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.

Sometimes you beat the course.......

Walked away humbled by the beauty and challenge of this course. Lots of ups and downs and twisty turnies. Course was in very good condition. Greens were fast and true. This was our first experience on what I believe were called "advanced zoysia" greens. They were fast and hard (for me) to read. But, they were certainly pretty. The entire facility was nice. Will be playing here again when back in the area.

Doglegs

Interesting course. Decent driving range yet for no obvious reason we were on the mats. Starter was a bit rude, though I think she thought she was funny. Pretty course, almost every hole was a dogleg. Course map was unhelpful and confusing and with so many tree lined doglegs, it was hard club selection to get straight shot into the holes. The course was dry yet quite a few holes were cart path only which made for slower play and irritation. Bunkers need some work , greens were well kept. Not much amenities for after.

So tranquil- GREAT TRACK

Loved Verdae- this is a gem- utterly secluded & you feel light years away from it all- even though it's only 10 minutes from downtown. Conditions for the early fall were flawless- great fairways & greens- for a very reasonable price. Will definitely return for another visit- highly recommend- JP

Fantasy

Was told this was one of the harder courses in the Greenville area, but surprisingly I shot my lowest round ever here. Overall 10:10 and when I am back in town I will be playing here again.

Great course in the middle of nowhere in town

Need a lot of local knowledge to really enjoy this course. After playing it once I’m looking forward to going back to try it again with the information I learned on this first found for me.

The course is in great shape from tee to green and I look forward to my next visit.

Made it a good day

The Preserve is a nice course and even though it is on Tuesday middle of town, it seems secluded. The course is in great shape from tee to green. I really enjoyed the layout, albeit challenging.

I plan on playing here again.

NOT WORTH THE MONEY!!

One of the most mediocre courses in the Upstate, yet they charge the cost of a private pristine club. I play here almost weekly due to it being so close to my house….that is until they sent out an email today alerting us pricing is increasing EVEN MORE! My group will surely not be returning. Don’t waste your money!
