About
When Timberlane Golf & Recreation opened in 1959 as Timerlane Country Club, it was the first private golf club on the west bank of the Mississippi. The oaks planted at that time have beautifully matured, adding to both the scenery and difficulty of the golf course. Robert Trent Jones, Sr. designed the course, crafting a challenging test that has been ranked as one of the most difficult golf courses in the country. You'll have to contend with 80 strategically placed sand bunkers and 17 different water hazards. While the course is not overly punishing, you'll have to be prepared to have every aspect of your game tested. Before tackling Timberlane''s golf course you may find it helpful to warm up using the club's all-grass driving range and you can use the large putting green to practice with putting, chipping, and sand play.

18th green! Sticking it close! Photo submitted by dahnguyen on 10/27/2015
The back 9 could use some attention, the bridges between 10 & 11, and the foot bridge between 15 & 16 need some work. Rotten/ damaged lumber on both.
Amazing staff
This course is amazing greens are awesome and the whole course is awesome
Excellent condition
I was surprised to see that the rough wasn't overgrown as many courses are these days. Greens had a few bad spots but were playable.
Meh
For 30 bucks you can lose balls in the rough where glass clippings are. The greens are slow and scarred. The fairways are fuzzy and long. Play it for less than 40. They are trying at least ( looking at you Stonebridge)
Saturday Shambles
Terrible condition. Fairways uncut, greens were not puttable. Spend your money else where. Course has a good layout just 0 $ seems to be reinvested in the course. Needs complete overhaul of cart paths and greens.
Terrible shape and value
TPC Louisiana is much better value. This course is completely trash and needs to be completely redone.
Summer Golf
Course was okay! Greens were not in very good shape. There were a couple that were okay but the rest were beat down. There are no rakes in the traps so landing in a footprint is common. The main bathrooms are still out of order and the Port O Johns are gross.
Not everything was negative, fairways and T boxes were ok and the carts are reliable. We had a good time even if the course wasn't perfect. It's currently BYOB so that's a savings.
Good-morning and thankyou for taking the time to leave us an honest review! The greens when you played were in a transition phase where the winter grass transitions to summer grass! Unfortunately this is something we can't avoid every year. We have started the process of summer grass and aerification as of last week. They should be normal and rolling great very soon! We do not use sand rakes here, We have a local rule that allows you to improve your lie in the bunker. We apologize about the bathroom situation. We have been waiting on our contractor to finish the bathrooms for us for a short while now. Due to material shortages this has taken a bit longer than we had wished for! We do have multiple fully functioning bathrooms on each side of the golf course. Thankyou and we hope to see you back when our course is at our standard!
Thankyou for the review Mr Vincent!
Thankyou for leaving us a review!
Nice Course
The course is in very good condition, for New Orleans this time of year. We’ve played 2 other similarly priced courses and agreed this is the one we’ll come back to.
Thankyou for the honest review! We appreciate you taking the time to give us a feedback! Hope to see you back again soon.
Mystic Creek Experience Stay & Play Package
Goodmorning, TPC and Timberlane are no where near each other cost wise as TPC Charges 200+ dollars and we charge under 100, about 58+ tax. That price on the weekend is in our opinion a steal! TPC is also
a PGA course. During the time you played our course we also gave a significant discount including free lunch due to our greens being freshly aerified just two days before. We did notify everyone of this before they booked and when they checked in. Aerification happens to every golf course and is pertinent to the longevity of the greens. We are sorry you had a bad experience and we hope you try us again in the future when our greens are up to our standard. Thankyou!
