Rated 3.5 stars by Golf Digest's "Best Places to Play," The Bridges at Hollywood Casino is truly a must-play course. Built out of acres of wetlands and around 17 lakes, the course takes its name from 23 bridges that connect you from hole to hole. As one of the first resort courses given Silver Signature Status by Audubon International, you can be assured of a natural setting for golf. Don't just take it from us, the club was voted "Best Golf" and "Best Resort" by Chance Magazine and "Best Golf" on the Mississippi Gulf Coast by Casino Player Magazine. This is one great track!

The Cardinal course, the modern design of the two championship courses at Diamondhead Country Club is slightly longer than its sister Pine course, however is generally considered a bit easier to play. Golfers of all abilities will have fun playing this scenic track and the signature 15th hole is one of the best around.

The Pines course at Diamondhead Country Club is a classic design that boasts wide tree-lined fairways and large fast-rolling greens. Strategic water hazards, sand bunkers, and an incessant coastal breeze adjoin gnarly teeth to this otherwise inviting layout. Those familiar with this track knows it is a must play for all golfers visiting "The Coast".

Just five minutes from Casino Row, Gulf Hills has been an integral part of the local golf scene for over 70 years. The club has seen it all through this time, including a speakeasy and casino in the roaring 20's and a dude ranch in the 50's. However, local residents now own the club and have done a terrific job restoring it to its rightful status. Although only 6200 yards from the back tees, this Jack Daray layout provides a beautiful setting for golf with rolling hills and well-groomed greens.

Located near the scenic Singing River is Earl Stone's wonderful layout, Mississippi National.

The Mark McCumber design at Windance has been considered one of the Gulf Coast's finest courses since it opened back in 1986. Through the years, Windance has played host to professional events for the Ben Hogan Tour and the Nike Tour as well as many amateur events such as the Mississippi Men's Amateur and the PGA Gulf States Championship. Like the great players who participated in these events, you'll be tested by tight fairways and well-protected greens. In particular, watch out for the 549-yard, par-five 7th hole. It's a total risk/reward hole with a green that only the long hitters should go for. Come see for yourself why Windance is known as "the gem of the Mississippi Gulf Coast."
