Decent course
Course is wide open. Greens are very challenging. They are all in shape of turtle shells and small. Great value for money though
Visiting area
Thought the course was in good shape, friendly staff! We felt the fairways were too close together, at times there were several players in our fairway. Good value!
Clean course
Not a difficult course, pace of play was very good. Very clean course. Staff was friendly , my only dislike was multiple holes were next to each other so many times people were in your fairway... but overall great experience
Nice break from the casino
The course was in good condition. The greens were fast and rolled very true. The course is not overly difficult and very enjoyable to play
Enjoyable Experience
If you're down on the coast and want an enjoyable round for a reasonable price give this course a try. Played as a single and even though behind a foursome, still finished well under four hours.
Not a flatland course, does have some nice elevation changes. Tees, fairways in very. Ice shape. One click down for the greens. Apparently punched recently. Even so, they ran true.
Seniors, 55 and up, have a nice discount.
Definitely will play again.
This golf course had the worst greens I have ever played on. The grass clippings from the greens where just dumped all around the greens. Pay the extra $20 and go play the Grand Bear.
Old school
If you like old a school golf golf course this is it. Has the old dark club house with old fashioned burgers being grilled and friendly service . Course is in good shape , greens smooth. Has a city course type of back and forth layout but still fun. Recommend it.
Excellent Coarse
Staff are the most friendly and helpful fun loving bunch I have run into lately.
The day was hot our golfing not so.
Rough was as long as I have seen it in 6 months but if I would play the fairways I would have had no problems wit this beautiful coarse
Play this coarse and you'll go home content with whatever you score.
Nice course
Played at Sunkist the day after a torrential downpour in the Biloxi area. Although the course was very wet it was in good shape. The people there were very accommodating. I would definitely play here again and would also recommend to anyone. Thank you.
Sunkist Golf Course
I don't like spending money on a course that had aerated their greens, not sanded but punched their green. I think they should let you know before you pay for the tee time !!!!!!!
Nice golf course
The golf course is nice, and affordable, driving range and putting greens is good. Location is great being so close to my hotel in Biloxi MS. I will definitely play this course again on my next vacation, instead of hanging around at the casinos. Good golf course for any level either beginners or advance levels of golfers. Most importantly the staff at the Pro shop named, Zac was very helpful on explaining what's going on at the golf course. Starters were not grouchy....very professional.
