Fantastic Course

I loved the course. It was my 1st time playing here. There are not too many trees so the greens are wider and it's easier to spot your ball after swings. Overall, great location and the course is well taken care of.

First Time Playing

First time at Riverwalk

Needed help with GPS settings as Friars nine is no longer in play (but still offered on GPS defaults).
Also had to look up rating/slope on website after the round — that information should be on every scorecard. Shouldn’t have to search for it.

Overpriced

Can’t believe how much they charge now, almost a 40% increase in greens fees over the last year. The quality and condition of the course can’t justify this price. Maybe the worst bang for your buck in San Diego.

Decent

Had 2 clubs stolen from my bag while in pro shop.
The tee boxes need work, the greens are overgrown to prevent burnout so veryyy slow, also bumpy and choppy. Fun and forgiving course to play. Pace is slow.

The first 2 holes were very wet and marsh like lots of standing water alongside the first green cart path this continued to the 2nd tee box.
I understand the course is located in the river bottom so will plan my next visit based on time of year.
I do like the improvements that are being done on the back 9.
Did see a few people on foot and bikes crossing various fairways.

So bad

Terrible course, maybe good for first time beginners but WAY overpriced. You’re better off going to Mission Bay or Admiral Baker South. Terrible pace, unorganized. Will never play here again. TOO EXPENSIVE, ridiculous prices.
