Mississippi

Mississippi’s 166 golf courses offer the Deep South’s most accessible and affordable golf, with the Gulf Coast casino corridor anchoring a resort market that includes some genuinely excellent public courses alongside casino-affiliated layouts that compete for the Alabama, Louisiana, and Florida beach traveler market.

Golf in Mississippi surprises visitors: the Gulf Coast between Gulfport and Biloxi has a higher concentration of quality public courses than many larger markets, led by casino resort layouts from Tom Fazio (Fallen Oak, exclusive to Beau Rivage guests), Jack Nicklaus (Grand Bear), and Davis Love III (Shell Landing). For golfers willing to explore beyond the coast, the pine forests and river bottomland of central and northern Mississippi produce a handful of hidden gems at remarkably low green fees.

Mississippi Golf by Region

Gulf Coast / Biloxi / Gulfport

The Mississippi Gulf Coast is the state’s golf destination, driven by Biloxi’s casino resort economy. Fallen Oak Golf Course — a Tom Fazio design exclusively available to Beau Rivage MGM Resort guests — is Mississippi’s highest-ranked course nationally, a secluded layout through pine and hardwood forest that earns top-10 state rankings despite its restricted access. Grand Bear Golf Course (Jack Nicklaus design, 7,204 yards), affiliated with Harrah’s, is the top accessible resort public option. Shell Landing (Davis Love III) and The Preserve Golf Club (Jerry Pate) round out an impressive coastal public roster.

Jackson / Central Mississippi

Jackson has Mississippi’s largest urban golf market with a mix of private clubs and public daily-fee courses. Annandale Golf Club (private) is consistently rated the state’s top private layout. Public options in the Jackson area run $25–$45 for everyday rounds through flat terrain typical of central Mississippi’s landscape. The University of Mississippi’s Tupelo region in the north has several accessible public courses serving college communities.

When to Play Golf in Mississippi

Mississippi is a near-year-round golf state with a practical peak season from March through May and September through November. Summers (June–August) are hot and very humid (88–95°F); early morning rounds help, but afternoon conditions are uncomfortable. The Gulf Coast benefits from sea breezes that moderate temperatures slightly. Winter play (December–February) is easily possible with average highs of 55–65°F, and courses rarely close due to weather. Spring conditions are excellent — courses are lush after winter and temperatures are pleasant before summer humidity builds.
