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
Good coarse
The coarse was very flat, personally not my preference, but the fairways and greens were in nice shape. It’s a fairly easy coarse and easy to play with no coarse knowledge. Fairway map at tee boxes were good. Good coarse for the price
Very quick round.
Tee time was 515, guys teeing off at 524 asked if we wanted to go first. Sure glad we did. My 3 some finished in 3 hours. Saw the group behind us when we were Walking to 9 tee. They were hitting 2nd shots on 6!

Always Enjoyable at The Bend
I play Riverbend every year and always leave the round enjoying the variation of shots, lengths and typically feel the course is fair and very playable. Greens were great, consistent speed. The bunkers were also well kept- better than last year about the same time when they were a little thin and burnt out.

Bunkers drag ratings down
Riverbend is a good layout and greens are typically in good shape during the summer. The bunkers are terrible tho. This course would rate higher, but the bunkers are mostly mud/Hardman. Stay out of them at all cost.

Not bad for this time of year
Despite the ongoing wet weather, conditions were better than expected. Fairways and greens pretty decent, with only a few soggy areas. Pace of play was slow, taking almost 5 hours to play 18.
