Par 3 at Riverside Golf Club

All was good. I would recommend more work on the tee boxes. Greens were in decent shape and slow. Had a good round.

Save yourself the money, headache, frustration, and possible heat stroke. These mor0ns decided to go part path only in August in Texas. This slowed the pace of play down for a twosome to almost 6 hours. There’s almost no shade anywhere and the river has taken out portions of the course. When I told the guy in the clubhouse that they should rethink the cart path only rule (maybe 90 degrees?) This slick pr1ck says, “well there’s actually a really good reason for that, we have to take care of the course.” First, that lets me know where taking care of the players stands and… Second, have you seen the course? Take care of what? Judging by the clubhouse, I assume they can’t afford to water. Horrible course.

This place has an overall friendly staff, but the guy running around with the clipboard and tee sheet could settle down a bit. The attitude about teeing off on 10 immediately is unnecessary considering we were stopping at the turn to use the restroom and SPEND MONEY in your snack bar. We didn’t have to do that. If you’re so “backed up” then maybe try scheduling things a little better and not cram so many tee times in at once. Don’t try to run an overall poor quality course like it’s a posh private club.

The cashier at check in was very nice and the girl at the snack bar was very friendly and courteous.

Rude staff. No fairways. Staff member forced me to hit into golfers in front of me. Ended up going about 20 yds past them thankfully. Unless it's your 1st year golfing, I would not play this course.

Needs a marshal for pace of play. Tee boxes need to be replaced in a bad way. Could be a great little public course with a little love, and a marshal

No staff member present on the course or at 1st tee
Group came around 18 and drove to 2nd hole to continue playing.
People jumping around groups
Very slow pace of play

6 groups ahead of us stacked at the first tee. Wouldn’t let anyone tee off the back side. We teed off 40 mins after our tee time and played 12 holes in 5.5 hours. Will never come back!

What used to be the go-to affordable course for years is easily the biggest waste of time and money now, and it doesn’t seem to be changing for the good anytime soon. Riverside is one of the worst managed courses in the area now. The last few times I have gone, I have booked my tee time through GolfNow and when my group has gotten to the course, they either change our tee time to 30min or and hour later, or send us out along with 4 other groups at the same time. Every tee box you will be waiting way too long, followed by a choppy tee box, teeing off into unidentifiable fairways, riddled with goose crap, tree limbs and scattered trash.

Lastly, I knew I was never coming back to this course after I booked my tee time through Golf Now, same thing happened where there pushed our tee time back 40 min, we played the round, and 2 weeks later I got an email from GolfNow that I was being charged $90 for failing to make it to my tee time, that we were there for, but Riverside claims we weren’t there. We pay at the course when we book through GolfNow with Riverside, so they basically made us pay double for a round. When I called Riverside they had no interest in looking into the situation or helping in anyway. The rudest staff I have ever dealt with, consistently. We played here strictly because it is close, and affordable, but if they are pulling that scheme it’s not.

I cannot emphasize enough how much I do NOT recommend this place to anyone. Save your money, or pay up a little to play elsewhere.

Awful course. Rude staff. Even worse pace of play.

Fairways really aren't fairways but basically unmowed grass you'd find in your backyard. The greens, surpringly, were in great condition.

If you come to the course make sure to bring plenty of bug spray depending on the season. Came back with tons of big bites.

Starter and staff were friendly and nice.

It’s a fun little “dumpy” course. Walt the owner is super nice and is always trying to keep the place up. RSGC is a Fenton mainstay. You get what you pay for but you gotta love it!

The course is terrible. Isn’t maintained. You can tell they put the bare minimum into maintenance. Staff is not friendly at all. They walk around with arrogance for some reason. The cart guy was pretty nice. And the hot dogs weren’t terrible but everything else was just sad
