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.

Green in bad condition

Was told aeration was performed two weeks ago and greens had healed pretty good. What they failed to mention was the greens condition was bad which had nothing to do with the aeration process.

Massive improvement!!

The staff at Rose Hill are doing excellent work! The greens are vastly improved with on 15 that is real in need of TLC. The greens are far better now then other courses in the area. The best layout in the area and worth playing.

Good Value

My wife and I are high-handicappers who live on Hilton Head Island. We're always looking for a good value in order to play more golf. We've always liked Rose Hill because they offer lower rates with good availability. For a long time, Rose Hill has been plagued with some bad putting greens. At this point, it seems to me that most are OK, with only two or three really sub-standard. I'm not sure why they haven't fixed the worst one by now. On the other hand, the greenside bunkers are in better shape than some of the high priced courses in the area. We enjoy the course as a whole. It's comparable to other Bluffton courses. The lower price seems a reasonable exchange for a only a few substandard greens.

They have done a nice job upgrading the club house, now they need to spend some money on the course. The fairways were in bad shape and a few of the greens had bare patches on them.

People and staff were very friendly. Prices were very fair. It appears they are trying to improve the course. The green are pretty rough at most holes, but it does appear that they are trying to improve them. Played pretty much ready golf all day.

For the price, no complaints.

Nice layout, but????

The course layout was nice and played easily with open fairways and good landing areas. There were bunkers and water hazards to make things interesting on your approach. Fairways and rough were in average to above average condition, but the bunkers were hard and packed, and the greens were terrible. Grass was mostly dead or missing on the greens and they were sanded. The putts would not travel in a straight line at all. The greens may improve as the grass grows in during the summer, but we won't be here to see.

Terrible course condition!

This course was originally management by a company that did not take care of the course. Course management was taken over by another group so I had hope that they would fix up and bring the course back to good condition. However, the course remains in terrible condition. Many of the greens were dirt, no grass, and had patches of fungus. There was debris and broken branches all over the fairways. There was no sign of any maintenance people doing any routine clean up or course maintenance. Even though $40 for a round may be inexpensive, don't bother playing this course. Extremely poor condition. A major disappointment!

The course wasn’t crowded st all. The fairways were ok but the greens were burnt in many areas. They have spent a lot of money fixing up the clubhouse. I hope they begin to spend the money now fixing up the course.

disappointed

I was totally surprized how much the conditions had changed from a good course to a terrible course!

The greens were the worst condition I have ever played on, There was one green that looked like if should be considered playing out of the rough. Not one green when you putted that the ball didn't jump all the way to the cup. I will not play there again and they need to refund my money

Always like the layout...think staff needs to understand the greens aren’t going to “come back” with rain. Time to rope em off and sod, really guys what are you waiting for. The reviews aren’t going to get better
