About this course
Riverbend Golf Course follows the Jordan River through Riverton in Salt Lake County, Utah, at the south end of the Salt Lake Valley. Elevated tees and overlooks give golfers views across surrounding wetlands and riparian habitat along the riverbank.
The front nine is largely flat with several water hazards and bunkers, while the back nine dips toward the Jordan River through trees, including numerous Russian olives, and passes near wetlands that draw local wildlife such as deer and foxes.
Riverbend is a public course owned and operated by Salt Lake County, with a full practice area, pro shop and restaurant on site. It offers senior and junior discounts and can host golf outings and tournaments.
