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.

wonderful fairways and gorgeous greens

Beautiful sunny day temperature in the lower 70's, the course was gorgeous. Fairways cut and well defined by a rough that is tough. I've been playing public courses lately and forgot the difference of a PGA course and public courses. The greens are much smaller and very much faster. Overall great round on a beautiful course, looking forward to playing again.

Not very happy

Did not play. When my friends and I arrived there we were about to pay for our round and were informed that the 45 dollar fee was only for 9 holes. I made the tee time from my phone and saw nothing to indicate that this was not an 18 hole tee time. My golf buddy later looked on his home computer and said it's easily visible on it but not his phone. We can't afford 90 rounds of golf. Thanks.

Worth a visit

Played in mid-October 2014 with a bunch of guys for a bachelor weekend in NOLA. Good practice facilities.
Hot & humid day, but play was fast. Would've finished in under 4 hours if not for a 30-45 thunderstorm. Not a fan of Nicklaus's numerous grass bunkers guarding already very small greens. However, conditions were pretty good. Greens are fast. Island green on 15 (?) was a fun challenge.
After the round, I got to the bar after it had already closed. Kevin the bartender took pity on my rain-soaked self and made me a drink as long as I was ok paying cash. My 2 friends came and he made us all a nice strong Hurricane. The cup was probably 20 oz. His hospitality was truly memorable. Try getting just a not-bad attitude at Bethpage.
The locker room has showers, as it was originally built to be a private club. THEY ALSO HAVE A STEAM & SAUNA! STEAM AND SAUNA?!?! Yes. Steam & sauna.

So bring an extra change of clothes, enjoy your fast round, have a hurricane made by Kevin, then melt away in the steam room. Any questions?

I recommend English Turn Golf Club

I had clients in New Orleans from out of town and they wanted to play golf. I am not a member at English Turn but you would never know it. The staff was great and the course is in excellent condition this summer.

Almost perfect

Splendid day in the baking Louisiana sunshine. The untidy layout was confusing at first but it didn't spoil the round. The greens were very impressive and ran fast and true. Worth paying that little bit extra to experience this. A top class day out and I highly recommend a visit.

Best Golf Course in New Orleans

I had the opportunity to play this via ClubCorp for a reduced rate and I enjoyed it so much I played it again two days later. I think the course is semi-private so look for Golf Now deals. I played during the week and I finished my rounds in 3 hours. The course was in excellent shape with many fun and challenging holes making each outing a joy. The fairways were in great shape and the greens are fast so be careful with your putts. I played many courses in New Orleans and no other public course came close to the conditions of English Turn. The guys there are awesome from the pro-shop, waiter and bag boys. I look forward to my next outing there. I highly recommend the course.

Best course in NOLA

The course is always in pristine condition! It's a fun yet challenging course that makes you use every shot and club in the bag. Spectauclar course layout and the par 5 15th hole with an island green is just the icing on the cake. This is without a doubt the BEST course in the New Orleans area.
