Course Highlights
Rose Hill's staff consistently earns high praise for their warmth and genuine engagement with players on and off the course. The thoughtfully designed layout offers solid variety and delivers strong value for the experience.

Length 6961 yards
Slope 139
Rating 73.5

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.

Back 9 a mess

They should not have had the back 9 open for play. It’s a mess. Front 9 ok, but I’d say it’s overpriced for the condition the course is in right now.

NOT AGAIN

I HAVE PLAYED A NUMBER OF OTHER COURSES IN HILTON HEAD OVER THE LAST TWO MONTHS AND THIS WAS BY FAR IN THE WORST SHAPE OF THEM ALL. I UNDERSTAND THE BERMUDA HAS NOT REALLY TAKEN HOLD YET BUT THE COURSE HAD WATER IN EVERY BUNKER, NEEDED THE BLOWERS OUT, AND THE PRICE IS NOT CLOSE TO BEING RIGHT. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND PLAYING TO ANYONE. NOT AGAIN FOR ME EITHER.

Rose Hill

Over all the course was in good shape for the time of the year. The tee boxes were a little bare as there was some water in the traps, but considering we had tornadoes watch and heavy rains the night before It didn’t bother me.

The pace was fine we didn’t have anyone breathing down our necks and we weren’t waiting on anyone in front of us.

Disappointing

I was really excited about playing Rose Hill this year. Had heard new ownership/Mgmt had taken over. The greens were in decent shape. The starter told us on the first tee that the course was in really good shape. He should probably play it. The fairways and tee boxes had more dirt than grass to hit from. There was zero sand in the bunkers, nor was there a rake with any trap. It was a really good value when it was $28-35 a round not that many years ago. Not so much this time around. I was told they gave a great 3 month deal to walkers. That's probably why the course was playing slower than I remember since playing first playing here in the early 80's. Overall, it was a real disappointment.

Work in Progress

They are clearly investing the money necessary to upgrade this course -Kudos! However in the meantime the fees charged seem out of line with current course conditions. Tee boxes are in very poor shape-and most of the fairway “turf” is extremely thin. Traps are horrible! Greens were actually the best part of playing surface. They were in good shape.

I'd play again but would bring my own beer

Played back 9 first. Cart path only on only 3 holes. Front 9 cart path only due to so much rain, thus fairways showed it. That part of course will improve. No beverage cart at all. Too bad; they're missing out on revenue. I would definitely have purchased at least 1 beer per 9, if not more as it was a nice warm day. For the first time in my golfing experience, I lost a ball to the "wildlife." I was not going near it! Photo attached.
