Rivers Edge Golf Club

The course was great few greens were a little rough but as I understand winter was bad on the area. Other than those few greens the course was in great shape defiantly not for beginners.

Excellent course. Great value, especially if you get the Hot Deal. The staff was extremely friendly and great help. The carts are new with integrated GPS in them. I don’t mean a bushnell GPS strapped to the cart, I mean a GPS with a large screen built into the cart. It also plays slacker radio or you can hook up your phone via Bluetooth and play it through the speakers built into the cart. USB charging ports for your phone are also available.

We ran into two issues on the course. The entire course is in emasculate condition except for the greens of 17 and 9. Winter hit them pretty hard but from what I understand most golf courses in the area have more than 2 greens that are affected.

The other issue was pace of play. Not a single marshall there to keep pace so instead of waiting we skipped and went to the back nine and played that nine then came back and finished up the last three on the front. Able to finish in about 3 hours. Would have been 4-5 had we not skipped ahead.

All in all a great deal and a nice place to play golf.

Course is in great condition except for two greens, which are terrible from winter kill, and is a very excellent value when on hot deals. GPS added to cart in the past month offers some good info about course layout, but is annoying with needless messages. Course is not well marked.

Tough course. Good value. Greens showed stress from winter

River’s Edge is THE GEM in the Myrtle Beach area. The course design offers challenging golf for all levels of golfers. Every hole offers beautiful views and utilizes the terrain to make a great day of golf. GPS in the cart is state of the art. Visited the course in May and the conditions were fantastic. This course is a MUST PLAY! Club house & pro shop are top notch. Thanks ARNIE for making this gem community & golf experience available to enjoy.

1:57 tee time and no one in front or behind us. Played in 3.5 hours. Conditions excellent except for 9 and 17 greens which we we warned about. Finally parred #9 after about 5 doubles or worse. Love the layout.

An excellent course. Shot placement required. If he winds blowing don’t go for the 9th green, take the closest area on the right, save your score! Greens were slow, but rolled true. Fairways were tight, but green. Entire course well maintained. Play it if you’re in the area

I’m from the UK and was over here in September last year and it was a must play course. The condition then was great. I don’t know what’s happened since September but did read in the clubhouse that a renovation and tree removal programme was under way in March of this year. That didn’t cover the total loss of the green at the spectacular 9th. hole..I don’t know what happened there perhaps it was the unexpected snow in the winter that killed it off? Having travelled 4000 miles from the UK and the expectation of playing the course it was a great disappointment. That said I will return again in September and play those spectacular holes along the salt marshes. Pace of play is also an issue but then it’s a popular course but course marshals need to keep players on time and any groups that hold others should be told to,stand aside and let players that are quicker through. Sadly this is not only the case at Rivers Edge but through out Myrtle Beach courses. There seems to be scant regard for the pace of play etiquette and it is always poorly policed. Apparently it is always the people in front or a group two holes in front. Both the Usga and the R&A want to improve pace of play to encourage more people to play well they better not come to the Beach!

The staff at RE could not be more welcoming or helpful, (the burgers by the way were excellent and only 9.95 including a beer and chips! ) but that can never make up for a five hour round and a course in somewhat poor condition.

For the half backs that expect perfect conditions just know all will be well in a few weeks. We can only expect what Mother Nature gives....you seed and a Frost happens...it sucks. Give Myrtle a break. It’s treated you all so well over the years.

Second 18 of the day. Best played as 1st round when over 60.would play again.

I will be back to play this Arnold Palmer course once I improve my game. Very difficult and requires precise shot and club placement and selection. Incredible course as far as the physical setting and layout.

If this course was overseeded, they skimped on seed. It was mostly dormant Bermuda grass Its a shame because the course design deserves better. Probably a money issue.

The course was in excellent shape greens were plush and staff very friendly. I would certainly recommend this course as one I will play again.

Everything was very good, the greens were not at their best but playable.

Well maintained. Great layout with great greens. Staff was awesome from bag guys to course staff to clubhouse staff. Very reasonable prices in club house. Highly recommend if you visit the area. Not sure what we paid as it was part of a package

On the positive side, really liked the course layout and scenery. The course has a good variety of holes and scenery. Local knowledge is very helpful here. Definitely a fun, challenging course to play. On the down side, some of the greens definitely felt the effects of the harsh winter and were in bad shape. Hopefully as the weather warms, they will begin to fill in and green up. Would play again though.

It is a unique and challenging golf course and the vistas are breathtaking especially on the back nine. I rate this course as one of the best in the area. Would definitely play here again. Worth the drive!

Despite its difficulty, this course always is a pleasure to play! Love the back nine!
