Great Course

First time at the River Club. The course was fun and challenging, with plenty of water and well placed bunkers to navigate. There is no range at this course which is why I rated the ammo irises low and they are without a clubhouse restaurant. The greens were a little rough around the collar on a few holes and were recently sanded which is why I rated overall condition a 4. The fairways, tee boxes and bunkers were very well kept. The staff was friendly and getting started was easy. I wish they had a range to practice mostly, but I hope to make it back here and recommend d this course.

OK

Course was ok! Lots of water and sand. There was no one on the course. Kind of unusual for this time of year. Carts were very temperamental.

I don’t think I think I would go back. Lots of other courses to try!

Average course

Straight forward course.. Not a lot of challenge. Greens still healing from aeration. Probably needs to more weeks. No driving range.

Still My All-Time Favorite

I have been playing the River Club for almost 40 years--will always be my favorite course in the Pawleys Island area. Course is in excellent shape; thanks to the staff for another great experience. See you next summer! JB -- Satellite Beach, FL

Enjoyable Round

Good early morning round using Primetimes Card while in Myrtle Beach. 1st off and caught the last group on the morning wave on the 2nd 9, but still completed under 4 hrs. Course was very enjoyable. Winter overseed just starting to kick in. They are taking very good care of this course. Nice grouping with Willbrook and Tradtions. Worth the drive down to LItchfield to play. Starter and Proshop folks were very customer focused.

Water and sand

River club is one of those courses you never tire. Water and bunkers abound with a few holes to boost your ego.

Rude greeter

Enjoyed playing the course as conditions were very good and the grill room and starter were great. Would have been a perfect afternoon of golf if it wasn't tainted by a very rude greeter. We were the last group in the afternoon and, at the end of the round, the same guy followed us to our car as we were unloading the bags and personal belongings from the golf cart into our car and he asked if we were done and I said no. He simply ignored that and started moving our personal belongings while still in the cart in order to bring the cart back so he could leave. Not the way to treat your guests. Find a new greeter River Club!!!!
