Great french bread and bacon. Service was awesome. Never waited on a thing

Lame. Overwhelmed by the prices and underwhelmed by the portions. Priced to keep the riff raff out?

My husband and I played The Preserve on Friday, October 11, 2019 and was warmly greeted with a smile from Skip and Ron. The preserve is a beautiful course and our favorite on the Coast. Upon completion of our round, I realized I had lost a ring somewhere around our car as we were loading the clubs onto the cart or near the practice range. Just a few minutes after I discovered I had lost the ring, Ron drove up to help get our clubs into our vehicle and inquired about our round. I told him it was wonderful except I had lost a ring. He said the ring was no longer lost because he had found it near the practice range and it was in the pro shop. The service at the course is always excellent but Ron’s friendliness and honesty was top notch. Please convey our gratefulness to Ron and our thanks to Skip for our wonderful, warm experience there.

I have played golf all over the United States and this ranks in my Top 2 overall golf experiences. Everything was 1st class from the moment we arrived at the bag drop. The staff was attentive and there were many of them to handle anything you might need. We were given a great overview of the facilities by the Club Pro. We were met on the driving range by an attendant who took us to Hole No. 1 and gave us a course overview and answered all out questions. There were coolers with bottled water on several holes which was much needed in the hot and humid June weather. The course was in pristine conditions and the greens rolled true and like lightening. If you are ever in the area The Preserve is a "Must Play." This ranks as my number 2 golf experience of all time. Number 1 was a private club in Tampa, FL. with caddies.

Got a great deal through the casino; played just before the seasonal green fee increase. Course was in Excellent condition. Masters like greens. Nice warm up area close to the club house. Excellent service by the staff - top notch. Hope to return. One of the nicest course I have played. We played after a couple of weeks of heavy rain; course still played great. The clouds part for us, and we had two wonderful rounds. I really like the tee time spacing here - never saw another group. No waiting, never pushed. Perfect! I really hope to return...

Played this week at the Preserve. I heard it was nice. I've played many nice courses, Farm Links, TPC Sugarloaf, TPC Las Vegas RTJ. This course fits right in there. It's April 2 and greens and fairways were perfect. Greens were slick, don't be above the hole. Pay attention to your GPS monitor of the hole. There are surprises. Staff extremely nice. Great experience. The course is long, play your correct tees. Whites were around 6300. No. 3 plays a little longer to the hole. Ball will spin back into the water.

Several words have been used to describe The Preserve Golf Club, located near Biloxi, on Mississippi’s Gulf Coast. Words such as spectacular, unbelievable and nature’s walk. Having played the course recently, I believe these are all appropriate, maybe even understating what the Preserve has to offer. Industry magazines such as Golfweek and Golf Digest have certainly taken notice over the years, lauding such praise upon The Preserve as Best New Course in 2007 and 2008 and Best Courses You Can Play in 2012 and 2013. Golfweek consistently ranks The Preserve the #2 golf course in the state. The Preserve Golf Club is a proud member of Audubon International and officially received their Certified Silver Audubon International Signature Sanctuary designation in May 2007. They are one of only 21 golf facilities in the world to receive this prestigious designation. The staff at the Preserve is dedicated to helping protect the natural environment while maintaining the pristine conditions of the golf course. The Preserve was designed by U.S. Open Champion Jerry Pate. It’s 18 holes of amazing golf that plays to a par of 71. From the back tees, the course stretches out to 6,774 yards with a course rating of 72.8 and a slope of 136. Most men will find the White tees at 6,260 yards (70.1/130) to be as much golf as they can handle, and still leave with a modicum of dignity. Ladies will find the Preserve a delight from the Red tees (4,843/67.8/120). There are a total of five sets of tees to make golf enjoyable, no matter your skill level. The Preserve Golf Club offers a something special for every level of golfer and is one of the best maintained courses in the state. It’s the natural aesthetics of the course and surrounding area that make it truly remarkable. The 1,800-acre preserve that borders this 245-acre course produces a wide variety of native plants that are indigenous to the area and can be seen throughout the course. Tall, slender longleaf pine trees line many of the fairways and stately majestic oaks stretch their limbs into play on several holes. From your tee shot on Number 1 through your last putt on the 18th green, you’re sure to create several lasting memories regardless of your score. Your arrival at the course triggers a chain of events that showcase The Preserve’s Southern hospitality. A host greets you at the bag drop area, take your clubs and guide you into the Southern manor-like clubhouse. Check in and confirm your tee time in the pro shop and while you’re there check out the huge selection of logoed golf gear from top name manufacturers. Leave plenty of time before or after your round to grab a bite to eat at the Sweetbay Restaurant. Sweetbay serves delicious breakfast items, appetizers, salads, sandwiches and daily specials along with all of your favorite libations and brews from their full-service bar. Favorites here include the Sweetbay Kobe Burger and Smoked Brisket Sandwich. Once you’re ready to head out, you’ll find your bags loaded on a golf cart just outside the pro shop door. All golf carts are equipped with Visage GPS and an ice chest of bottled water. From there, head a few short steps over to The Preserve’s full-length driving range, where you can hit every club in the bag. It’s not a bad idea, since you’ll probably use them all! The golf course features two vastly different nines. The front nine winds its way through and around swamps of cypress trees and groves of live oaks while the back nine brings pitcher plant bogs, long leaf pines and savannahs of native grass into play. The signature hole isn’t a long, narrow par 5 or even a par 4 with a long carry over water. It’s the par 3, 16th hole, and can play as long as 225 yards from the back tees or 154 yards from the Red tees. There’s a long, natural waste bunker that shouldn’t come into play as well as a collection of 4 sand bunkers that need to be avoided. But what makes this hole so special is the green. It’s a massive two-tiered green with a lot of slope. The front part of the green slopes right to left and towards the front; catch the crown in the
