(City of Pocatello Press Release, April 7, 2026)
The City is excited to announce construction is underway for the new Connections Credit Union Clubhouse, marking a significant investment in the future of Riverside Golf Course and the local golfing community. The clubhouse is being made possible in part through a generous donation from Connections Credit Union. A groundbreaking ceremony will be announced at a later date.
The new two-story clubhouse will be approximately 3,700 square feet and will include cart storage in the basement level, a golf simulator, restaurant, pro shop, and 1600 square feet of patio space for guests to enjoy.
“This is an exciting step forward for Riverside Golf Course,” said Anne Butler, Parks & Recreation Director. “We’re thrilled to see this project move into the construction phase and look forward to providing an updated clubhouse that will better serve golfers and visitors for years to come. We’re especially grateful to Connections Credit Union for helping make this vision a reality.”
Construction Services, Inc. will serve as the construction manager, with Booth Architecture leading the clubhouse design. Work will continue throughout the summer, with the project expected to be completed in time for the 2027 golf season.
During construction, a temporary parking map will be provided to guide golfers and visitors to designated parking areas. Golf cart trailers will not be permitted in the main construction parking lot. Additional areas have been marked for trailer parking to help accommodate users during the construction period. Visitors are encouraged to arrive early for their tee time and be respectful of the surrounding residential areas. Drivers should also use extra caution along Bannock Highway during construction.
Pocatello Parks & Recreation appreciates the community’s patience and support and will continue to share updates as the project progresses. For more information, please contact Pocatello Parks & Recreation at 208-234-6232.
