Topic starter   [#2764]

Tee Time: 12:20

Rate: GolfNow HD $78

Tees: Firm for putting tees in but turf was good and tees were flat  

Fairways: Course wall to wall overseed  Fairways in good shape  

Bunkers: Perfectly fine  

Greens: Smooth and receptive but slow compared to what they “looked like”

Gators: ZERO

POP: 4 hours and 20 minutes  

Cart Paths: Great

 

This Arnold Palmer course is always one of my favorites. Hole 8 and 9 are worth the price of admission and the finishing three holes might be the best finishing stretch in MB.

I saw a recent photo of RE, showing the green very green, so I 
figure they are overseeded.  By afternoon, they slow down, 
compared to all bermuda in a few weeks.  
Plus RE is known for slow greens.    
I am hoping RE gets new greens in 2027, after ST Jones. 
No there has not been any announcement.   

I have seen gators behind #11 green or across the lake where
there are houses.    

Thanks for your reports!

Thanks for reporting.  I like RE a lot.  Art is right, new greens would be nice.  Your pace of play was pretty good. Glad you enjoyed the round.

Thanks for the review!$78 Hot Deal is solid value for Rivers Edge. Wall-to-wall overseed, good fairways, perfect bunkers, and smooth (if slow) greens — sounds like nice conditions overall.No gators again, and 4:20 for a twosome is reasonable.Hole 8-9 plus that strong finishing stretch really make it a favorite — classic Palmer design shine. Definitely one of the better deals in the area right now.
