Rose Hill Golf Club in Bluffton is situated amongst plentiful live oaks draped with Spanish moss. There are also sparkling, crystal-clear lakes that come into play on several holes. The golf course is a part of Rose Hill Plantation, giving it a truly Southern look and feel. Most of the holes are flat and straightforward but there are a few tricky doglegs to keep the course interesting. The layout features formidable par 3s that will test even the best players and a notably difficult par 5 that measures just over 600 yards. The challenging holes are balanced with player-friendly features that make it versatile enough for a wide range of skill levels. Four sets of tees, the longest coming to just over 6,900 yards, make Rose Hill Golf Club even more accessible.

Fun layout, would play again

Played Rose Hill for the first time March 4, 2023. Pace of play was great. Enjoyed the layout, tight but fair, lots of tree lined fairways and water hazards. Bunkers and fairways in great shape. Some tee positions were a bit worn. Greens were good except where there were bare spots. Great value overall. I will play it again soon.

Staff or ownership changes. Be careful

Should of known when there was no water or cups or ice. The front nine is a mole factory. Greens have not be cared for. Cart guy told me the ground keeper was let go. Stay away until they get this course under control.

Could be a great course is maintained properly

Ok, I don’t want to be mean but I will be honest. The staff checking in was very nice and friendly so that was a positive. Now on to the course. This layout has the makings of a great course, unfortunately the greens might be the worst I have ever encountered , every green was in decay on some part, the tee boxes were similar. I was very disappointed on the conditions seeing that this course design and layout has GREAT potential. They told us that the course had been bought and was under a redesign so I hope that is the case. Let’s hope they get it moved in the right direction, it could be a gold mine if they get the right superintendent to fix it

We hear they are under new ownership and they have some real work to do. Front 9 was in laughable shape! Back 9 was much better but still in desperate need.

Spring conditions

We are down from Maine and got what we expected. The grass is starting to grow again and the staff was out working removing the pine cones. The layout was great. A few of the residents were walking the course for excercise and the way I hit the ball, they should have been wearing hard hats, lol. My wife and I enjoyed our first round since October.

Cart only on front nine put a damper on round.

Because of 2 days of rain front nine was cart path only. Greens were not in good shape with mold and dead grass. I like the layout of the course. Cart paths need work. Overall I expected better course conditions.

Terrible Course

There was NO grass on the tees, fairways or greens. All tee shots and fairway shots were off mud. The greens were PAINTED green, very little grass. There was long tufted grass on the greens, no smooth rolling putts. Unbelievable. This place needs new management and put significant money into the course.
This place needs to close, Every green fee is robbery. We have played mini putt courses in better shape.

Soggy conditions, spotty greens

Played on a sunny, warm day and there had been no rain for several days prior, yet the front 9 and parts of the back 9 were soggy. When I say soggy, it was wet and marshy in some places. A 90 degree cart rule was in effect, stay on the cart paths. Balls and clubs were always muddy. Some of the tees had zero grass, and were also soggy. I can only assume they are aggressively watering at night.

The course has a nice layout but it was disappointing to constantly be wiping mud from the ball.

Terrible Course Condition

We have played Rose Hill before and looked forward to playing it again. Unfortunately, we found the course to be in deplorable condition. The tee-boxes were totally distressed, there was a fair amount of standing water in the fairways and bunkers even though it hadn't rained in several days, and the greens had very little grass. The pace of play was great because there was hardly anyone playing and the bar/restaurant was closed. The staff in the pro shop and bag drop was very nice and polite though.
