Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Double Bogey
The course was very difficult due to the conditions. Almost every tee shot plugged due to the poor drainage. If you choose to play there make sure it hasn’t rained in the past month.
Only made 9 hours cause starting pouring rain. Front 9 was nice layout and in good shape for February. Staff very friendly and gave us rain check for other 9 without any hesitation.
Played following heavy rain so cart path only (I am 80 )The starter paired me with a local who was very friendly and a good playing partner. Great layout that I look forward to playing again with drier conditions
Average course - Nothing special for the money
Course was OK. Conditions were not that great, Not a good value for the $38 I paid.
Just didn’t feel the course ambassador was a friendly person. The tone of voice was a little prejudice!
The course is nice...ish.
It's winter and just coming off a cold snap, so some folks are not showing up for their tee times. This leads to uneven groupings and pace of play. We as a three were constantly waiting on the three in front of us (who were waiting on the four in front of them). The three behind us were a bit eager and hit into us a couple of times, that could have turned ugly. Nearly a five hour round just doesn't cut it. Bunkers were often full of water.
Very different nines (Fox and Otter). Nice that they have flags to indicate what would otherwise be potentially blind water coming in to play on holes. Not a good enough course for what they are charging.
Course in great shape for December
Greens, tee boxes, and fairways were in great shape. Even the rough was on good shape. Played here before and will play again next time I am in Myrtle Beach.
Very Happy
Been in Myrtle Beach since 11/1. Have played about a dozen courses. All courses I have played costs from $45-$60. If I was to buy a membership, this would be it. Loved the layout! Being a shotmaker around the greens is a help. Not a draconian layout, but one a serious golfer will enjoy!
