The Preserve at Verdae sprawls across a lush landscape of rolling hills and meadows covered with beautiful Carolina forests. Formerly known as Verdae Greens, the golf course was completely revamped but one of the primary goals of the renovation was to find harmony between golf and nature. The carefully reworked course does just that, blending seamlessly into its scenic surroundings. Rambling brooks wander across the layout and provide water hazards on a few holes. The wind is also a major factor on this golf course. The breezes can be either light and refreshing or strong and blustery, making proper club selection even more important. The most photographed hole on the golf course is the par-3 second. If you're lucky enough to come when the azaleas are blooming, this hole offers a breathtaking setting.

Superior course!

Verdae is always in beautiful condition, and the greens consistently well maintained. The tournaments are always fun, well-run, and very reasonably priced with an ample boxed lunch And/or a delicious meal afterwards!

Great value

Nice course. Greens in excellent condition, but fairways were dry and rough was dirt, sand and tree roots. Course needs a lot of work to bring it up to the standard that I'm assuming existed when it opened. Overall though, for $30, this is excellent value and a fun course.

The Preserve

This is a nice course that is well taken care of. The staff is very friendly. We started on time and we were not rushed or held up. It isn’t an easy course but not real difficult either. Challenging without being frustrating. We will play again and often.

Tight Course

Bring your A game or a lot of balls. Well designed course with elevation changes throughout. If your first time you’ll need help on some holes. Enjoyed the round. I’ll be back.

Sometimes you beat the course.......

Walked away humbled by the beauty and challenge of this course. Lots of ups and downs and twisty turnies. Course was in very good condition. Greens were fast and true. This was our first experience on what I believe were called "advanced zoysia" greens. They were fast and hard (for me) to read. But, they were certainly pretty. The entire facility was nice. Will be playing here again when back in the area.

Nice, but very tough course

First time playing the course. It’s a very nice course but is difficult. There are some blind tee shots that you have to play position and not just blast driver. Price was good for a nice course.

Fantasy

Was told this was one of the harder courses in the Greenville area, but surprisingly I shot my lowest round ever here. Overall 10:10 and when I am back in town I will be playing here again.

Doglegs

Interesting course. Decent driving range yet for no obvious reason we were on the mats. Starter was a bit rude, though I think she thought she was funny. Pretty course, almost every hole was a dogleg. Course map was unhelpful and confusing and with so many tree lined doglegs, it was hard club selection to get straight shot into the holes. The course was dry yet quite a few holes were cart path only which made for slower play and irritation. Bunkers need some work , greens were well kept. Not much amenities for after.
