Excellent Coarse
Staff are the most friendly and helpful fun loving bunch I have run into lately.
The day was hot our golfing not so.
Rough was as long as I have seen it in 6 months but if I would play the fairways I would have had no problems wit this beautiful coarse
Play this coarse and you'll go home content with whatever you score.
Nice course
Played at Sunkist the day after a torrential downpour in the Biloxi area. Although the course was very wet it was in good shape. The people there were very accommodating. I would definitely play here again and would also recommend to anyone. Thank you.
This golf course had the worst greens I have ever played on. The grass clippings from the greens where just dumped all around the greens. Pay the extra $20 and go play the Grand Bear.
Sunkist Golf Course
I don't like spending money on a course that had aerated their greens, not sanded but punched their green. I think they should let you know before you pay for the tee time !!!!!!!
Nice golf course
The golf course is nice, and affordable, driving range and putting greens is good. Location is great being so close to my hotel in Biloxi MS. I will definitely play this course again on my next vacation, instead of hanging around at the casinos. Good golf course for any level either beginners or advance levels of golfers. Most importantly the staff at the Pro shop named, Zac was very helpful on explaining what's going on at the golf course. Starters were not grouchy....very professional.
Not your first choice
Not sure as to why, but the course was in bad shape. The greens were awful and the traps needed some TLC. The layout was nice but not accurately reflected on yardage markers on the course or scorecard. As I am not a local I cannot say for certainty but the groups of players, both high and low handicappers, were slow...very slow. If I was assured the greens recovered and the pace of play improved, I would play again and recommend the course. However, as is avoid.
Sunkist
Beautiful day in MS and a perfect day for golf. Course was in fairly decent shape. They were core aerating the day we played. Greens in great shape.
Great Course
Sunkist Country Club was a fun experience, played late in the afternoon and had only a couple of slow holes with pace of play. The greens were immaculant and rolled fast and true. Fairways had just been punched and aereted but still rolled consistent. Had some tricky holes with fun designs and overall just a great experience. They will be punching and aerating the greens may 1st-15th so I probably wouldn't play there during that time frame however any other time it is a great place to play and challenge your golf game.
Great course for price paid
Greens ran great and somewhat true. Fairways could use some work. Overall great experience and very great and welcoming staff.
Front 9
the front 9 fairways and greens are in poor condition. On the back 9, they were good to very good. Overall cleanliness and upkeep were 4 stars.
Mounded greens
Fairways run next to each other which allow you to spray tee shots on some holes and get away with it. Of course, this also results in groups playing toward you on your hole when they mishit. Due to mounded greens, if you miss short front, you are fine, but miss green to left or right and your wedge game will be tested. Greens are fast.
I play this course 15+ times a year. One of the best values you will find on the MS coast.
A
SunKist is a straight ahead, well maintained course.
There is nothing tricky about it, Play moved along well, the greens were in good shape. Overall much better condition than the other area courses.
Fun Outing
I'm from New Orleans, but often spend the weekend in the Bay St. Louis. I really enjoy this course because of the elevation changes. Being from New Orleans, elevation changes barely exist. While this course isn't long (~6250 from the tips) there are some really great holes with blinds shots, shots over water, doglegs & uphill/downhill. The greens have been in great shape every time I've played and roll true, while not being crazy fast or frustratingly slow. I'll happily make the drive to play there again.
Biloxi golfing fun!
Enjoyed playing with Mike and Roger from Ft. Walton, Fl. Thanks GolfNow for making it possible.
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
