Paul Hammer Taylors, SC Visitor More than 10 visits Reviewed 01/09/2012 | River Bend is a great place to enjoy a day. Ralph is an accommodating and gracious host and the River Bend staff are always helpful and very nice. The targets are usually challenging, and the course is well maintained. I go shoot and spend time at this beautiful facility as often as I can. |
Scott Chatten Morris, IL Visitor Once Reviewed 11/21/2010 | Great place. The lodge is top notch and the course was very nice. The remote control on the throwers made if very easy and enjoyable. The food was very good. The lodge would be a perfect place for a corporate retreat. Pool table, poker table, big screen TV, and a great fireplace. If you are looking for a place to get away and have fun this is on top of my list. |
FS Thomas Charlotte, NC Visitor 6-10 Visits Reviewed 10/25/2010 | River Bend is a superb, upscale sporting clays facility. I've been to many clays courses across the NC/SC region and this is one of the best. It's managed extremely well, with an attentive staff, a beautiful lodge of the type you would expect to find in Montana and a great Southern lunch when in season. They also have a well stocked pro shop with just about anything you need.
The clays course is extensive and challenging and has electronic-operated throwers with remote controls. This is nice for taking extra birds (the remotes keep track of them) and avoids the hassle of having a person tag along to manually operate the machines. In addition to the clays course, there is a dedicated skeet field and a covered five-stand course (which comes in handy in inclement weather).
I've attended two corporate retreats at this facility and both went over very well. It's probably one of the few clays courses in the region that can also accommodate a large party very easily.
The only downside is the cost. River Bend is quite expensive compared to other clays courses in the region but, as with a lot of things in life, you get what you pay for. That's certainly the case with this facility. Bottom line, it is worth the drive. Given the distance to Charlotte (about 1.3 hours each way), I don't often get down there. But when I do, I always have to remind myself that it was well worth the wait. |

The course offered a variety of shooting situations that varied from simple to complex.
Gun rentals and ammunition are avilable at the lodge.
Staff was great and lunch can be arranged for groups. Our lunch consisted of grilled pork chops, grilled chicken, mashed taters, green beans, lima beans, pecan pie, lemon pie, coffee and tea. |
