Hello, thank you for visiting us at River Falls Plantation. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Great course
Layout is interesting and challenging enough to keep you engaged. Course is in great shape minus a few areas (nothing major, just common stuff with public courses). The hazard areas could use some clearing/thinning. Staff is very friendly, range in great shape (heavily used), bar staff is friendly. The only drawback is a limited selection of drinks/food at the bar afterwards.

Members and Staff are Terrible
The people who play here are the most arrogant, overrated golfers I’ve ever met. Most of the time the staff is rude! Bar staff is amazing and more than friendly.

Great course
Really fun course. Challenging, but fun layouts. Very spread out though, expect your round to take awhile as many of the holes are far from each other.
Thank you for your review. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at River Falls Plantation. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Great course with nice staff!
Fairways and tee boxes in good shape. Greens mostly in great shape but a bit slow. Some fungus damage. Carts are touchy with gas pedal. Still one of my favs in the upstate!

Good track
This is always a good track. I do like the setup of this course. There are a few holes out here that really need some attention. I’ve visited a few times and they need some help each time I’ve been here. All in all this place is so nice. It’s a challenge with great payoffs. Great value with a great time each time I’m here.
