To add to Tony's comments from 10 years ago, I have played Riverside since I was a kid and sadly it…read morehasn't improved. While the clubhouse is nice, the burgers good, and the staff friendly, the course itself is at best a raggedy, neglected goat ranch. So it's a 'good value' only in the sense that you're not paying much for a crummy course. Fairways are mainly low-cut weeds and crabgrass, while the greens are low-cut dead weeds and lumpy, hardpacked dirt and sand. The course is in the hood, and the sound of not-too-distant gunfire not uncommon. If you're intent on going, watch yourself and don't leave valuables in your car. If you have a carry permit, carry. Riverside is bordered on the east by a noisy expressway, on the north by a gravel pit, and the water Tony mentions to the west is not the Mississippi River, but McKellar Lake - the smelly, highly polluted, garbage-filled Memphis industrial harbor. There are prehistoric remnants of cart paths between #1 and #2, between #4 and #5, and between #5 and #6. The actual course layout, while short, makes a primitive but fun track with many deep ravines, hills, thick woods, overgrown areas, and OB to the right on 7 of the 9 holes. Most holes are par 4, with one par 3 and one par 5. Also, plenty (as in plenty) of snakes, so don't go poking around in the rough or down in the ravines - even though you see brand new golf balls down there. Insects of every description (mainly mosquitos, flies, gnats, ticks) are plentiful. In short, this course and it's ancient layout could be a gem if the city spent some money on it, maintained it, and improved security. Don't mean to be overly-critical, but out-of-towners and other neophytes need to know what they're getting into. If you're looking for a decent municipal course in Memphis, go to Overton Park GC on Poplar Ave or Galloway GC on Walnut Grove Rd. And watch yourself.

Really a great value. It only has nine holes. But for $14 with cart. Wow. It's close to Downtown…read moreand pretty well maintained. Plus you can actually see the river. A quick review of the course is it's a little hilly. There is no sand or water. The first 6 greens seem to be a Bermuda hybrid which makes it a little difficult to putt. And there isn't a cart path. So don't let these things surprise you. Another neat feature of this course is they have foot golf. Three days a week they close the golf course for soccer golf. It's 18 holes and you actually kick soccer balls from a tee box into 50 gallon cans they have sunk into the ground. Nice alternative for the younger crowd who don't want to play golf. This really is a great option for a quick round of golf. Make sure you check with the course for tee times before you go. It's regular golf 4 days and foot golf the other three. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did. Have fun and hit them straight.

We drove 40 minutes in the afternoon and arrived to the course at 5:40pm and was told by two separate employees that they were "no longer giving out carts after 5:30" even though the course closes at 8pm. While walking isn't the issue, it would take longer to walk the 9 hole course versus using a cart. They also pull the pins of the holes at 7:30 so it makes it impossible to finish your round. While we understand wanting to go home after a work day, it has felt as of lately that the employees prioritize leaving on time rather than the customer experience.

Quite possibly one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a golf course. While the grounds were…read moredecent, nice even, the employees were just way below the caliber of any golf establishment. I've worked in golf for 9 years and have played pretty much my entire life, but I was treated as if I knew nothing and was just some ditsy girl coming to play. I've worked in pro shops, as an instructor, and as a starter and I would NEVER talk to golfers the way my friends and I were spoken to. I understand that our world is different right now and it causes a lot of stress to those working, but it isn't that difficult to treat people respectfully. Thankfully, I didn't know this place existed before playing here and now I'll never think to go there again.

My husband is quite the avid golfer, and decided to give this course a whirl. It's 9 holes, and it…read morecost him a mere $8 green fee ($7 on weekdays) and $6 bucks for a golf cart. He and his buddies had fun simply because it is cheap and a pretty simple course. He said he will go back just to improve upon his golf skills. It is by no means an excellent course, nor should it be looked to as such. He claims that its a great way to get practice, and much more fun than the driving range. It's clean, but does need some work. There are a lot of patches that are shaded and have no grass, which from what I understand is a big no no when it comes to the rule book of golf- but what are you expecting? No, Tiger Woods prolly wouldn't be caught dead here- but it seems like a cheap, fun and close way to get your golf on in Memphis.

The inside has a very old-school bowling alley vibe. Music was playing, and the concession stand is right at the front, with lanes on both sides. You place your food order at the counter and receive a buzzer for pickup. I was actually surprised by how large their menu was for a bowling alley, and they use a classic flat-top grill to cook everything. After placing my order, I stepped aside to wait. One of the cooks asked if I had a buzzer and let me know it would go off when my food was ready--it came off a bit abrupt, but nothing major. There were plenty of lanes available, even with the crowd. The bowling shoes, however, looked very worn and outdated. The laces didn't look the cleanest, which made me a little hesitant, but I still went ahead and bowled. Food took about 30 minutes, but everything came out fresh. I ordered the Philly, which was pretty good. I also tried the blue Kool-Aid, though it tasted more like Powerade. The music selection was good and kept the energy up while bowling. The crowd continued to grow as the night went on. I also noticed they host an R&B night from 10 PM-1 AM, which could be a vibe. Overall, I had a good time and enjoyed the food, but I'm not sure if I'd return

Then give my review an extra star; low handicappers are gonna love this course. If you are not, then this course is gonna be frustrating. The fairways are very nice, but narrow and if you can't find them, you're probably OB, in a water hazard, or buried under landscaping. If you fail to lose your ball entirely to one of these fates, you're still gonna be wandering too long through the thick rough searching for it. The greens are lovely, but undulating and quick. The course is just really damn challenging for most weekend duffers. Still, the carts, customer service, clubhouse and food are really good. Definitely worth a look, but bring your A-game for sure.
