Rivers Edge Golf Club is across the Carolina border in Shallotte, N.C., but it is well worth the 30-minute drive north of Myrtle Beach. Arnold took a superb piece of land and built a superb golf course. Seven holes are on the Shallotte river and are very scenic with marsh grasses. This 4.5 star course is stunningly panoramic with dramatic elevation changes from bluffs to low lying marsh areas.

Slow group ahead of us slowed us down more than 30 minutes. This impacted the enjoyment and the remainder of our day with time crunches. Not acceptable for a course this nice.

Love this challenging layout. You use every club in the bag. Staff was rooting for me on my birdie try on Arnie’s Revenge but just lipped out.

I had played once before here and love the layout. The layout is an outstanding test of Arnold Palmer designed target golf, which I like, but is very challenging. The fairways, grounds, and paths were in excellent shape. The greens were in above average condition but rolling too slow. The staff and facilities were top notch!

One of my favorite but toughest courses I’ve played. Never gets any easier but it challenges to make good golf shots
