Timberlane Golf & Recreation

Greens were good - fairways were cut – great value – looking forward to playing again when it when it’s cooler.

The first cut was too long... 1 foot from missing the fairway and u lose your ball unless u walk on top of it.. Greens had been headed in the right direction but not this time..

This course has its ups and downs. It's a course I used to play regularly, but due to course conditions I hadn't been out there in months. Pleased to say it's on it's way back. They had serious issues with the greens earlier, but they are about 90% good, though they were very wet today from watering (even at 10am...). They've done a good job getting sand in the bunkers also. Overall, the course was in decent shape. And for the price, it was absolutely worth it. Got a deal on GolfNow for the round.

The courses greens are much better than they used to be. However; for the fairways some of them had grass as high as the rough. They also waited until friday morning to cut the fairways, one of the busiest golf days days. There was lose cut grass all over the course. i Would hit a ball on the fairway and lose it under cut grass.

course in good shape considering all the rain.

rough was very high, i thinking because they couldn't

mow because of the rain.

rather open, so not much difficulty.

the gal behind the counter, denise, was very cordial.

I wish I could afford to a member .

Great lay out

I think the lady at the front desk who check me in was very rude, because of her I will never book this course again. She acted that Golfnow people was not worth her time. She really put a damper on my round by the way she acted. Course was ok.

The greens are literaaly like putting on waste areas. The tees and fairways are decent. Although the local rules are automatic two putts, if you hit a good shot you dont even want to pitt for birdie. It coulb be an above average course but the gteens ruin it.

Tee to green good greens horrible. Not worth paying to play

Enjoyed another good round at Timberlane G.C. with my golfing partner, Skip. I like Timberlane because it is more challenging than some of the other local New Orleans golf courses. The fact that it was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. is also an incentive to play there.

Yesterday was a warm and humid day to play. The tees and fairways were in good shape. The greens appear to be undergoing reseeding for summer play right now and so, are in fair-poor condition, at least for the time being. If you are looking for the "perfect course" right now in the New Orleans area it may be difficult to find. TPC is going to be closed soon for summer reseeding and Joe Bartholomew on the East Bank is undergoing similar issues with their greens. If you want to enjoy a challenging course with good tees and fairways without fussing too much about the greens, then I recommend Timberlane G.C. for you! Plus, if you call the Clubhouse, you may get a cheaper green fee than using an online booking agent.

great course ! But entering the pro shop from Lapalco blvd terrible !!!!

I returned to Timberlane after a few months layoff due to inclement weather and the preference of my golfing partner to play in New Orleans proper. I was looking forward to playing at Timberlane because it was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr.

I had a good round. Though some of the rough was water-logged and even contained standing water, the 90 degree rule was in effect which made the wide fairways easier to navigate with the cart. Because play was limited that day I pretty much had the course to myself. Consequently, I could take my time and actually scored one of my best rounds anywhere.

Except for some standing water the course was in vary good shape. One limitation right now is that the greens were aerated and sanded and so the putting game was limited. Presumably, in another week or two the greens will be ready to roll true. Check with the freindly staff before playing to find out if the greens are back to "par."

One of the more pleasant experiences of this round was to discover that green fees were reduced to compensate for the aerated and sanded greens. Unfortunatley, this change did not appear on the Golf Now webiste; and so even though Timberlane chargerd me the reduced rate I had to pay the online booking fee. Lesson leaerned? For the time being, call TImberlane for the green fees price before booking through an online agent.

Overall, I great round!

While the locals probably know how bad the greens are on this course, if you are traveling into New Orleans and want to golf you will not want to golf here. I golfed here in February and the greens were just as bad , but in all fairness winter is not the best time and I didn't feel justified in giving the course a poor rating. These greens are by far the worst greens you will ever golf on, it is truly a shame to see what has happened to this beautifully designed rtj senior course. You know things are bad when they have a sign on hole number one saying it as a two-putt course , once you see the greens you will know why. Please do not insult my intelligence with your cut and paste response and just let it go...... kind of like the way you have let this course go.
