Golf is my new thing…read more I got some golf clubs and shoes for Christmas. My clubs are in a super cute purple and black bag. I've played twice before - once here and the other time at a range out close to Smithfield. I'd like to step my game up and actually hit the ball more than I ruin the green. Getting to the point, Riverfront is a beautiful course. I'm somewhat afraid of hitting a house from the course......eh, who am I kidding, I can't hit the ball that hard and far anyway ;). I've been to the driving range once, on our second visit, they were closed. Bummer. I do like that you drive off the grass and not mats. Lastly, this might be common sense to the golf pros out there, but its important to note that you have to have a collared shirt and cannot wear jeans on the driving range.

About myself: Play Riverfront anywhere from 4-5 times per month. Not a member but often play with…read moremembers. Pros: Riverfront is typically in good shape. For a course south of the Hampton Roads tunnels, Riverfront is usually a good bet that you will have decent tee box, good greens (with some exceptions), and clean fairways. Staff are generally friendly. Cons: Grounds crew is oblivious to the players. Typically find them with headphones on and unaware of their surroundings. Always have a problem with bunkers, bunkers are rarely raked and players don't do the course any favors by cleaning bunkers after use. Expect high load of divot marks on the greens. Normal to have to fix divot marks before a putt. If you are off the fairway, come to expect to have to hit off unmaintained areas (dirt, pine straw or debris). Maintenance ends at the fairway, rough is typically cut similar to fairway. If there is any rain the night before and you have an early tee time, expect no range as it is often closed. Unacceptable: The manager (Brian) is unfriendly and unloyal. How he maintains his job is not understood by members and players that know the staff. Example: Today I witnessed (why I decided to write a review) a twosome that went out for the first tee time (7 AM). Within the twosome were myself and a member of 5+ years that plays golf at Riverfront upwards of 4 times a week. We were provided awareness that a tournament would be going out at 8:30 and that it was starting on the back nine and stretched to hole 12. No additional direction was given. We reached hole 16 and ran into the tournament beginning play. Unfortunately, we folded in between the tournament groups and tee'd off on 16. We were met at our ball by a marshal. The marshal stated we needed to wait until the entire tournament went through before we picked up our play again....so other words wait 1.5-2 hrs for the entire tournament to go through. We let the marshal know that was unrealistic and that we would be able to fold into the group, finish our two holes and not hold anyone up. The marshal was favorable to that course of action, but the pro shop returned with an answer of we would shut down the cart until they leave. We finished 16 and then headed into the pro shop. Going into the pro shop the member requested a 9-hole rain check believing that was a good compromise to an unfortunate situation. He was offered by Brian, $5. Considering the long wait, we would have had to finish our round, the poor management of tee times (there was a twosome behind us) and the fact we were unable to finish our round that we paid for, we thought this was a good compromise. Brian disagreed to the point he ended up refunding the member over $800 for the remainder of his membership at the club. So, a long-term member, who spends over $500 a month additional at the course, and the upwards of $400 I spend at the course a month were not worth a nine-hole rain check due to an inconvenience on both the course and ourselves. In closing: I am sure this review will be met with the same professionalism and loyalty as presented today. Unfortunately, this professionalism is normal for management. If you want a decent course to play and have to stick south of the tunnel, no doubt Riverfront is worth the time. Do not expect you to be at the forefront of the management's concerns. Customers at Riverfront are not always right!

Not many of us travel to Portsmouth for golf but heading to this place is always a treat. The course doesn't play too long and isn't overly difficult. What is so great about this course are the greens. They roll as smooth as glass. The course is located on some sort of body of water and has some beautiful views.

There was only 1 Glow Golf in Yelp for Hampton Roads and this one is inside MacArthur mall - 2nd floor, South Side area. Walking in, it's actually hard to find where the main area is, but just keep walking, it's on the right mid-way through. The prices are very reasonable. It's $10 per adult for 3 rounds of the holes. It's best to set your expectation properly when going here. Don't expect to be woo'd in amazement about how intricate or crazy the courses are. It's basically putt-putt in the dark with a few black lights overhead. I'm not trying to down play this but I am trying to set the bar properly. It was a very rainy day and we didn't want to be stuck indoors at home so off to the mall we went. THIS is the advantage of this place. It's basically something to do when it's convenient for you. Would we do this again? Sure, if the conditions were right. Food Taste: n/a Overall Service: 4 Value of food to cost: 4 Facility: 3 Repeat customer: yes Dog Friendly: no

I stopped by to see if they had and Jordan Jumpman brand items like they sell on line! Sadly to say unless I overlooked it there was not one piece of clothing that displayed the jumpman Jordan brand, not one!!!.. I didn't even see any of the Jordan retro sneakers that they display on line either! I even put it a raffle for a pair of 11 Jordan Gama, size 11 on line but yet they didn't have not one pair of Jordan retro to sell.. Maybe I'm missing something but that seems like false advertising if you have stuff on line but nothing in store? Maybe I came at a bad time,I will not rule that out but this sure is a disappointment in my opinion! Will I return you ask? Sure, but only if I see what I'm looking for in store first!!..

Rivers needs to do better with their Top Golf reservations. I made a reservation a week ago on…read moreOpenTable and received a confirmation for a party of 6 for a birthday celebration. My guest and I show up Friday 9/29, after waiting around for two hours in the casino for them to tell us Top Golf is closed for the night. No phone calls, no text, no email before. All we got was an excuse that the general manager closed all the suites because none of the suites were paid for and they didn't have any extra waitresses to cover the area. This is totally unacceptable and ridiculous. I don't know where the disconnection is with Open Table and the Casino but online doesn't ask you to pay to reserve a suite. Furthermore as a manager how do you not check online reservations before shutting down the whole area? I had ppl who showed up at 11pm just to play Top Golf, this was a complete waste of people's time. And a round of drinks the supervisor gave doesn't make up for ruining a planned birthday celebration. I could have just went to Virginia Beach. Also the MAJOR issue with this location, NO ONE answers the phone ever! I tried calling after getting my confirmation email to ask a question, got no response. Even calling the main casino phone no one answers, you get put on hold forever and then transferred to a voicemail. I know this casino just opened but to have no type of customer service available to answer calls makes no sense. Thanks to the waitress at the betrivers bar that was understanding and had great energy. Other than that if you want the Top Golf experience go to the full location, you can't depend on when they going to choose to have the area open. I don't even know why it's there, it a waste of space.

The final time being when I asked for a package that was dropped off, never actually heard front of house staff using profanities in front of customers. Some of the staff reached with either nepotism or desperation hires, as some were clearly not trained in hospitality or customer service. The valet was a whole other issue, was told that it would be on our hotel bill, but it ended up not being. The valets were inconsistent with service and urgency. I even have one slightly rude when I asked to make change, mind you the change, I was asking to make was to tip them. Again, reeking of either nepotism or desperation hires for staffing. The concierge lounge was adequate, a couple of the attendants were quite friendly and helpful, but one gentleman was borderline rude. It almost seemed like one young man was living in there, as he was there all hours of the day and night at times watching the TV with the volume all the way up. Again, could've just been a guest, but it was slightly awkward. I would stay here again, if no other options were available, that being said if any other Marriott property in Norfolk were available, I would choose them over this property. It's a shame, because this location is absolutely fantastic and terribly convenient. Hopefully there is a significant management or staffing change, and we will get to try this property again, but otherwise I will strictly avoid. Housekeeping seemed to be very attentive and did a great job on my room. It was very clean and comfortable for my stay. One party in our group had to be moved because she found multiple roaches in her room. Nearly 2 weeks after my stay was completed, and I still have not received nights, points or spend credit on my Bonvoy account....another indicator as most well run properties post this 3-5 days after stays.
