This course's back nine is hilly and full of trees, while its front nine is equally hilly, but has less trees. There are ponds that come into play on three holes.

local knowledge, Jun 03, 2004

reviewer: mark from Battle Creek, MI USA

A solid course throughout the year but aspecial tough in the summer when greens are hard. Riverside is ball strikers course short holes with wide fairways. The greens are the most important part of the course. Reading the break is always tough but remembering where the nearest location of water like the kalamazoo river plays a big role. A course designed to give a challange to all players with still having a great time playing it.

Nice Course tough lies, Jan 22, 2004

reviewer: Craig from Battle Creek, Michigan

When you play this course be prepared to have a hilly lie on most fairway shots, especially on the back nine. The undulation is remarkable and this course gives an average player a run for his/her money. Mid summer the greens can be unforgiving, but still playable with corect club selection. Altogether a course well manicured and the added bonus of having a complete opposite feeling when playing the front nine and the second nine.

"Chip M."
Great golf course. Not too challenging, just perfect for my 3 handicap skill level.

"Tight and Challenging"
This course is a above average golfers dream. Length and contour is a premium. Tree lined fairways, you'd think you're in the Lincoln Tunnel.You need to play smart to score well. The below average golf will have ample oppurtunities to score well on the par 5's and the par 3's. The par 4's ,lets leave those for the big boys. In all, it is good for everyone, at a reasonable price, on a country club setting on a New England landscape.

"Pleasantly surprised"
Yes, I played tippy twice last summer, I was impressed the greens are well manicured, as are the fairways, the rough, although nearly nonexistent is playable. The fairways are hilly and narrow. Overall, it was a nice playing course for your average golfer. P.S the food in the clubhouse is excellent, try the bunger burger.
