Aerated, but beautiful
Course itself was challenging and fun. However, the Greens were aerated on June 8, so the Greens are exceptionally unfair. It would have been nice to see the Aerated symbol on the booking website.
Beautiful, Scenic, Challenging Course
As I was told by the young man in the pro shop, "target golf is required", & that definitely rang true. You must be accurate off the on nearly every hole, or the course can get very challenging(you can easily lose balls if you go just a tad too far left/right), & the same goes for the greens. Has some amazing views, particularly over the water on the front 9. All in all, a very enjoyable experience; can't wait to go back!
Fun and challenging
Great course in excellent condition despite days of rain. I had not played the Bridges since Katrina and was pleasantly surprised to find it even better than before. Only 50 miles from downtown New Orleans we stayed at the Hollywood Casino Resort while there for the Sugar Bowl. The course is challenging though fair with several tees to choose from. Both greens and fairways were in great shape. A definite must play during any visit to the MS gulf coast.
Scenic and challenging golf course
It's not an overly long course but each of the holes offers a bit of a challenge. The name is aptly derived from the many bridges on the course. Walking would be tough as some of the holes follow a very circuitous route. The greens were excellent and very fast (the way I like them). The layout has an excellent variety of long and short holes, forced carries and blast away holes, narrow and wide fairways - in general Arnold Palmer did his usual excellent job designing the course. Some of the holes, especially number 8, were beautiful. It is a good as any course on the MS gulf coast and not as pricey as some of the others. Highly recommend it.
$60 - $70 for a $35 -$40 course
Weekend play...no one at the bag drop...no starter...group of five golfers slowing us down...bunkers not raked...
The Bridges is interesting to play and I would return.
The Bridges is not long from the "whites", but has enough forced carrys and difficult positions to keep you on your toes. The fairways were immaculate and the greens were like new astro turf. Some of the tees were a little rough and some of the infrastructure needs attention--wooden bridges and paths. The staff was very nice with one unintentional miscue. We asked to play as a twosome only. I pointed out that may wife had 2 knee surgeries last year and we may play slower than other golfers would appreciate. The pro shop attendant gave us a tee time alone, but then pointed out that the cart had to be back by 7pm. Our tee time was 3:20. If we had been informed of the cart return deadline earlier, we would have requested an earlier tee time. In order to finish on time, my wife opted to not play the back nine. That was a disappointment.
well kept
this is a very well kept course. greens were nice...a little pricey but this was a great course to play
