Greens are smooth
Enjoyed another great round at Sunkist as always friendly staff great course conditions and wonderful pace-of-play. The greens were in the best shape I've ever seen them extremely smooth and pretty quick another great round
Nice public course
Nice course, leafs are are on the course and could be cleaned up. Driving range is lacking grass. Fun course for all levels of players, most greens are raised.
Not What Was Expected
They allow groups of 5 behind a single and no one plays through. 20-25 minutes sometimes waiting to hit a shot. Course condition was not at all what was expected for $35. Many patches in fairways of just sand. (Not sand traps) doubtful will play this course again.
Good Time on Nice Course
I'm a novice golfers and I enjoyed this course. The fairways are fairly wide which was great for me.
Great Course
Course was in good condition, will play again if I pas through Biloxi.
Above average, highly recommended
Overall a good value, especially if you are military the discount is excellent. Tee boxes and greens very well maintained. Course condition was well above average for the time of year. A few areas had some standing water due to poor drainage but otherwise no issues. Very empty during the early morning but tee times seemed to fill up around 10am on the weekend. Fairways often ran parallel, thus shanked or mishit balls frequently ended up on adjacent fairways, interrupting pace of play.
Great Day on the course
Greeted by some of the most friendly staff i have aver encountered. Form the front desk to the starter everyone was very accommodating and got us off as soon as we signed in.
Pace of play on this well maintained and professional course was excellent, no push no wait from tee to green.
This is a definite must play if you are in the area.
Must play if in Biloxi area
Fantastic "hot deal" from Golf Now. The course staff super friendly and the layout was a lot of fun. Fairly open so u can let the big dog hunt on most holes. Water in play on several. Biggest challenge was the greens. Lots of undulation and crowned fairly small greens. Miss on wrong side and 3 putt city awaits.
GO and PLAY.
Colo. Visitor
Nice course for all. Very tuff greens.
Greens were tough
Challenging greens. Have to be hole high, or ball rolls off
Enjoyed
My wife and I really enjoyed playing the course.
No pressure on pace of play and the layout of the course was great.
We'll return soon to Sunkist.
Old Style
If you want an old established course that presents minor challenges that maybe you don't see at your local course, then this may be it. Good deal on Golf Now and that made it better.
Perfect weather day, just wished the game matched it.
Most holes are close to each other, and the biggest challenge was the smallish greens built basically the same, which is like an upside down bowl. If you are not hitting center of green, then the ball rolled away.
I wished I was pre-warned on a couple of holes about lurking trouble on drives, but lucky enough to stay out of it.
A hidden gem
One of my golf buddies and I took advantage of a special GolfNow deal and thoroughly enjoyed our round there. The range is very limited, but allowed us to warm up pre-round. Tee boxes are graded good for skill level, but sometimes a bit unkemp. Fairways are generally lush, albeit a little bumpy in places. Bunkers are few and in good condition. Water hazards are generally not a hindrance. Greens can be challenging, but roll true. The carts seem to be relatively new. Overall, it was a very pleasant round.
perfect weather & perfect golf??
It was a beautiful day for golf and we hall had a fun round of golf. The course was in good condition & the greens were perfect. The next time I'm in Biloxi I will book a tee time at Sunkist.
Excellent Value and a Real Nice Course
I really enjoyed playing Sunkist, the course is in very good condition with very nice grass in the fairways, the rough is challenging yet playable, the greens are very well maintained, almost impossible to forget a scorecard and the tee boxes are adequately elevated and well defined. The layout of the course is challenging yet manageable for the average golfer. Overall, this was a tremendous value for everything that this course had to offer.
Pleasant round of golf
Challenging greens with a lot of slopes make up for the shorter overall length.
