Riverway Public Golf Course, carved from the Fraser River delta in Burnaby, is where generations of Vancouver golfers have cut their teeth. The course is not only a place to play, but a social center in Burnaby. This parkland course, originally designed in the mid-20th century, provides a mostly flat and walkable layout. Broad fairways encourage aggressive tee shots, though strategically placed bunkers and subtle green contours reward thoughtful approach play. Riverway is not overly penal, but scoring well demands attention to detail, especially on and around the greens. While Riverway hasn't hosted major championships, its consistent conditions and accessible layout make it a popular venue for regional amateur events. It remains a vital hub for the local golfing community, introducing newcomers to the game and providing a welcoming atmosphere for players of all skill levels. Known for its unpretentious atmosphere, Riverway embodies the everyman's golf experience, the type of place where you can actually make a tee time or find a game.
