River Hills Golf and Country Club is in Little River, near North Myrtle Beach, a Tom Jackson product that shows heavily-wooded, rolling terrain with elevation changes as much as 40 feet. Golfers won't encounter parallel fairways, but they will encounter fairways that weave through a series of homes, along with dogwood, maple, live oak, pine and cypress tees. They will also see quite a bit of water, though most of it is lateral.

Pleasant Surprise!

Had a great time at River Hills over Thanksgiving weekend. Sometimes it's hard to get a good read on these courses by reviews, especially in terms of course character. The greens were in great shape, but more importantly for me, the course was very interesting and visually appealing. It was anything but ho-hum golf and it really made you work through your bag, which I love. Great track!

Excellent conditions, very challenging!

Course conditions are much improved since the last time I played it about 2 years ago. Water everywhere and must be played with a strategic mindset. Whatever tees you think you should play, I recommend moving up a set.

Nice to come back

Had not played since 2017, really like that each hole is so unique and different, played as a twosome so pace was slow for us but on time for course. Greens were great. just very difficult to read and for speed. course in great shape. Marshall named Tom was so courteous and chatted much with us while we waited on some shots. Would highly recommend course.

Beautiful course!

Loved the round. The course plays out well, lots of interesting and challenging holes, undulating fairways, many lined with larger beautiful homes. An upscale golf community.

Everything was great. Wish they had a drink cart but understandable since there weren’t a whole lot of people on the course after the hurricane
