About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6983 yards
Slope 128
Rating 73.1

Formerly known as Mississippi National Golf Club

Designer Earl Stone's vision of a traditional yet demanding test of golf comes to life at Hickory Hill Country Club. Water comes into play on 10 holes, demanding strict attention to shot placement and strategy.

The 6,983 yard, par-72 layout is scenic enough to put a player's mind at ease, while challenging enough for even the most expert golfers. A course rating of 73.1 and a slope of 128 has enabled Hickory Hill to host numerous high profile events.

The 18-hole semi-private golf course opened in 1965.

Needs Some Love!

We visit Biloxi to spend time at the gulf and play some golf as it gets cold up north. We picked Hickory Hills from the website. The clubhouse was nice and the staff was friendly.
The course was rough. Fairways were weathered. The tee boxes were worn and the greens were impossible to putting. Some greens had rot and were just beat up.
When we travel we try to play local courses and some are better than others.
Hickory Hills needs some love!

It’s been let go.

I worked here back in high school in 94, 95 & 96. The course use to host the Nike tour back then and it’s sad to see how this course has been let go. Tee boxes and fairways are covered in weeds. Bunkers are not kept up and you won’t be able to putt a true line on the poorly maintained greens. I’ve played here twice in the last 5 yrs and both times have been a huge disappointment. This course use to be a gem course to play on the coast and now it can’t even be used as a practice course.

What it could be

This course built in the 1960’s was a pristine course and has changed hands numerous times through the years declining each time. Maintenance of the course is horrendous, drinking water is nonexistent in the south Mississippi heat. Bahia Grass Fairways are partially cut
Greens all hold water on fringe causing your ball to plug. .

Course is a little rough

Played the front 9 after a night with some typical overnight rain. Some Greeks very slow and some fast. Course condition in general was alright. Apparently they have been working hard to get it back into shape so progress is being made. Some areas are worse than others, some unmaintained t boxes and bunkers. Other than that it was good. Fun course, nice people and clubhouse. As we finished hole 9 there were a line of about 6 carts waiting to start so it was getting backed up.

An enjoyable experience

This course has a good layout. Very challenging drives and approaches, like hole #2 which was tough and exciting. The pro shop staff was very professional and knowledgeable. I'm looking forward to playing there again. If you're down in the Mississippi Gulf Coast, check out this golf course

Hickory Hill

I liked the course. Tees, fairways, and greens were all in good shape. Nice layout. Wide fairways. Everyone I encountered was friendly. Pro shop staff was very friendly and helpful. They have a nice bar/grill and patio for post round festivities. I recommend this course.

It's a pretty nice place to play

I feel like as long as you know ahead of time that this isn't a high end course you will be satisfied. The layout of the course is nice and the greens were very soft the day we played. The fairways were in pretty good shape, the rough was a bit more challenging. Some bare spots and quite a bit of roots. But I cannot complain at all about this place. I would recommend this course to anyone, especially if they can get a good deal like we did.

The course was well worth the $25 we paid on the app. I wouldn't pay the $50 that is the regular price.

In need of help

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The course is in need of some TLC. It's hard to believe Golf Now would have this course in their places to play. I wouldn't play this course even if my round was free.
