Rose Hill Golf Club
About
Rose Hill Golf Club in Bluffton is situated amongst plentiful live oaks draped with Spanish moss. There are also sparkling, crystal-clear lakes that come into play on several holes. The golf course is a part of Rose Hill Plantation, giving it a truly Southern look and feel. Most of the holes are flat and straightforward but there are a few tricky doglegs to keep the course interesting. The layout features formidable par 3s that will test even the best players and a notably difficult par 5 that measures just over 600 yards. The challenging holes are balanced with player-friendly features that make it versatile enough for a wide range of skill levels. Four sets of tees, the longest coming to just over 6,900 yards, make Rose Hill Golf Club even more accessible.

Reasonable
Course was a little tough due to the time of year. They were spraying for crashgrass.
$70 for this?!
Unacceptable. There are so many other courses in Bluffton and on Hilton Head Island with much better quality at similar or cheaper prices. Go to Old South nearby, they care about the course and charge you less than this place. Greens were in terrible condition, fairways not much better, pace of play was slow and not maintained by rangers, and we were in a broken cart for half the round. I know this course has had some management trouble and has open and closed, but that is not an excuse for how poorly maintained this course is.
Thank you for reviewing the course. We would like to apologize for your recent experience.
We're sorry to hear you were less than satisfied during your round. We pride ourselves on our providing great service and the high-quality standards we maintain.
We would like to make things right. Please reach out to our management team at the pro shop.
We hope to hear from you soon.
Greens
Have played here numerous times. The greens were horrible for some reason. Maybe just it’s the time of year.
Thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing Rose Hill Golf Club.
Needs some TLC
Course is a decent layout, some nice holes, but needs some work. I know it’s not a good time of year, the green fees are not high, but the greens haven’t been cut, very few holes have a 150 yd markers. Anyway it was a round of golf and the pace of play was great.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Rose Hill Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Terrible course
Worse course in HH ever. No grass. Carts were sputtering and seats were cracked. I paid 80 dollars to hit off dirt.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve and are working diligently to improve the course. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences, Patrick6481133. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Rose Hill Golf Club!
1st time and last time
Like playing on concrete. Fairways and greens were hard as a rock. Greens were bumpy and fast like hitting on a blacktop highway.
Some may say it’s due to the time of year, however I’ve played 4 other local courses during my holiday, that were in great condition, so the excuse is mute.
If you value your clubs, avoid this course.
Thank you for taking the time to review and leave feedback on your recent round with us. We would like to apologize for any inconvenience you experienced. Your feedback is extremely important to us.

3 Rambling Golfers take on Rose Hill
It was an enjoyable day for 3 average golfers. Challenging course for the average golfer. Will likely play again in the future.
Tough Conditions During Winter
Played here a lot in 2019-2020. Now, in January, conditions are fair at best. No fairway grass, lots of mud, tees and traps rough. Greens not too bad. Looks like there was no pre-emergent application in the Fall. Weeds popping up everywhere. Course has lots of potential but is way overpriced.
Ok for the time of the year
Nice layout. Parts of it picturesque.
Lovely homes.
Course seems to have not received close attention. Poorly maintained.
Thank you for reviewing us, AileenRyan. We see you rated the course 3-stars and are interested in learning what we can do to improve before your next round. Feel free to comment on this review or reach out to the team in the golf shop. We always appreciate the feedback. Thank you for playing Rose Hill Golf Club, and we hope to see you again soon.
First time playing Rose Hill
Friendly staff let me out 45 minutes early since the tee was open. Played the white tees which were6400 yards. Nice routing of holes. Par three’s are long..Back 9 is quite challenging. Fairways are a little thin in grass creating some tight lies. Greens also thin in grass so greens were fast. Nice course and I will return to play it again.
Hi, obrienklm. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Rose Hill Golf Club.
Fun Challenge
The course is back to being a premier golf course in the Low Country.
We would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share your favorite part of your experience and what we can do to earn that last star! Thanks for golfing at Rose Hill Golf Club!
We love hearing about our golfers' experiences, Drake1722. Please tell us more about what you enjoyed during your round. Thanks for choosing Rose Hill Golf Club!
good job
Course is improving very well. Greens in very good condition and the tee boxes are growing in nicely. Keep up the good!!!
Okay but there are better
I've wanted to play here for awhile. Staff very sociable & friendly. Grass dormant.this time of year makes for "tight" lies. Grass around greens holds the ball from getting to the green if you hit short. Greens very quick. & in decent shape. Course layout not any different than anywhere else. It was an enjoyable day but I probably wouldn't ever go back.
