About this course

Riverview Golf Club sits along the western shore of the Susquehanna River in New Cumberland, a small borough just south of Harrisburg in south-central Pennsylvania. The course was designed by Royce Hewitt, a regional architect active in the mid-twentieth century who worked primarily in Pennsylvania and neighboring states. The layout takes advantage of its riverside setting, with several holes playing near or along the water and offering views across the Susquehanna valley. The terrain features a mix of relatively flat lowland areas near the river and gentle elevation changes as the routing moves inland. Mature trees line many fairways, and the proximity to the river can introduce wind as a factor, particularly on exposed holes. The design reflects the practical, straightforward style common to many mid-century American courses, emphasizing playability for a range of skill levels while incorporating natural features into the strategic demands of individual holes. Riverview functions as a semi-private facility serving both members and daily-fee players in the greater Harrisburg area. The club provides a traditional golf experience in a region where the sport has deep recreational roots, catering to local golfers seeking accessible play in a scenic riverside environment. The course represents a typical example of regional golf architecture from its era, shaped by the natural constraints and opportunities of its Susquehanna River location.
