RiverTowne Country Club

East of the Cooper River in one of the best places to live in Charleston SC, you will find RiverTowne Country Club and RiverTowne, two charming established neighborhoods located side by side on the Wando River. Developed by Centex Homes in the late 1990’s, RiverTowne Country Club is spread across 180 acres. The centerpiece of the country club in Charleston SC is the area's only 18 hole Arnold Palmer Signature Golf Course. In 2011, the golf course was voted one of the best public courses you can play in South Carolina adding to their three achievement awards.

RiverTowne's beautifully maintained course meanders in between lakes, the Wando River and homes overlooking the golf course. Thirteen of the golf holes are waterfront holes along the Horlbeck Creek and Wando River. Completed in 2003, the plantation-style clubhouse overlooks the club’s outdoor swimming pool and tennis courts. Dining options at the club include casual lunches and more formal dinners. Membership to the club includes reciprocal privileges at many South Carolina golf communities and eleven Affiniti Golf Clubs such as The Georgia Club, Chestatee Golf Club and Echelon. Property owners are not required to join the golf club.
