Relatively new course in Bangkok????

I believe some kakis here been to this course. Riverdale Golf Club, a 3-4 years golf club. Managed by the MBK group which also managed the Red Mountain and Loch Palm in Phuket. It's buggy compulsory and the unique of this course, is the par 3 with 2 holes, so get to choose either one.

Short course even play from the blue, expensive too.

It is expensive but an enjoyable course.

the island green photo looks like a fun hole looks pretty wide open, but i can see a lot of undulations on the fairways and greens! must have had a lot of uneven lies?

looks like a fun course!

Reminds me of Horizon Hills when it first launched! There were many young trees planted just like those photos too bt hve grown now.  
Great sharing, enwee bro. 

One needs some skill to play the island green in the pic above ... Challenging, manz!

The course is very well maintained ... Awesome! How I wish we have this kinda standard available in JB ...

The Island green is about 100-120 yards only IIRC.

Hi folks... Anyone has any ideas if it's possible to do a walk in on weekdays for the BKK courses??

Thanks!!

Depending on which course you are talking abt. But I guess if there's no competition should be ok.

Most bkk courses do accept walk in but best is to email them to confirm your date/time and number of pax. Some courses are members only so you will need to have a member to sign u in.

Thanks for the information..I found some extra afternoon and thought of walking in to the riverdale before flying.. Will see if they are ok to accommodate.

Thanks again

This is a tricky course, but conditions are excellent.   Need to have good course management.  There is a Par 3 with 2 holes to choose - up onto the hill or down to an island. 
I think it's a public course, but green fees is a bit high though.

There is a few nice course near airport, u can consider playing there and easier to make ur way down to airport after ur game. At least u are out of bkk main city traffic woes

Yes, surrounding airport got summit windmill, Lakewood, muang kaew, green valley, thana city etc

I am in BKK next week and intend to play at Lakewood or Green Valley, do pm if you are also in BKK n we can play together

Green valley is a rather nice course to play.
There is another course called Subhapruek near to the airport which is good too.

Hi folks... For those interested...
Yes..riverdale is a really nice course..
The facilities are very new and it is well maintained...

Not much shade around.. So get your brolly handy..

Greens are ok... Can see a few brown patches here and there... Maybe due to the super hot weather now...
But it's not the worst you can find...

For beginners whose balls end up in the shrubs or water 50% of the time (like me).. No worries..
They do sell balls at the break stops... Thb100 per pack...
The number of balls range from 5 -8.. Depends on the type of balls in the pack...

Enjoy folks..

Take their weekdays sports day pricing, most course in bkk offer super good deals on weekday golf!

Riverdale is nice but if really have to catch a plane after that I would recommend thana city.

Oh... If flying from don meaung.. Riverdale is great.. Took ard 20 -30 min drive from course to airport

Of course.. Better to try those courses along bang Na trat if flying from suvarnabhumi...

Just back from BKK.  Thana city course is in excellent condition.  Thailand open was supposed to be held there 2 weekends ago, but cancelled due to coup.  All thai open T-shirt clearing at 400Baht.
