Rose Hill Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Headed in the right direction
Still quite a few rough spots but course is definitely headed in the right direction. Greens are not bad, fairways a little patchy and tee boxes still need some love but pleased to see the effort being put in to get this course back in condition. Will definitely be back.
Impressed with Rose Hill Course
First time playing rose hill due to concerns over ratings but absolutely loved the course. Probably my favorite layout of the handful of courses I've played in the area. Course conditions were good considering tropical storm had come through within the week. Greens were slow but chalked that up to all the rain but almost all of them were in very good condition. Staff was friendly and pace of play was great. Didn't run over anybody or anyone catch us for a holiday. The only thing I would pick at would be the pro shop only had complimentary waters so had to wait until 11 for restaurant to open to get anything else but with the new management this may improve.
Overall I will return to play and would recommend anyone to give this course a chance.

Needed mowing
I know the rains, especially the tropical storm Idalia, made it impossible to mow for a few days, but that wasn't a surprise. They should've mowed in preparation. I exaggerate not--I've played courses with fairways better to putt on than the greens at Rose Hill.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the recent weather conditions, which affected our ability to maintain the course. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work towards improving our greens.

Had a GREAT time. Best Course For The Money.
We couldn't have had a much better time than we did today. The staff treated us as best buddies. The course is in very good condition and I've got to say I/we were very happy with the play of the greens. The layout makes it enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding. I was told the clubhouse will be reopening with in the week which is only going to make us come back because of reputation the restaurant has on Hilton Head Island. This course was rated one of the best in the Hilton Head area for a very good reason, Best Course For The Money.
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, kkuhnkxkmCHVGKlbQPNG! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Rose Hill Golf Club.
It's time to come back and give this course a try
WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT !!!
Months ago, I simply couldn't recommend this course. Now, I suggest you give it a try.
While it still is in need of more improvements, it has come a LONG, LONG way.
(From perhaps an "F"...to a C+.....and likely to be a B- when I play it next (they were aerating the greens).
If you played it much earlier this year, please take my advice and try it again. In its current condition, it is one of the better Value$ is the area..
And, I have no doubt.....withe their CONSTANT efforts.....it is going to be even BETTER when I review it next time.

Tried It Again
It was good to see several upgrades since last fall and with more attention to the fairways and greens this will be a fun course.
Crew was starting to cut the front fairways but the green were long and shaggy as were the back fairways and greens. Roughs were very long. Several greens have serious weed/grass problems.

Course Needs Work
As advised when paying, course under new management again, about third time in last five or six years. Course went downhill for awhile but improvements under way! Good luck with that and getting bar/restaurant open again. Pro shop staff friendly and shop well stocked. Will check progress next year when down visiting daughter and family.

A truly awesome experience
Is the course Masters ready? No (feels very much like a locals kind of course). BUT is the experience incredible? Absolutely. Friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered. They made us feel so welcome- pulled up right to the car to load our bags, gave us free bottles of cold water, joked around with us- really made the round easy and fun which was perfect.

Over the last month course has been in very good shape. Many improvements in conditions. Enjoyed the last few rounds.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're glad to hear that you have noticed the improvements in the course conditions over the past month and that you have enjoyed your recent rounds. We appreciate your feedback and support.
It's getting there
I'd like to echo what some others have been saying, it's clear that they are putting the work and money into this course to make it better and turn it around. The last couple of years have been BRUTAL, the course had been in a state of disrepair. It's got a way to go, but I can definitely give them a lot of respect for the ground that has been made so far in their attempt, it goes a long way.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We sincerely apologize for any negative experiences you may have had in the past, but we appreciate your recognition of the efforts we have made to improve the course. We will continue working hard to make further progress and provide a better experience for our customers.
Good course at a fair price.
Although many of the reviews were not great I felt for the money this course wasn’t all that bad. It has it condition issues but you can tell work is going into it to improve it. So take that into consideration and give it a try. The staff we dealt with were extremely friendly and pleasant to chat with.
