Beautiful Layout
We had a great time playing this course. That's not the same as saying we played great on this course. You need to be on the short grass on this one. And it doesn't hurt to be pretty long. Fairways were in good shape, the rough kicked my butt and the greens were fast and true. Next time we are in the area, we will definitely play here again.
Thank you for your review, gswyrick. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at River Falls Plantation. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Fun track
Everything was satisfactory with the exception of the fairways were scalped really close so every shot was off of a very tight lie, otherwise it was good.

Much improved
Played this course last year and was a little disappointed with the conditions. Every aspect of the course is greatly improved, especially the greens. Shows some effort has been made and the experience was enjoyable.

River Falls
So they have really stepped up there game on their greens. This course is the best shape I’ve seen in years. Can’t beat it. Friday was very. Busy but pace of play was fine. Very little waiting on the T Box. And we where able to finish a full round in about 4 hours. I typically play at another course but I will definitely be. Back
