Will be heading down in a month or so and looking to play. Hoping to stay at $75 or under on green fee... Looking for suggestions... Thanks!
OT: Biloxi Golf Courses...

- Start date
How far from Biloxi are you willing to travel?
Grand Bear is probably the nicest, most reasonable on the coast.

I've heard the same. The Champions Tour has a tournament there once a year. It's a nice layout, but coming from Biloxi it's probably the same amount of time to Grand Bear and when I lived there Gold Digest said it was a top 100 course. It's inexpensive too. A river runs alongside, it's nice.
Grand Bear is a good start
But might want to check out Shell landing. The Oaks and Windance are solid. If you want to spend little more check out The Preserve. Grand Bear is a very good golf course that you will enjoy.

$75 should cover basically everywhere but Fallen Oak (the Beau's course) and the Preserve (the Palace's). Grand Bear will be the nicest course available to you. Not sure where you're staying, but it's probably around 40-45 minutes from the Beau. Wind Dance and the oaks are probably a little bit closer. Both nice courses although not casino nice. Shell Landing is nice and a very different course for Mississippi and supposedly Mississippi National (name has changed since I've been down there
is nice too. Both will probably be on the outside of 30 minute drives depending on where you're coming from in Biloxi. The Bridges in Bay St. Louis (Hollywood's) is nice, but short and narrow. Don't go there unless you are a straight hitter. And it's also probably closer to the 45 minute mark as far as driving. If you are more worried about convenience and time than how nice the course is, Sunkist is north of the bay off popps ferry in biloxi, or if you're in southwest Biloxi, you could do great southern (on the beach in gulfport) or I guess st. andrews (off washington in Ocean Springs). These would probably also all be cheaper than your other options with the exception of Grand Bear, which will have ridiculous specials a lot of times.
You've gotten some good recommendations but just as a FYI the Preserve will close May 5th through the summer to completely redo all of their greens. If you are willing to travel to Mobile the Robert Trent Jones course Magnolia Grove is extremely nice for the price. They have two 18 hole courses and a 9 hole par 3. I like to play 18 then have lunch in the clubhouse followed by the par 3 course. Fun day.

St. Andrew's is closed. Sunkist can be a great deal of fun for not a whole lot of money. If you are looking for something different for a decent price, Great Southern is the oldest course in Mississippi, so that makes it stand out a little. Gulf Hills, the course off of Washington is pretty fun as well. Went to Hickory Hills (former Mississippi National) not too long ago, and I felt Shell Landing was much better for not that much more in price.
