The Preserve at Verdae sprawls across a lush landscape of rolling hills and meadows covered with beautiful Carolina forests. Formerly known as Verdae Greens, the golf course was completely revamped but one of the primary goals of the renovation was to find harmony between golf and nature. The carefully reworked course does just that, blending seamlessly into its scenic surroundings. Rambling brooks wander across the layout and provide water hazards on a few holes. The wind is also a major factor on this golf course. The breezes can be either light and refreshing or strong and blustery, making proper club selection even more important. The most photographed hole on the golf course is the par-3 second. If you're lucky enough to come when the azaleas are blooming, this hole offers a breathtaking setting.

Challenging track. Greens had just been sanded so they were slow and inconsistent. Some holes are blind. Hole layouts are necessary or you will hit it in the stuff you can’t see

Give it a Shot

In town, Greenville SC, with the wife for her girl's get together. Brought the clubs just in case. Picked The Preserve based on the reviews and photos. Good move on my part. The course was in great shape. Holes are spacious and tree lined without homes. Personnel was friendly and accommodating. The range is large with separate chipping and putting areas. My only knock was the greens played slower than I'm accustomed. I will definitely play this one again.

Good track, test of golf

Had a good time playing. The Marshall was kind of power tripping, but once we got going it was okay. Pace of play really slowed on the back 9. Overall, good course for the price

Well worth the GN deal

A lot of blind shots, but this is a great golf course that’s in really good shape. Played from the senior tees so it wasn’t long , but better be accurate

Pricey

75 dollars for this course is a little pricey to me, the course was nice but absolutely flooded I guess from all the rain we have been getting. If you come as a 1 person or 2 person they will make you pair up, 4 to a group from what I could see, the pace was pretty decent though, not too slow. This should be a 50 dollar weekend course though. fair warning if you miss the fairway even by a little on some holes you won’t find it. Lost a ball 15 foot from the green, overall I’d go back but wouldn’t visit every weekend it’s too pricey

Beautiful course

Course was in great shape, greens were very nice and fast, but not as fast as I’ve seen them. This could be from all of the rain we had received the few days before playing it. Staff is always very friendly and helpful. They have a great driving range with natural grass and mats, on this day the only thing open were the mats and I prefer to hit off of the natural grass. Will definitely go back again.

Excellent condition and always a fun round!

Verdae as I've always called it is a solid public course that is very convenient and in great condition. Some of the holes had some standing water on them but that's to be expected considering the amount of rain we have received. Overall a great round and value for the money.

Good course for the money

Enjoyed the course. Greens punched three weeks ago so I bit slow but in really good shape. Fairways were in great shape some of the tee boxes were a bit beat up though. Nice lay out fair but tough course. People working there were very pleasant. Haven’t played in years but will be back much sooner. Thanks for the great experience.

Good shape, recently punched greens

They punched greens last week, but was not bad at all in comparison to other courses I've played with recently punched greens, plus they discounted green fee for this reason. Fairways and bunkers in good shape. Pace of play was ok. Just over 4 hours, so reasonable. I've played here before in just under 4 hours, so in the average.
