Mossy Oak Golf Club Breaks Ground on Clubhouse Costing More Than $3 Million in West Point, Mississippi
Golf Clubs Mississippi broke ground Thursday on a clubhouse costing more than $3 million at Mossy Oak Golf Club in West Point, Mississippi. It opens the company’s plan to join Mossy Oak and Old Waverly as one destination, with a second clubhouse, a connecting tunnel, and about 150 homes planned.
On Thursday, October 15, 2026, Golf Clubs Mississippi LLC broke ground on a new clubhouse at Mossy Oak Golf Club in West Point, Mississippi. The Clay County project will cost more than $3 million. The company now manages Mossy Oak together with Old Waverly Golf Club, and the new building marks the first visible step in a plan to operate the two courses as one regional golf destination.
The published program centers on the golf day. According to reporting by WTVA, the clubhouse will include men’s and women’s locker rooms and a golfers’ grill serving breakfast and lunch, plus an outdoor pavilion that Jim Clay, general manager of Old Waverly, said will hold about 160 people. Golf Clubs Mississippi is aiming to open the building by Labor Day 2027. After that, the space is expected to host community and charitable events. Both Mossy Oak and Old Waverly will remain open throughout construction.
The budget reads best in proportion. Set against the $23 million main clubhouse renovation at River Oaks Country Club in Houston, Texas, or the $16.5 million Project Plan at The Colony Golf & Country Club in Bonita Springs, Florida, the Mossy Oak figure is modest. By the published description, it buys a building centered on locker rooms, a daytime grill, and event space. As new construction, it sits closer in kind to the Ace Valley clubhouse groundbreaking at Breezy Point Resort in Minnesota than to those renovations.

The larger story is the plan surrounding the building. Golf Clubs Mississippi also intends to build a second multimillion-dollar clubhouse at Old Waverly, along with a tunnel connecting the two courses that will link to Mississippi State’s practice facility. The group has bought land from Mossy Oak as well and plans to build about 150 homes there. Those homes would add a residential community to the golf, and the tunnel would join the two courses physically while giving both a connection to Mississippi State.
Jerry Pate, the 1976 U.S. Open champion who chairs Golf Clubs Mississippi, described the intent as tying the courses together so guests stay on both properties and the two developments feel like “one home of golf here in Mississippi.” Clay framed the spending in terms of Old Waverly’s standing. He told WTVA that the ownership group wants the club to keep growing, to remain the leading club in Mississippi, and to stand among the best in the nation, and that the money now going into the property reflects that intent.

Several details remain unpublished. No architect, general contractor, or square footage has been named for the Mossy Oak clubhouse. The report gave no budget or schedule for the Old Waverly clubhouse, the tunnel, or the homes, nor any pricing for the residences. The members of the ownership group behind Golf Clubs Mississippi were not identified.
The Mossy Oak building matters less as a standalone project than as the hinge of a larger arrangement. A shared operator, a second clubhouse, a tunnel between courses, a connection to Mississippi State, and a residential component together describe one golf campus rather than two separate clubs. If the remaining pieces follow, the Mossy Oak clubhouse will stand as the first building of that campus, and its Labor Day 2027 opening will be the first measure of whether the plan holds to schedule.
