English Turn Golf & Country Club is a Jack Nicklaus design that was crafted in 1988 to host the New Orleans PGA Tour event. Nicklaus designed the course to be enjoyed equally by spectators and golfers, incorporating gallery berms and spectator mounds throughout. This challenging design is known for its undulating greens that will test even the most seasoned players. Each hole has a unique design that combines strategically placed bunkers, including large waste bunkers, and sloping grass swales. There is also carefully sculpted mounding along the edges of the fairways. On top of that, water comes into play on nearly every hole. English Turn's signature hole, the 15th, is a tricky par 5 with an island green but it's the final hole, a par 4 with water all along the left side, that is rumored to be the golf course's toughest.

Amazing Day!

Haven’t played English Turn since they shut the course down. I have to say the course is in great shape. Greens and sand traps are very professional. Ball speed on the greens were perfect and every trap was well maintained. James did an amazing job of explaining the course to my son since it was his first time playing. Definitely taking advantage of the HOT DEALS In the future.

Superb conditions

Post hurricane Ida, English Turn was in superb condition although dry in early November. The greens were smooth and fast. The staff were the most professional of all the courses I have played in the past. This is THE course to play in the New Orleans area.

Bob’s English Turn golf course revire

We had a delightful day playing eighteen holes. We were paired with a single woman from KC who took the game as serious as we did. Lots of gimme putts and plenty of foot wedges. Jack Nicholas did a nice job on the course by not making it too difficult and minimum sand traps.

Some improvement

The layout of this course is second to none in the GNO

But, even after being closed for a few months a couple of the greens are poop.

The money you pay-go somewhere else

Greens are a huge disappointment. The money you pay you may as well do TPC. The greens have sandtraps practically. Staff was great. Facilities were great. Cart girl every two holes it seemed. Just the greens did not do this course design justice.

Great update

The course was just renovated. Greens immaculate and course is in great shape. Golf now hot deal is where it’s at. Pace was slow due to the recent reopening. Tough course with small greens but nice challenging lay out.

So close...

The course is very fun to play and is challenging with unique hole layouts, immaculate fairways, many bunkers/water hazards, and TINY greens. This would be a top three course (in NOLA) easy if the greens weren't the shag carpet someone reclaimed from a 1970's house fire, and if the MANY bunkers around the course played consistently. You either got perfectly manicured white clouds, or a hole someone stole the sod out of then dusted it with brown sugar and cinnamon. For the weekday rate of $50, I can't say I would see myself going back until the greens were remedied, cause ideally the bunkers are something to be avoided anyway, but putting through a forest of a green that's been littered with napalm strikes really kills the enjoyment of what could be a spectacular place to play. Apparently they will be putting a large investment into the greens soon though, so fingers crossed.

Sad to see this once great course in such squalid condition.

This used to be my favorite course to play....now it’s a shell of it’s former PGA tour stop condition. Greens and fairways are horrible.

Save your money and play elsewhere.
