The Old South is visually alive and well at River Plantation Country Club, complete with moss-covered oaks, magnolias, dogwoods and azaleas. Featuring three nine-hole layouts -- Augusta, Biloxi and Charleston -- all with Tiff Sport Bermuda tees and Tiff Eagle Bermuda greens, as well as Bermuda roughs. But don't let the look fool you: The full-service club also has modern amenities. River Plantation's short-game facilities have a separate area for approach shots, as well as a chipping green, sand bunker and practice green for putting.

Beautiful setting with potential

We paid $40 for a Saturday 10am tee time. The large pine trees make for a beautiful setting, but the greens are in horrible shape and there and many spots that looked like they haven't been mowed. There's lot of seniors with custom carts who help keep the club open, but once they move on, i imagine this place will shut down.

Friday golf

Although I like this course I won't be playing on Fridays in the future. We were a foursome, but we let 3 singles and 3 doubles play through. It's very frustrating to look back and see players waiting on you. It makes you tend to hurry and that screws up your game. When they have numerous players as they did on this Friday they should team all players to foursomes.

Fun course and layout

Fun course to play. Definitely will use all your clubs. A couple of the greens are bumpy, but overall great course for the price. Paired up with two guys and were a lot of fun to play with. Course is not very long and don't have to use driver much but with that comes its challenges. Looking forward to playing here again.

Nice course!

Greens were good, hope they're great on my next visit.

My complaint is that the bar only had corporate beer and no Houston craft beer!

Fun

Nice people good food. Pace of play can vary depending on skill level ahead of you. Course is tight and calls for all shots. Greens which are usually in good shape have a little damage. Fairway grass is a little thin. Both greens and fairways are mending and will be nice in a week or so

Good value.

Fairways were good. Traps were in need of repairs. Tees were bare but level. Good course for high handicappers. Generous approaches and wide driving areas on most holes. Grrens were hard and fast but putted true.

Don't waste your time or money

1. No food - having a staff meeting instead of serving customers

2. Early tee time, second group off, get to the back nine and we're the FOURTH group on the 3rd hole. These schmucks are sending groups off on both nines. You might as well spend $10 bucks and go play a nine hole course. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

course is getting worse

Unfriendly staff. They act like they don't want to be there. First cart I got into had a flat tire. Sixteen of the greens were in really bad shape. Bunkers have not been worked in weeks/months. This is a $20 course.
