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.

Great track

Had a 7:40 tee time on a Monday morning for a twosome. We were paired with another twosome. Starter let us split so we could each play by ourself. Pace of play was great. A lot of people walking the course. Course was in great shape. Greens were very fast but rolled true.

Enjoyable course

Very impressed with the course. Greens were smooth and fast. Course was challenging but enjoyable. There are tee shots and approach shots that require a fair amount of carry over waste areas and hazards. Very beautiful holes that use the natural landscape well. Staff was very concerned with maintaining the environmentally sensitive areas and natural waste areas. I was a single that was paired up with other singles. I will play this course again and recommend it for someone in the Greenville area looking to play a nice course.

This is a great course. Fairways and greens were in fantastic shape. Only problem i noticed were the old flag holes on the greens were not repaired correctly leaving dips in the greens. I had to put through a few of them and it greatly altered the ball path.

Great Deal for a Great Course

We got a great deal for 18 holes on Golf Now for the Preserve at Verdae. I paid how much it would normally cost for 1 person for both myself and my wife for 18 holes. The greens had just been aerated recently but were still in good shape. Besides that, the course was in fantastic condition.

Challenging Course

This course is challenging and fun to play. The start was friendly with the exception to the people who collect your money. Gruff would describe them pretty well. No personality and just give me your money. Everyone else was great. We Got the twilight rate at 1:30 Which was $20 off. At that rate it was a Real value. I wouldnt pay the $59 normal fees, it seems a bit high for this course.

Nice Day of Golf

Paired up with a guy and his son. Really nice day of golf. Grass was still dormant but that's because of this hard winter. Greens were in good shape.

Nice shape, but keep the ball near the path

We got a great $22 Hot Deal and found the course to be in very good condition. Greens putted very true and were in excellent shape. The only real downside to the day was that most holes were "carts on path". Being that it's a rather hilly terrain, you'll find yourself climbing up and down inclines throughout the round. Our round could have been played faster had we been able to take our cart on the fairway more often.

Great course but slow play!

Course was in good condition for being early Spring. Would love to play it when in full season. If you are not an experienced golfer, please find another course. The pace of play was slow due to the difficulty of the course and the inexperience of the golfers ahead of us.

Used to be great

This course was one of the best in Greenville. Course conditions have declined in the last couple years. Course staff are not very friendly. Biggest problem the last two times I played there was pace of play. Almost 5 hours for a round is ridiculous. Also, no marshals making sure play is moving along.

Above Expectations

I played this course about a year ago and was not happy at all with the course conditions or the overall value. I have to say I was very pleased with both this time around. Granted, the regular rates still seem a bit pricey, the Golfnow special was well worth the money. The course was in much better shape than the last time I played, aside from a few spots which seem to not drain very well. The greens rolled well but I found them quite tricky as the grain has a major influence on the path of the ball. The only exception was 11 green, which is still pretty patchy along the front 1/3. The practice facilities were an added bonus and I found them much nicer than other practice ranges in the area. I will be playing this challenging course again.

Challenging, hilly, and a great course to play

Loved the course. Fun and challenging holes. Greens, which were fairly fast and challenging, we're in great shape. Especially for the time of year.

Great Track

Played this October 4, 2013. Course was in great shape with only a few spots that were less than pristine. Looked like they had water standing for a while in a few areas.

Played from the Blue Tees at 6630 or so and a slope of 133. I'm a 0 hcp and this was a challenging course that had me use every club in my bag. Great forced carries with some blind shots. Had to throttle back a few times off the tee but other times you needed to hit all you had to set up for an approach. Overall I had a ball on this course and hope to play it again in March 14.

If you have a chance to play this like I did for $23 it is a steal!! Some great vistas as you go around the course but for the most part you feel as if you are the only ones on the course. A true gem.
