Cherry Island Golf Course

Situated along the banks of the Trinity River and ranked among the top 25 daily fee courses in Dallas-Ft.Worth, Riverside Golf Club is perhaps the purest golf experience in the area. A challenging mix of traditional links-style holes designed by Roger Packard, this gem of a course features one of the best sets of par 3?s in Texas. Riverside has created a unique playability that is a great challenge for veteran golfers and beginners alike. Just minutes away from DFW Airport, Six Flags Over Texas, The Ballpark at Arlington, and Texas Stadium, Riverside is a natural choice for your casual round or your group event. One of the most interesting parts of the course comes on the par-4 seventh and par-3 eighth holes. The seventh, the no. 1 handicap hole, plays just under 400 yards from the tips. It is a sharp dogleg right over a lake that's also shared by the eighth, which plays 168 yards from the back tees.? The course ends with a short par 4, but it's no pushover either. The 341-yard par 4 18th has plenty of tree trouble off the tee and there are large trees protecting the green as well. In addition to the course, Cherry Island also has a driving range, short-game area, and practice putting green. Golf lessons are also available. And in the clubhouse is a well-stocked golf shop. The clubhouse restaurant, The Taphouse at Cherry Hill, is open every day until 6 p.m. Menu offerings include everything from breakfast burritos and salads to brisket burgers and a variety of beers on tap.?
