The Preserve at Verdae
About
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.

Beautiful but tough finishing hope. Photo submitted by u000001682547 on 10/03/2013
Slow is an understatement
Played it for the second time and it didn't disappoint. Course conditions were great, greens were true, tees were good, bunkers were raked and in great shape(ask me how I know lol) and fairways/rough were great as well. Only drawback was the pace of play. The group I was paired with kept getting held up by the group in front of us (our three being held up by 3 and then eventually 2). It took just over 4.5 hours to play 18(granted path only play, but still incredibly slow) due to the group not knowing how to play ready golf. It would be recommended that maybe staff be on course to move groups along to keep pace of play moving.
The Preserve
Great staff, especially Nancy. I payed as a single and was paired up with two members. They were very helpful in suggesting where to play the ball. The yardage card and noted suggestions were also very helpful. A very positive experience all around. Played second and third rounds the next two days. Course dried out a bit the last day and was more fun when it was running and there was roll. Will play again when back in Greenville. Thanks Nancy for holding the lost 6 iron!
Excellent Golf Course
I really enjoy this golf course. The greens are always in great shape. The course is very challenging. The staff always goes out of their way. I highly recommend thsi golf course.
Like the course just too much money
I do like playing this course but dont feel like the price reflects the condition of the course. While it usually is in decent shape its not worth the extra $15-20 per round to play it. This is the most expensive public course in Greenville yet the conditions are not much better than your average course. I typically play during the week but still cant seem to get a tee time for less than $45-50. Most courses in the area are no more than $35 during the week.
Great course
Course was in excellent condition. Great flag placement with greens rolling consistently. Best tee boxes I’ve seen in months.
Great shape!!
This is a beautiful course! Not an easy course by any means. Greens are fast and true with subtle breaks making three putts easy to obtain.
Nice course
course and greens were in great condition.
Friendly staff and great carts.
Great Course
SUPER FRIENDLY STAFF!!!!!
Very challenging course. Well worth the few bucks to play!
Great place
It's not an easy course. You'll have many a challenging hole. At the end of the round you'll be grinning from ear to ear!
