great shape with plenty of roll.
Great Day at Riverwatch
Enjoy Riverwatch for the variety and challenges of this course. Great value but on a holiday weekend was a bit slow.
Fantastic Gem in Rural TN
I experienced Riverwatch for the first time on Saturday morning and went in hesitant as it was a bit of a drive for me. Any expectations I had were blown away by this beautiful gem of a golf course. It’s situated up high with breathtaking views of the surrounding area. There’s not a flat hole among the 18 because it is built to work with the rolling hills and not carved out of them. This makes for an extremely fun challenge as you have blind shots, and shots that can run downhill for that extra distance that makes you feel better about your game. The fairways were lovely, well manicured, and firm which produced true iron shots. Just make sure you hit the fairways, otherwise you will lose many balls as anything in the trees is down the mountain. The greens were firm and fast and an exciting challenge. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, I’ve already booked my next tee time as I was so impressed with the course. Don’t let the location deter you from making the trip to this spectacular course, trust me, it’s worth the drive.
So glad you enjoyed the course! We look forward to your return!
Tough tough tough!
Waited long on every shot on the front side. When we got to the turn there were at least 10 carts waiting. Wait between shots got even longer and we quit after hole 11.
Think it could have been a 6 hour round. Very difficult around the greens
Hey Tim...sorry to hear about the slow pace on 11/6. Pace is usually not a problem here so I'm concerned what might have been holding things up that day. In the future, please call the pro shop and we will attempt to identify and fix any pace problems. Hope you can return soon for a better experience.
Excellent
By far, best experience I've had playing golf. Beautiful and challenging course. Amazing staff. Great food. Definitely a 10 out of 10. We had a group of eight so 2 foursomes and played 81 holes in 3 days. We had such an incredible experience we're going to make this a 2-3 times a year trip seeing as we live over an hour away. Can't wait to come back. I highly recommend
We are so happy your experience was so good! We look forward to your return!
Challenging course
Its a course that requires accuracy off the tee and some course knowledge. Not long, but cant be overpowered either. Traps needed some work and sand. Hardly anyone there today so pace was good. Had some very nice holes and reachable in 2 par 5’s. Greens were in good shape. If you find a titleist 2 in the woods, you’re welcome.
River Watch greens are 1st class
Greens were as good as any you’ll find. Fairways were hard and crusty. Beautiful scenery, but tight in places and target landing areas. Tough course. Bring plenty of balls if you can’t keep it in the fairway. Give it an 8 out of 10
Thanks for the great review. Looking forward to your return!
Great course
This is one of the most fun courses I have ever played, it is the best value for the money by far. The staff is great and the food was good also. This is a must play course in Tennessee.
Thanks for such a great review!!! Hope you'll join us again soon!!!
Thanks for the great review!
Bring Extra Balls
Narrow fairways and very thick + steep rough areas. If you hit into the woods, don't spend time looking (too many people do and the pace of play was brutal - I ended up folding after waiting 15 mins on the 13th tee). Hilly, longer holes in the back nine.
Thanks for the feedback and great review. We typically have great pace...I'm sorry we didnt catch whatever was holding the pace up that day. Hopefully the next time you return it will be better!
Thanks for the excellent review! Hope to see you again soon!
September Day
Great day at the course, a good challenge and beautiful scenery. Good day friendly staff a hidden gem in Sparta.
Hey Tim...thanks for the awesome review! Hope to see you again soon!
Challenging course
Loads of fun, but you better stay in the fairway...sandtraps need some work, but other than that, pretty solid overall. Staff was great! Will definitely be back...Terry B.
Thanks for the great review, Terry! We are working daily on the traps...its a never ending process. Hopefully the next time you return, you will notice some improvements. See you soon!
Great Course
This is middle Tennessee's hidden gem. Fairways were great. Rough was actual rough, but not so bad you could not make a play. Greens were fast and rolling perfect. There is not a single hole that you do not have to think about where your ball will land and then where the slope will actually allow the ball to stop. Great course. Very friendly in the clubhouse.
Thanks for the great review! Dave and his staff have been working hard out on the course. Hope to see you again soon!
Great course. Excellent condition
Course is in great shape. I only wish my game matched it ...especially on the more-difficult back 9. I sincerely urge others to repair ball marks on the greens. The course is in excellent condition, and the “track” is as great layout.
Greens are true but very undulating and difficult to manage. So what? Learn how to putt!!
Great course...a true gift to our area.
Thank you so much for the great review! Hope you can make it back again soon!
Nice place
Staff was courteous and friendly. Greens held approach shots. A few spots on the greens. Will definitely play again. Thanks for a great day.
Thanks for the great review! Looking forward to your return!
Glad you enjoyed the course! We are working on improving the flow, even on those busy holiday weekends. Hopefully you will be back soon to see improvements!
