About Riverside Golf Courses

The 18 hole course is opening January 12, 2024. The 9 hole course at Riverside will remain closed until Spring 2024

Riverside is a golf course for the whole family. It is located just four miles south of downtown San Antonio and features an 18-hole championship layout and a 9-hole par 3 course. The San Antonio River splits the front and back nine. This south-side course is an old fixture of San Antonio that provides a quality golf experience for every ability level.

One of San Antonio's oldest golf courses, Riverside's front nine opened in 1929. In 1968 11 holes were added to make a full 18 holes, and the existing back nine was added in 1974. Because the two sides were built at different times, each offers a different experience. The front nine features tree-lined fairways, penalizing errant tee shots. The back nine "opens up" with less trees and more birdie opportunities.

The first hole is a challenging par 5 that entices many golfers to "go for it in two", however the green is guarded by stately oak trees on each side of the green which make accuracy and length a must. One of Riverside's signature holes is the par 5 #16 - a double dogleg with a large water hazard. Overall, the course is very forgiving for beginner golfers and makes for a fun day of golf.

If you want to work on your short game, the 9-hole Par 3 course is always available. It is a unique layout that winds through large trees, with holes ranging from 80 yards to 120 yards in length. The small, yet undulating greens provide a great setting to work on your wedge game.
