Reviews

This course has been reviewed 2 time

Riverview is in the midst of an area with nice courses, though many of the others are private and/or very expensive. Therefore, for the price, Riverview is a good deal (especially better than in nearby Jersey).

One special feature: An unbelievable number of sand traps, which are very well maintained; challenging, but attractive. Also a couple of interesting/unique holes (island green, elevation changes). Everyone I have spoken to enjoys the course, and--at least so far this season--it is never crowded . . .

I live close to this course(within 1 mile). The day I played, the greens had been aerated. Nothing was mentioned about this when I called only when I showed up and paid my money. Also, there was no price reduction due to this. In addition, major constuction was being done to one of the holes with equipment and workers "swarming" the green. Again, nothing was mentioned about this at the pro shop. The course is a very nice course overall, but the above mentioned facts were quite irritating at the time.
