This is a fun 9-hole course with enough challenges for beginner to intermediate golfers. You may find yourself waiting at the tee boxes a little longer than ideal but you should expect that from a fun public course. Some of the tee boxes were a bit rough but fairways and greens were fair to acceptable. Driving range and practice greens available. Great service and food at the cafe.

We had such a great time golfing the par 3 course! The scenic backdrop offers a great experience for a traveler wanting to take in a quick round. Took us about an hour to play. Rental clubs were nice and you could honestly walk the course out was so short, but in a good way! The staff was amazingly friendly and inviting! Thank you for an experience of a lifetime!

Loved this course. Some areas were under re-vegetation - but over all well maintained course. I enjoyed the range under the shade of mature trees.

Ah, Mick Riley Golf Course in Murray, Utah – talk about a blast from the past! Back in the 1990s, this place was my go-to spot, even though it was a bit rough around the edges. The fairways were patchy, the greens a bit unpredictable, and the lady at the snack bar? A legend in her own right. She’d grill up a mean hamburger, cigarette hanging from her lips like some sort of culinary daredevil. You’d get a burger with a side of second-hand smoke – now that’s vintage flavor!
Fast forward to today, and boy, was I in for a surprise. My son-in-law, bless his heart, invited me and my wife out for a round. I was half-expecting the same old run-down course, but wow, Mick Riley has had quite the makeover. The greens are lush, the fairways pristine, and not a cigarette in sight – unless you count the occasional golfer sneaking one behind a tree.
We teed off, and the nostalgia hit me hard, but so did the realization that this place is now a bona fide gem. The course is beautifully maintained, and the staff is super friendly. No more burger-smoke combos, but the new snack bar offerings are delicious and smoke-free – a win-win if you ask me.
So, if you’re looking for a great place to swing a club and maybe take a stroll down memory lane (minus the nicotine), Mick Riley Golf Course is the spot. It’s come a long way from the 90s, and it’s now a fantastic place to spend a sunny afternoon. Trust me, it’s worth the trip!

Managed to nab an early tee time as a single for Labor Day the night before. Signed up and paid in advance online. Could not have been easier. The staff in the clubhouse were friendly and got me where I needed to be right on time.
The course was in very good shape in my opinion. Greens looked good, as did the tee boxes. Pace of play was a little sluggish, but I'd expect that on a busy holiday morning. Still finished the regular nine in a decent amount of time. Will definitely come back for another round. The value for the price is excellent.
