Wife and I want to get away next weekend and think we are going to head to Biloxi...

I want to play Fallen Oak but there are no rooms available at Beau Rivage, is there a way to play there without staying at the Beau?

If I can't get on there, are there some other nice courses around?

Since you're willing the pay the coin to play Fallen Oak, I'd give Shell Landing or Grand Bear. I would say to call The Preserve but I believe they are in week two of their aerification process and they shut it down for 2wks. The Oaks isn't terrible either. I almost forgot,,Windance is always in great shape and they punched the greens about 3wks ago so everything should be good. Wherever you call, I'd ask them when they aerated.

The preserve
Grand bear
The bridges

Those are the top 3 I think

The oaks is in decent shape but it's not really that picturesque of a course.

Shell Landing in Ocean Springs was good when I lived there 8 years ago.

I've heard The Preserve is nice, but I've never played it. Grand Bear is the best course for the price, as long as the greens are in decent shape. The layout is awesome The greens were a little rough the last time I played it.

Windance and both Diamondhead courses are in really good shape and relatively cheap. Haven't played The Bridges in years, but I remember it being nice.

The Oaks is garbage and I've heard nothing but bad things about Shell Landing. A guy who plays with us (At Windance) lives on the course at Shell and rarely ever plays it.

Preserve is about as close to Fallen Oak condition wise as you will find there, Fallen Oak is closed at the moment for more upgrades.

Grand Bear is the next best option after Fallen Oak.

Boot...I started a thread on the Ole Miss board a couple days ago trying to get a little more info on Biloxi and the golf there. May be worth your time to read.

This is the second consecutive year I've made a three day short trip down there. I'll be staying at the White House again this year in Biloxi. Loved it last year, so didn't want to ruin a good thing.
