Let me preface this review by saying the RiverTowne staff are incredibly friendly and go above and beyond for their patrons. The facility itself (pro shop, restaurant, bathrooms, etc.) is very well maintained and clean. Additionally, there has been little to no rain in Charleston over the past three weeks.

As for the course itself, I am providing a rating of 3 stars which I feel is very generous given the current conditions. The fairways consist of predominately scorched grass that borderlines on dirt with random (small) patches of green grass. It is rare that you are able to play your ball as it lies due to inconsistent grass/dirt ratios. It appears their watering is very inconsistent as there are spots on the fairway that are over-saturated to the point of being mud. As for the greens, the majority of them do have small fungus spots, but do roll fast and true.

In short, please increase the quality of the course or lower the rate ($91.18) to match the conditions.

Played back to back days. Greens are in top shape, but fairway is dirt with little grass on most holes. Needs extensive renovations. Greens are the only way to justify the price
