The long-window course: The Oaks

The Oaks in Pass Christian is the one course where you can plan a year ahead. Its public "Net Best Rate Guarantee" class on foreUP opens 365 days out, so a group can lock spring dates in the fall. Cardholder and Platinum members use separate tabs. Cancel at least 48 hours before or the card on file is charged, and if a time is sold out, the waitlist sends text alerts.

Prices far in the future may still be adjusted. In late October 2026 the sheet showed $99 weekday and $109 weekend mornings for March and April 2027. Our The Oaks course guide has the rest.

The 14-day courses

Most of the coast's better daily-fee rounds open about two weeks ahead:

  • Windance books on its own EZLinks engine, titled "Windance Country Club - Public", from today to 14 days out. GolfNow also resells its times as prepaid Hot Deals, refundable only if you cancel at least 24 hours ahead. Avoid June 1-4 and August 3-6, the published aerification closures. See our Windance course guide.
  • Diamondhead runs a public tee sheet where you can filter The Cardinal or The Pine; on October 25, 2026 the date tabs ran from October 26 to November 8. The shop opens at 7 AM and first tee times are 7:30 AM. On some days the sheet shows only one course, so call 228-255-3910 to confirm which is open.
  • The Bridges books through TeeItUp, with times found through November 8 when checked on October 25. It is closed every Tuesday and open Wednesday to Monday, 7 AM to 5:30 PM.
  • Sunkist showed bookable times at least 13 days out on foreUP (November 7 was open on October 25). The exact limit was not read.

Short windows and phone bookings

Pass Christian Isles gives visitors only 7 days, and Saturday mornings can be blocked for club events. Check the sheet as soon as your week opens.

Bayou Vista takes walk-ins, but tee times are recommended and required on busy days, walkers included. Book on Teesnap for weekend mornings.

Grand Bear and Shell Landing do not publish a public window. Grand Bear sells times through the club, GolfNow and TeeOff; Shell Landing members get 8 days, and the public should call.

The Preserve books through the Palace Casino Resort engine with a 48-hour cancellation policy. Palace golf sales (1-800-725-2239 ext. 2460) also build stay-and-play packages with Palace Casino Resort rooms.

Bay Breeze at Keesler AFB is phone only. Civilians without base access must call the pro shop with their full name, then visit the Visitors Center the same day with ID, registration and proof of insurance. The Visitors Center is open Monday to Friday, 6 AM to 3 PM, so get a weekend pass on a weekday.

Fallen Oak: booked with the room

Fallen Oak, the Tom Fazio course in Saucier, has no public tee sheet. It is open only to guests of Beau Rivage, and the tee time is booked through the resort with your room reservation. Beau Rivage sells "1 night, 1 round" stay-and-play packages for two in a standard room, bookable through December 31, 2026 on request, and runs transport to the course. The booking window is not published, so ask when you book. Expect guest times to be limited during the Fallen Oak Collegiate Invitational in October (the 2026 event ran October 17-19), though that is not confirmed. Our Fallen Oak tee time guide walks through it.

Group tee times

For 8 or 12 players, book the longest-window courses first. The Oaks lets you hold a spring Saturday months ahead. For the 14-day courses, book on the first day your date appears, before the weekend sheet fills. Ask for back-to-back times so the group finishes together. Our Biloxi buddies golf trip guide covers rooms and budgets for a group.

How to get good tee times in spring

Spring (March to May) is peak season on the coast, with beach highs around 69-83F and green fees at their seasonal high. Spring break and Easter (March 28, 2027) add weekend demand, and the Crawfish Music Festival at the Coliseum fills nearby hotels on its April weekend (April 17-19 in 2026). Weekdays stay easier.

  1. Lock The Oaks first. It is the only course you can hold months out.
  2. Pick weekdays. Tee sheets and casino rooms are easier Sunday to Thursday, and hotel rates jump on Friday and Saturday.
  3. Set reminders for 14-day courses. Windance, Diamondhead and The Bridges open about two weeks out.
  4. Book Fallen Oak with the room. If it is the point of the trip, call Beau Rivage before anything else.
  5. Keep a twilight fallback. Late times from about 2 PM are easier to find and cheaper.

Pass ChristianThe OaksPar 72 · Slope 140 · From $39 · 38 minThe longest and toughest public course west of Gulfport, at 7,006 yards and slope 140 from the tips. Rates run $89-$109, and late-day times drop to $39-$49. Conditioning reviews are mixed, so check recent ones before a big group trip.GulfportWindancePar 72 · Slope 139 · From $85 · 41 minThe best-conditioned public-access course in Gulfport by most recent reviews. It is a firm, pine-lined McCumber layout at $110 in peak season or $85 after 2 PM. Book on the club's own site up to 14 days out.DiamondheadDiamondhead CardinalPar 72 · Slope 131 · From $70 · 47 minThe better of Diamondhead's two property-owner courses, sitting next to the coast's only indoor/outdoor golf academy. Rack rate is $115 all-in, but the online sheet runs about $70-$107. It is a solid, wooded member-style round west of the Bay.DiamondheadDiamondhead PinePar 72 · Slope 136 · From $70 · 47 minDiamondhead's original 1969 course. It rates a bit tougher than the Cardinal on the USGA card and shares the same $115 rack rate, cheaper online prices and academy. Play both in one day for a 36-hole outing.Bay St. LouisThe BridgesPar 72 · Slope 144 · From $65 · 56 minThe hardest course on the west coast of Mississippi, an Arnold Palmer marsh layout with more than 21 bridges and a 144 slope from the tips. Rates are $99-$109, and the casino's unlimited-golf hotel package is the better deal if you stay.BiloxiSunkistPar 72 · Slope 125 · From $59 · 20 minA 1950s semi-private club about 15 minutes from the casinos, at $79-$89 with a cart or $59-$69 after 2 PM.

It is short and old-fashioned, with small greens. Recent reviews say conditioning is hit or miss.GulfportBayou VistaPar 72 · Slope 118 · From $28 · 26 minGulfport's old Tramark municipal course, renamed Bayou Vista. It is short, simple and $28 with a cart. Play it for a cheap, relaxed round, not for conditioning.VancleaveThe PreservePar 72 · From $75 · 28 minThe most polished all-inclusive round on the east side, priced like a resort course. Worth it if you want full service; Shell Landing is the value play nearby.GautierShell LandingPar 72 · Slope 134 · From $55 · 25 minA Davis Love III course that usually costs well under the casino courses. A good value round on the east side of the coast.SaucierGrand BearPar 72 · Slope 143 · From $65 · 57 minA full Nicklaus course in the national forest with no houses on it, open to anyone. It pairs with Fallen Oak for a Saucier day but is a strong round on its own.SaucierFallen OakPar 72 · Slope 142 · From $180 · 29 minThe best course on the Gulf Coast and the one golfers plan the trip around. You can only play it as a Beau Rivage guest, so the hotel choice comes first.BiloxiBay BreezePar 71 · Slope 120 · From $24 · 10 minKeesler Air Force Base's course on the Back Bay, open to military, DoD and their guests, with a civilian visitor-pass route.

Questions golfers ask

How far in advance can I book Biloxi tee times?

It depends on the course. The Oaks opens its public sheet 365 days ahead, Windance, Diamondhead and The Bridges about 14 days, Sunkist at least 13 days, and Pass Christian Isles 7 days. Grand Bear, Shell Landing and The Preserve do not publish a public window.

How do I book a tee time at Fallen Oak?

Only as a guest of Beau Rivage Resort & Casino. The tee time is booked through the resort with your room reservation, and the resort runs transport to the course. The booking window is not published, so ask when you book the room.

Can I use GolfNow for Biloxi courses?

Yes, for several. Windance, The Bridges, Diamondhead and Sunkist are resold on GolfNow, and Grand Bear books through GolfNow and TeeOff. GolfNow Hot Deals are prepaid; at Windance they are refundable only if you cancel at least 24 hours ahead.

Which Biloxi-area course is closed on Tuesdays?

The Bridges Golf Club at Hollywood Casino in Bay St. Louis. It is open Wednesday to Monday from 7 AM to 5:30 PM. Build any Bay St. Louis trip around that.

What is the cancellation policy at The Oaks?

Cancel at least 48 hours ahead or the card on file is charged. The Preserve also has a 48-hour cancellation policy. The Oaks offers a waitlist with text alerts for sold-out times.

Do I need a tee time at Bayou Vista?

Walk-ins are accepted, but tee times are recommended and are required on busy days, walkers included. Book on the course's Teesnap page rather than showing up on a weekend morning.

When should I book spring tee times in Biloxi?

As early as the course allows. Spring is peak season, and weekend tee times and casino rooms fill first. The Oaks opens a year out, so groups can lock March and April dates now; for 14-day courses, set a reminder for the day your week opens.
