Reviews of Riverwood National Golf Course (Golf)

David Thompson

I was disappointed April 30, 2019 in the morning. I stopped by to get a half bucket of balls for the driving range. I paid the $5.00. Then, I saw guys working on the range. The two people in the Pro Shop said it would be several hours before they would be done so the range could not be used. I requested my $5.00 back. They returned my payment. If I was the retailer, I would have offered a coupon for a free half bucket of balls because the customer made the trip and was not able to use the range. It seems a small price to pay for enhancing a customer’s opinion of the operation. Many times, a little goodwill goes a long way. In the future if I decide to return there, I will call them to make sure they are allowing the range to be used so now they will have to answer the phone

Fairways in Greens are in great shape! Starting to want to golf here not because it's closest to my house, but it's that much fun. A very challenging track, with fairways and greens benefiting from a wet season and outstanding maintenance!

Rob Gamache

Awesome course that’s just a hop skip and a jump from the cities. Fairly difficult course with some tricky landing areas and stellar greens. Awesome club house and very friendly and accommodating staff. Great PCC course if you are a member!

Jody D Gustafson

Great track

Curt ODonnell

Nice open course

Luke Gildemeister

Played the front 9 in spring 2018 - given the winter we had, the course was in incredible shape. Fun course to play - will be back to play all 18. Thank you for being a PCC course.

Erik Fredrick

Great course and well maintained.

David DeLano

Very tough course, picturesque.

Won Chol Kim

Awesome golf course quite difficult for a beginner alot of trouble off the tee

Gary Williamson

Horrible. Do not golf in afternoon evening. Locals jump on course in front of you and cause major log jams. No marshal monitoring play.

Jane Theisen

Very good food and drink

Camden Goepferd

Good course with a good mix of terrain, length and openness. Course it’s self is well kept. The cart path needs quite a bit of work and some of the lower elevation holes flood when it rains. Fun to play overall and always challenging.

Chuck & Ginny Martinson

Normally the course is in good shape but yesterday morning before we golfed it rained very hard so there was alot of standing water and we weren't able to drive carts in fairways. Certainly not their fault.

Toni Seroshek

Fun course! Staff always friendly! Great golf! New comfortable carts with GPS. Restaurant good too!

Jill casey

This course is still maturing but challenging and fun to play. And great seat on the golf carts!

Gary Sather

Only got 9 in before it stormed. The course was in great shape, beautiful greens. We played the back nine. A little tight and a few forced carries off the tee Will go back!

Thomas Shelquist

Good experience and good Food

Bryan Skavnak

Great place for golf and events. New clubhouse and restaurant remodel is very nice.

Paul A Iverson

Heidi and I stopped in for the two-for-one drinks and we had awesome 1/2 Burger we enjoyed ourselves first time since the renovation

Wife had gotten me Living Social offer for course, SO GLAD SHE DID! Though was well over an hour trip from East of St. Paul, well worth it. Played on a beautiful summer Wednesday afternoon, round went fast, rangers kept folks moving, great challenging layout, mostly Links feel. Tee boxes/greens in very good shape. Seemed like little play, conditions & staff were great. Friendly in clubhouse, seemed to appreciate my business. As a Private Club member, I've become finicky, this will be a place to return to!

Garrett Isaacson

OMG! How can a course allow a group outing to backlog a course for that long? Went out there with a twosome and got behind a sixsome that took 3:10 to complete the front nine. To top off the idiocy let's just take a group photo on the ninth green while groups are waiting in the fairway to play. Got to the back and followed a local foursome who thought the whole course was there's. Etiquette people! Very challenging course to play if you want it to be.

Adam Knoke

I'm a big fan of this course overall. The layout is fun and challenging, but plays pretty fair. The conditions are always great. The staff is always very nice, but seem to have no clue occasionally about the players on the course. Been told multiple times that the course is wide open only to come to a grinding halt 3 holes in because there are 6 foursomes ahead of me. Worth the drive from the metro area, but would be helped immensely by having a ranger on the course keeping pace of play.

David Valerius

Great course, a lot of up and down.

Mark Myhre

Poor layout, too soggy.

jonnycees5150

Love this course

Robbie Smith

Riverwood is a course that provides a challenge and is always in very nice shape. The pro shop staff are very friendly. Evan, always has a smile and wants to know about my game.

Laura Rothi

Great burgers and great service. We'll be back.

Cory Tolliver

Amazing quality course. Greens run amazing. Very friendly staff. Very good food in the bar

Saint Hockey

Great course! Steve Fessler is a great Pro there and is willing to help anybody, anytime on anything. The course is planned out well and you will use all the clubs in your bag. When playing the course, be a course manager or your score will skyrocket.

Kevin Johannsen

Unique and fun course with great greens. Tee it up there when in the area.

Matthew Larson

Good place to gold love the driving range

Craig Sinclair

Course has a good variety of challenges. Good variety of hazards. Lots of nearby houses and the rough is all overgrown weeds, which is the biggest negative. Still, for the price, a good course to play.

Robbie Smith

Riverwood is a course that provides a challenge and is always in very nice shape. The pro shop staff are very friendly. Evan, always has a smile and wants to know about my game.

Marsha Stafne

Greens were hard & fast. Challenging course. Like it!

Won Kim

Great course but very challenging

Mike Lynch

Nice layout, needs somes TLC

Matthew Salmela

A young golf course close to a busy road. Not much shade as a lot of the trees haven't grown in yet. Fairways were lumpy and didn't lend themselves to good lies even if your drive landed 10 yards from the 150 marker. Greens were in decent shape and played very fast when I was there. I didn't eat there, but the tavern area looked almost upscale. Not terrible value for the inexpensive green fees.

Mark Gessinger

Nice course

Jonathan Nyquist

slow

Richard Keefe

This is a excellent golf course. A lot or target shooting and you definitely use all your clubs . Thanks for the great layout. Richie.

Ryan Schmidt

Much improved from 2 years ago

Jonathan Pulju

Very enjoyable..narrow fairways with many elevation changes

Ben Lanners

Great course and fair prices

Brian Hill

Course was very nice food and service was excellent. If i had to find something to say is we had hard time yardage markers.price was great too.

scott filut

The course is shape. Lots of oppertunities to score if you are willing to take some risk of the tee box, but plenty playable even if you stay safe. Friendly staff and a great pub in the clubhouse I will definitely be back.

John K

Nice course. Challenging

Ron Whitlock

Tough challenging course

Aaron Stang

Great place for a round. Friendly staff.

Spreadeagle Steve

Gotta go with a 1 here. Tried playing an afternoon round, ran into a handful of locals jumping holes completely unaware of people actually trying to play a round. Major pile ups. Not proud of it, but finally had to resort to the Riverwood way and started going to open holes. Very poor etiquette.

Maddie Johnson

I just love it here

Judie Zaske

Course in excellent condition

Aaron Newbloom

People seemed very concerned with dollars and cents, not so much with customer experience.

adam Overby

Too expensive

Steve Huttner

Wierd lay out and yardage markers different yardages then most courses 135 instead of 150.

John Foss

Fun course
