Greenville Country Club (Riverside)

Overview: Riverside is the older of Greenville Country Club’s two courses in Greenville, South Carolina. The private par-71 layout is identified by the club as its original Thomas Bendelow routing, set among mature club grounds near the Reedy River corridor. Its moderate length places emphasis on angles, green approaches, and the ability to recover from less-than-perfect positions.

History: Greenville Country Club dates to 1895 and now operates two 18-hole courses. The club’s own history distinguishes Riverside from Chanticleer, which has been redesigned by Beau Welling. Riverside remains the historic course identity in the ranking, with Bendelow’s original work providing the architectural starting point.

Did You Know? The Riverside name matters because Greenville Country Club is not a single-course facility. A ranking entry labeled Riverside refers to the older routing, while Chanticleer is the separate companion course on the same club property.
