Riverbend Golf Complex
About
The Riverbend Golf Complex sits along the Green River in Kent Valley, Wash. Owned and operated by the City of Kent, the complex offers a championship, 18-hole course and a mini-golf course. The 18-hole course is one of the busiest in the state with more than 65,000 rounds played on it annually. The golf course sprawls across a relatively flat landscape, making it easily walkable. Though it may not be hilly, that doesn't mean it's trouble free. There are more than 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout and three lakes come into play as well. The layout is player friendly, with enough variety to appeal to players of all skill levels.

The golf outing. Photo submitted by mastergolfer12 on 09/26/2012
Greens are soft and slowly, fairways are in good condition. It’s a little bit crowded today and I spent 5hours to finish 18 holes. In general, it’s money worth course.
Great round at Riverbend
I was looking for an early morning round to kick off my weekend and found a 6:36am tee time at Riverbend at a great price. I checked in just before 6:30 and the pro shop told me that I had the option to wait for the other golfers to show or go off if I was ready, so I teed it up and headed out. As the first one out I got to watch the course crew do their work, but they didn’t slow me down as I finished in 2 hours and 20 minutes (walking). The greens were in great condition as were the fairways even with all of the rain that we have had in the area. A great way to kick off my weekend!
Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing TOP PICK

Easter
We were the second group off. The first was a threesome and we had four. Never saw the group in front of us. The greens were still bumpy and sandy from a couple of weeks ago aerification.

Course. Is not what it used to be.
The course is not in very good condition at this time. The restaurant was closed. The rates are too high for this course at this time. They also did not charge the golf now rate until I had to correct them.

Good course.
Course was in good condition for winter. Some wet spots but most of the course was good. Restaurant and lounge is closed and limited snacks in pro shop.

Early March Round
Riverbend is a good public course and route where you can be assured the pace will move along and the greens will be consistent. This weeks round was no different. Despite being our wet time of year. The course was very playable. A few bunkers had standing water but for the most port they drained well. Greens were spongy to receiver irons, but still rolled well.
Only complaint was no food/drink/window etc r restaurant. Just. A sign in the door - Closed. Would have loved to have a beer at the turn on the fist sunny day in a while.

Solid layout
Pretty open but easy to get in trouble if your not consistent.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, u314162427393! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Riverbend Golf Complex.
Sort of slow
4 hours 36 minutes is not awful but for some reason, I was in a twosome. 2 groups ahead of us was also a twosome. We were both there at he time they teed off. Should have paired us with them. Nice to see the bunkers raked!
Hello, dmichel1. Thank you for visiting us at Riverbend Golf Complex. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Winter golf is not the best
A day of golf is always better than a day at work. Good, challenging course, normally in great condition. Many greens are in mediocre to poor shape this time of year. The back-nine is lower so much wetter than the front nine. Most groups were moving briskly, but a couple were impeding progress. Enjoyable, but not great.

Great Course
Great course with a nice layout. Restaurants and bar is closed so no amenities other than snacks in the pro shop. Pro shop does have a good selection.

Lots of ball marks not fixed on greens. Lots of divots not replace on Fairways. Would be nice if you found an operator for the restaurant.
