Long Fairway
Bryan T.

Fun quick course in Chesapeake. The greens were a little hard but playable, houses lined a majority of the course and the fairways and bunkers were well maintained. There were three golfers infront of us that had no golf etiquette, ended up having to jump a hole past them as they were on at least a 4 hour pace, and taking multiple hits off the tee box. Interacted with another golfer after and he was just as Unfriendly. The staff was super friendly and the prices were affordable, definitely adding this gem into my regular golf rotation.

We had a Christmas company party here last night. The location was great. There were plenty of parking spaces. The venue itself was beautifully decorated for Christmas. They had a lovely entrance area. I also noticed they had a bridal room for brides to get ready before their wedding ceremony. They have a grand ballroom with a small bar area attached and a small buffet area to serve food. The servers were very attentive. The food was okay. (I'll review on the caterers on their yelp page). I had a great time.

Annual Mayor's Breakfast honoring our Veterans!

Enjoyed the annual breakfast for Veterans for the Mayor. The location is very nice and beautiful surroundings. I do suggest a nice spring cleaning on the banquet area. There were tons of cobwebs just handing from the chandeliers over the tables and lots of dust!!! It could use some updating to attract new clients for events. The staff was very friendly.

Nice Par Five!

For the employees to make you feel like they want you there. The greens are in terrible shape. It use to be a nice place.

My son goes to golf camp here every year. The staff is great, it's reasonably priced, and my kids have fun. Love it.

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!

Let me start by saying Riverfront is a beautiful course. That being said still does not out weigh…read morethe bad. On June 24th 2021 my brother and I had a tee time booked for 5:03pm. We had been looking forward to playing this course for weeks now. We get there and pay our money, 40$ a piece for 18 not bad.. The starter never said a word so we grabbed a cart and got our bags and headed to number 1. Approaching our tee time we headed towards the box, only to be stopped by a group of 4 saying "we are in a tournament" y'all can't play ahead of us. So we waited and waited for multiple groups in the "tournament" to go ahead of us. We finally flagged down I'm assuming the course manager for the day. And asked how many more groups are left in the tournament? He barked his reply, " y'all are not playing number 1, if y'all wanted to play y'all should not be on 1 go to 10" long story short being out there for 3 hours we only played 7 holes because they packed the course with tournament people and continuously over booked people knowing it would be slow. The attitude of the staff at the course was not welcoming and not appreciated. And ultimately it was a waste of money. I understand golf can be slow sometimes but usually everybody tries to keep the pace of play steady. It was just poor course management and they seemed to not care at all about the non tournament players that day. I will not be back for a long time, as I can go elsewhere and be treated with respect and have a better time.

Used this public course to host an annual charity golf tournament with 50-75 players from…read more2010-2016. Affordable cost @ $25 per golfer (included 18 holes and cart use) obviously helped the fundraising bottom-line. Fairways, greens and cart paths were in acceptable shape for that price point. While out of their control, know there are times players are prepping to swing while next to chain-linked fences with obnoxious barking dogs. There are also points where you're sharing roads/travel paths with local traffic, similar to other public courses. Facilities are notably dated but the spaces we occupied were relatively clean. There's a small practice green and driving range on-site. It was super easy working with their golf-pro Adam to coordinate the play aspect; he was thorough and accommodating with any needs that arose. Unfortunately, requiring events to use in-house food/beverage vendors that lack communication and execution became a perennial drawback. Inflated cost is expected because of the convenience factor. That said, limited selection coupled with poor service and delivery ($50 for a small plate of store bough chips-a-hoy cookies) is inexcusable. I had to send out search parties in multiple years for the contracted beverage cart employee on days seeing 85-90 degree temps. Over time, our players voiced displeasure traveling to Portsmouth and a desire to pay a little more for a better playing experience.

I didn't actually golf but I had an event to attend to in the event center. You could definitely…read moretell it was outdated and possibly could remodel a bit to make it a bit more modern. It was bad however. It was nice and spacious and it was very clean! I could see myself having an event here but I would add a lot of decorations and accessories to match my modern style.
