Laid out on the east banks of the White River in the town of Fishers, this par-71 Gary Kern design offers a pleasant parkland round of golf. As a country club that is open for public play, River Glen serves up a friendly atmosphere and superb course conditions. Recent renovations have elevated the course in the eyes of locals and visitors alike, and it is regarded as one of Hamilton County’s best places for a round.

River Glen used to be a nice course but poor management and horrendous grounds keeping has turned it into a goat ranch. Don't waist your time and money!

Great Course

Love River Glen. It is a challenging course and is in excellent condition. The practice facilities are top notch and the various Tee boxes offer all levels of golfers a challenge. Will come here again and again!

Great course but slow pace

I don’t know how many times I have driven past this course over the years always wanting to play. Even after reading other reviews about slow play I figured it was time to see what this course has to offer. Got an early tee time hoping to get ahead of the rush. Much to my surprise on the morning of my tee time it, forecast stated spotty showers. I thought, man I was in luck, I don’t mind golfing in the occasional sprinkle and most people would just rather stay dry. It wasn’t even the third hole where we started coming up in slow groups and things started piling up from there. We even saw a ranger driving around, but not quite sure what his function was since he never asked anything and just drove past. I could only imagine how the day would’ve gone in a sunny day. Would like to play the course again and love the layout but staff needs to get pace of play under control I don’t see me going back anytime soon.

Challenging yet playable

It’s been a couple years since I’ve played River Glen. The upgrades to the course are excellent! I like that they’ve flipped the front and back 9, the course is in great shape.

Worth it!

Golf shop could be more interactive to increase purchases. Bar staff was very friendly. Course okay wasn’t terrible. Slow on the back 9 but not terrible. Course looked fantastic!

Poor management and courtesy

I booked online using GolfNow but when I showed up to check in I was told that they had construction on the front nine and we would need to skip a hole or two. The guy behind me was offered the price of green fee and cart for 9 instead of 18. I asked the gentlemen behind the counter what that would be and he said $30. I told him that I paid $37.50 per player and he said that there was nothing he could do because it was a hot deal with Golf Now. When I arrived at the 1st tee I was told that another group had a 10 o’clock tee time (same as me) and they were waiting to tee off. There was no starter and no one to dispute the the argument. We had long waits due to work on course cart paths and had to skip a hole as well as tee off from a distance less than a normal par 3. on another. Very disappointed in the management and scheduling of course updates. Probably would have asked for my money back ( paid $112 for 3 some) and played at a different course, but one guy traveled 90 minutes and the other 45 minutes. Course was pretty good but employees couldn’t have care less about their customers and why construction in the middle of peak times. Frustrated...
