Timberton Golf Club Top 100 Review

Timberton Golf Club, located in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, is a championship-caliber course designed by noted PGA Tour professional and course architect Mark McCumber. Opening in July 1991, the course has matured into one of South Mississippi's premier golf destinations and is Hattiesburg's only 4.5-star rated facility.

The course plays well for all skill levels while maintaining championship standards. It features a scenic setting with Timberton's private lakes providing distinctive water hazards and aesthetic appeal. The property includes spectacularly designed grounds with views of the championship layout, contributing to its recognition by respected golf publications throughout its three-decade history.

The club offers amenities beyond the course itself, including a regulation par-3 practice hole with a USGA-standard green and practice bunker for members. A scenic nature trail winds through the property, ideal for walking or jogging. The facility emphasizes pace of play with "Quick Turn" menu items available at the turn, and maintains professional management with Ron Hickman, a PGA Master Professional and former Golf Digest Teacher of the Year, serving as General Manager since the course's opening.
