About
Laid out on the east banks of the White River in the town of Fishers, this par-71 Gary Kern design offers a pleasant parkland round of golf. As a country club that is open for public play, River Glen serves up a friendly atmosphere and superb course conditions. Recent renovations have elevated the course in the eyes of locals and visitors alike, and it is regarded as one of Hamilton County’s best places for a round.

Very slow rate of play. Single foursome holding up 6 groups behind. Ranger/clubhouse was no help.
Great course condition
Visiting from out of town, I’d definitely recommend this course. Greens and fairways in great shape, and the rough was very playable. We were the second group to tee off, so the course was still quite wet from the evening dew, but things warmed/dried up.
Was really impressed with the condition of the course. As mentioned by others, the 8 minute spacing between groups is pretty tight, and we had a twosome chasing us the whole round.
Just 4 holes surrounded by houses, which is always a concern for me as a new golfer. But fairways are pretty wide, and appreciated.
Tee times too close
I love this course. Its where I learned to golf, however, I hardly ever go to this course unless it’s the only place available. The pace of play is horrendous. They jam pack the course with tee times every 7 or 8 minutes. There are 3 groups on nearly every hole. This course needs to chill out with tee times so close together. It’s a gem, but it’s unplayable with the way they jam people on to the course

Where to start… amenities… ball washers, trash cans, yardage books on every cart, bathrooms on each 9, yardage markers… you feel good paying money to play here. Staff…employees are awesome from the pro shop to the cart barn to the course keepers, superintendent, and his pup….to the bartenders and starters.
River Glenn is a top 5 golf course and experience on a golf course in this city. Secluded, however a couple holes have houses to keep your game honest, I like it. It plays along the White River so when your game sucks at least that’s awesome.
It’s simple enough to see how many different ways you can play it but equally difficult to ruin ever plan you had. Precision beats power here and I love that.
Play here all the time if you can, help take care of it, and test your game.
My only critique is the greens need some work. They were playable but in rougher shape than what you would expect from this course. Otherwise, I had a great experience here and recommend. Price is more than fair.
Excellent.
Lovely course with a friendly staff. Not much more you could want. I was able to play as a single starting around 440 or so and several groups let me play through, I just got stuck behind a foursome from 15-18 but otherwise pace of play was way better than expected and everyone treated me with respect while I was there. Can’t wait to return!
