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.

Enjoyable course

After reading mixed reviews on GolfNow and also on other sites, I ultimately decided to book a tee time. Spoke with the guy at the bag drop area, quite friendly and seemed very honest telling me a little history about the course and its current condition. Played as a single and only saw a few other people playing. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised of the course condition and definitely not as bad as some reviews had stated. Tee boxes were good shape and finding a level area to stand was easy. Fairways were in pretty good shape, traps had decent sand, and the majority of the greens were consistent in roll and condition, even though they seemed to have been aerated recently. All in all, I would definitely play RoseHill again upon returning to HHI area.

Reviving

Played a round on the recommendation of a fellow golfer. Enjoyed the round, but the course needs continued TLC. Greens were in good shape, bunkers acceptable. The Pro was out on the course asking players about the experience and talking a little about plans and efforts. All in all, I would go back.

Need to Schedule Groups more Efficiently

The clubhouse was great, delicious lunch, friendly people. The difficulty was in scheduling the tee times. We were a group of three, but before we even teed off, there was a twosome and even a single, waiting behind us. We allowed three different single golfers to play through, until we had enough. Our 9 hole time was quickly coming up on 2 1/2 hours just because of all the times we stopped to let others play through. The course was what you would typically expect for a resort area course, neither exceptional nor poor. Fair layout from both the center tees and the forward tees, no unusual or tricky spots. After the round, the cart guy told us that the nicer weather that afternoon prompted a lot of walk-ins and the club house just sent them out one at a time.

Rosehill review

Really enjoyed our first round at Rosehill. Greens were fast and fairways were decent. You do get punished if you hit into the rough. Bermuda grass is thick and you had to be on top of your ball to see it.

Overall, great value for the money. Would definitely play it again and recommend it to friends!

Very Solid

You can tell they have put a lot of work into the course over the past year. Marshall kept the pace of play to under 4 hours. Greens rolled perfectly. Couple of very small, patchy parts but you can tell the course is on the come up and not far at all from where they want to be. 9/10, would def recommend to anyone

Rose Hill Trending Up

Played 18 then returned day later to play. 18 first day and 9 second day. Played with my wife. Both days were perfect weather. Course has improved as previous reviews said course in poor shape. Greens very nice and fast. Course fairways still need work. New development team is working to make improvements. Looking forward to seeing it next year. Good value for $$.

Rose Hill

We played twice this week at Rose Hill. Greens are in very good condition. When you hit the green the ball stick. Had some half moon divots to fixed. The fairway in good condition also, very few spots. The course has came a long way since July 2023. The new management team is a keeper.
