Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play Riverside Hills for optimal conditions?

We always recommend visiting Riverside Hills in late spring or early fall. The course is in peak condition then, with lush fairways and greens that truly roll. You'll avoid the summer heat and the chill of winter, making for a much more enjoyable round.

What's the biggest challenge or most memorable hole at Riverside Hills?

Without a doubt, the par-3 14th hole is the one everyone talks about. It plays significantly downhill to a green guarded by the river on the left, demanding a precise iron shot. Don't be afraid to take an extra club if the wind is swirling-it often is.

Is Riverside Hills a good value, and what's the typical pace of play like?

For the quality of the layout and conditions, Riverside Hills offers excellent value, especially on weekdays. Pace of play is generally good, around four hours, but we suggest booking an early morning tee time on weekends to avoid any potential bottlenecks.

Beyond the course, what amenities does Riverside Hills offer, especially for a post-round meal?

The clubhouse at Riverside Hills has a fantastic grill room with a patio overlooking the 18th green. Their "Riverbend Burger" is a must-try, perfectly paired with a local craft beer. It's the ideal spot to recount your birdies and bogeys.

What's one piece of advice or specific club I should bring to tackle Riverside Hills?

You absolutely need to be comfortable with your hybrid or a long iron for approach shots. Many greens are elevated or have tricky run-offs, requiring a shot with a bit more loft and stopping power than a typical fairway wood. Practice those uphill lies!
