River Oaks Golf Plantation is a 27-hole facility spanning over three unique courses: The Bear, The Fox, and The Otter. The facility sits atop what was once a nature preserve and is located just a few short minutes from the great downtown of Myrtle Beach. It is close to some of the great attractions of the area, including Freestyle Music Park and Broadway at the Beach – just minutes away.
The signs of the nature preserve are evident, as you will find much wildlife while enjoying their courses. They feature well-kept Champion UltraDwarf greens and fairways lined by beautiful, sweeping trees.
The course invites golfers of all skill levels to come and try out their facility, as they are ready to serve all with a sense of Southern Hospitality.
