The River Club golf course in Pawleys Island, located just south of Myrtle Beach, is one of the top-rated layouts and one of the most beautiful settings on the Grand Strand.

This Tom Jackson signature course carries a 4.5-star rating by Golf Digest, which named the River Club one of the "Top Places to Play" since 2006. It is one of the elite plantation courses in the South and remains a favorite among returning golfers and newcomers alike.

As part of the prestigious Waccamaw Golf Trail, the River Club is nestled in a Lowcountry environment consisting of swampland, maritime forests and wetlands with more than 100 sand traps and bunkers filling the course.

The par-5 18th is one of the top finishing holes on the Grand Strand, presenting golfers with one of several risk/reward opportunities. Kids always play free with a paid adult and discounts are available for those who package with Litchfield Country Club and/or Willbrook Plantation.
