The signature hole is #9, a 192-yard, par 3, requiring a tee shot into a prevailing wind that must carry all the way up to the green at the top of the hill.

It was hard to find my way around. I played the front nine. I was unsure of one green wheiter I was on the right one or not. The holes seem to be very close together. I will play at Neosho next time. The green fee's were cheap though $11.00 for 18 holes.

Never Guess It's Public, Jun 07, 2006

reviewer: Love To Golf from Kansas

This course is great for a public course. The greens and fairways are in great shape. Though it can get crowded on weekends, a week day game is usually easy to get in with little hassel. The only down side is you can easily get lost and hit off the wrong tee or at the wrong green if you don't pay attention to the signs. But once you've played it, you remember. Rates are reasonable for such a good course.

Riverside Golf Course
"I love Riverside"
Riverside is my favorite of all courses that I have golfed. Golf is a laid back and fun pastime. I fell in love with the game at Riverside. If you are in the neighborhood you should definately play a round.

"Fun, yet challenging for any level golfer..."
The course will grow on you. The first time I played it, the course kicked my hind-parts. Every hole has a different look and challenge. The fairways and greens are always in great shape, even though they don't overseed in the cold months. Because the course sits high, even though it was built on wetlands, there is always wind, and therefore a challenge. The course will beckon you back time and again. Very nice play and good staff.

"Beautiful and challenging old-style course"
This a beautiful, scenic golf course which will challenge every golfer, regardless of handicap. The maturity of this course, which includes huge oak trees and large shade trees, gives the impression of walking in a park, with the added enjoyment of playing golf. Even though the length of the course is short by modern standards, that is where the challenge lies. Drives must be accurate, and pitch shots precise. The greens are deceptive and fast, and are well-bunkered. The clubhouse is very well-planned, with great views of the course from the men's lounge and dining room areas. The men's locker room has been remodeled, and I guarantee that Luis, the locker room chief, will never forget your name. He is a wonder. One golfing visit to this club will make you wish you could live in the area so that you could apply for membership -- it is a memorable golfing experience.
