Rivers Edge - North Carolina - USA

Palmer design with several holes beside and sticking into the marsh. Bulkhead greens on several holes call for accuracy with the irons.

Played on August 9th 08 and was extremely dissapointed. After being assured by the staff the couse was in great condition, we found the greens were terrible and were barely playable. This is afantastic layout with some spectacular holes but overall the condiion and the unhelpful staff ruined the day.

Played Rivers Edge 10 March 2008. It was the fortieth course I've played in the Myrtle Beach area and is one of my top 5 favorites. The holes along the Shallotte River and tidal Marsh are beautiful and challenging. The inland holes add variety. The signature hole is #9, a par 5 that requires a good tee shot and then challenges you to bite off as much as you can on your second shot across the Marshalnd to a narrow of fairway jutting out toward the River.

This course is a must play if you are visiting the Brunswick County or Myrtle Beach area. It has got everything you will want in a golf course. Challenge, scenery, atmosphere and the best set of par 5s I have ever played. Each hole is different and it is a joy to play there. It is a 45 minute drive from Myrtle Beach but you will not be sorry for making it....ask any MB regular for a top 5 course and Rivers Edge will be in there.

I have played Rivers Edge on 2 trips to North Carolina and will be going back for more! This is a great course which you can just roll up and play on a day rate, it is a classic Arnold Palmer design with many tee shots over water or approach shots to greens over water, it follows the bluffs of the Charlott river and you get a real feel of Carolina golf from this course. It is about 90 mins drive from Myrtle Beach but is well worth the effort, the signature hole 9th is a great par 5 with either a lay up second or a 220 yrd carry over the water to a small green. If you are in South Carolina for a golf break take this one in you will not be dissapointed.
