Rating 72.9

River Oaks Golf Club stretches across more than 800 scenic acres along the Intracoastal Waterway. The Course begins with the shortest of the three nines and finishes with the longest. The final hole on the front nine presents one of the most interesting risk-reward opportunities on the golf course. You can aim for the right bunker for an open shot at the green or try a long drive down the left side for a short approach. River Oaks Golf Clubs' Otter nine has several challenges in store including mounding, strategically placed bunkers, and tricky water hazards.

Great course for the money

Course was in great shape. Enjoyed the little challenges the course offers. Still able to recover & score even if you hit a bad shot. Going to be a staple course for us when we are in Myrtle Beach.

Lousy greens

Layout is decent but the greens are terrible. Huge dead spots on all of them. Sand traps are also in terrible shape and many are unplayable.

Dying greens

This looks like it used to be a good course but they are not maintaining it and the greens are very poor. Many have large dead spots you need to move the ball off of to a better place. The sand traps are also in terrible shape and many are unplayable.
