Amazing golf course. Target golf for sure. Food at clubhouse is fantastic and the staff are great read more

My second favorite golf club worldwide. I played this course during Round 1 of the Golf Tournament. I ran back over to Rivers End as soon as our tournament was over. The pace was so good that I wish I had paid for 18 instead of 9. I played with some really cool guys. One of them lives on the course. Arnie's Revenge beat me again. I played much better today than I did on Tuesday. This is definitely a course you'd like to check out. read more

Stunning beautiful course , one of the best Arnold Palmer's layouts, great pricing fair to good conditions most of the time !

Just go! As nice as any course 45 min South in N Myrtle. Clubhouse overlooks the river and greens. Good lunch specials and course plays fun.

Just played the course on Sunday. The greens & tee boxes were in HORRIBLE shape. Greens were inconsistently cut, diseased and chewed up. The tee boxes had little to no grass and just sand spread. The fairway had crab grass and the rough was inconsistent. Used to like the course a lot but they have a new superintendent and he must not be any good. Too bad - the views are great. read more

Wow. So many shots that ended up on dead grass. So burnt out in areas. The greens were so rough and bumpy. Quite a few holes with blind tee shots. It is a challenging course just wish it was in better shape. read more

Love the layout but a 5 hour round is ridiculous . Two groups on half of the tee boxes plus I had to wait for a golf cart. They should have more carts available. read more

Great layout. However, midweek was very crowded and slow play. No marshall to be seen. 5 hour plus round. Indifferent staff.

Love the course. But Sue, the clubhouse attendant, is rude and nasty . Won't play there ever again.

Excellent upgrades in asphalt and cement work throughout the course. Friendly helpful staff with significant upgrades on course maintenance in bunkers, fairways and waste areas. Have played annually and very impressed with dollars put into the place over last couple of years. Unfortunately currently there is some issue with old cup sites on the greens. You should not see the last 20-30 cup sites and they all have 180degrees of the circumference of the old cup with about 3/8 of an inch of dead grass around it. I am no agronomist but there must be something fixable regarding grain or height of mower or height of replacement plug that is impacting the old cup sites. Will definitely be back but hopefully to better greens. They had been verticut about a week before but that is necessary and will be taken care of by the passage of another week or two. read more

It was a bug infestation for all 36 holes. There are marshlands and swamps throughout the entire course. Needless to say, very shoddy around the greens in the sand traps were atrocious. I recommend you go to another golf course immediately. read more

the course was is very good condition for the lack of rain in the area. fairways were clear of weeds and greens rolled true. the staff were nice and helpful. great views of the marsh read more

A great course with visual hazards A fun course and usually in terrific shape. The service was exceptional and the staff very friendly read more

I swear, Arnold Palmer loves to torment golfers. He loves creating unique challenging courses with high risk and high reward. The par 5 hole 9 is absolutely brutal. The green is so narrow that you'd be crazy to even attempt going at it in two. Heck, the second shot to safety is even a bit tricky. I still had a great day, and the course was scenic and beautiful. Would love a second crack at this course. read more

This golf course is not for hackers. Lots of great holes that require accuracy off the tee. If you are not sure about the landing area, play to the 150 yds mark to avoid trouble. Play in the fist week of December and the greens just got sanded heavily. They are slow and bumpy. Will definitely be back to play this course again! Customer service is second to none. read more

See all

Nice course. But if your a average hacker like me, it can be very difficult. I prefer my fairways much more open. The 9th hole is ridiculous. Even for a good golfer. Called Arnold Palmers revenge. What was he so mad about? LOL One of the hardest holes I have ever seen. read more

This is fantastic Golf Course. The lay out is beautiful. Great golf holes. Course management on this course and you should do well. The brand new greens are fabulous. It's a fun course and each hole will keep your head in the game. The staff was very friendly and helpful. A must play. read more

Great golf course, but you definitely need to play it more than once. There are some holes that seem like driver holes, but they aren't. My only complaint was the pace of play. 5 hours is too long. After moving pretty quickly the first few holes, we hit a wall that lasted the rest of the day. No one at the club seemed the least bit concerned. On a positive note, the cilantro chicken salad in the grill room is phenomenal! read more

Please don't go here!!! The course is in poor condition, the golf course staff was rude and unresponsive to our concerns, and the inbreed golf pro had zero explanation for our terrible experience. read more

If you like beautiful views from the tee box and fairways, this is your course. But the white tees, which are what is recommended, take driver (and even 4 iron) out of a decent golfer's hands on at least 5-6 holes. And yes, the 9th hole is ridiculous. But mostly, I was disappointed that the starter, ranger, whoever didn't tell us that the second par 3 on the back nine (I think #15) had a driving range mat for a tee box. I can understand that maybe the course gets a lot of play or they had a problem with keeping grass growing, but for $100 for 18 holes, they should at least inform you of that. Again, nice views but I wouldn't go back for that price. read more

Very interesting layout overall. The holes along the river are great fun. A good course guide would be very helpful for those who haven't played here before, as there are a few hidden hazards. The greens were recently aerated, but have come back quite nicely. Fairways were in very good condition. Most of the tee areas were good, but there were a couple that need some work (#15 in particular). The staff were very helpful. We will definitely come back. read more

Had great round at this gorgeous course on the river, even though I choked! At recommendation from breakfast waitress from another course, we tried the Reubens. Oh hell yeah! Connie, you rocked it! read more

Arnold Palmer and his team of engineers build golf courses that challenge every part of a golfers game. Rivers Edge is a perfect example of this fact. The staff are among the most hospitable you will come across. As you would expect, conditions are pristine. This is the most demanding golf course I have ever played. Nerves of steel, and the focus of a champion are required to shoot a low score on this track. Difficulty being considered, this is an astonishingly beautiful course. Built on the Shallotte River, which is environmentally protected land, offers an 18 hole sight seeing adventure. But beauty is deceiving! She lures you in and then she strikes. Hole number nine has to be the coolest signature hole I've ever seen. You stand on the tee box with your heart pounding! The fairway is rather large but impending danger is all around. If you make the fairway, congratulations, the challenge will now begin. Your second shot will be over the marsh on to a narrow dog leg fairway. Club selection is key! No matter what your instincts tell you, hit your second shot at the fairway bunker. This is the largest portion of the fairway. The peninsula fairway and green are way to narrow for heroics. This course is so much fun and hole nine will surely have you addicted. I sat having a post round beverage wishing for another go at this Beautiful, dangerous, breathtaking, and extremely fun Palmer course. read more
