English Turn Golf & Country Club

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.

We played this course via Hot Deal, and for the value, it's one of the better courses I've had the chance to play. The greens were excellent.

Golf course is in excellent condition and we purchased our green fees online for $30. An amazing value! Beautiful day and golf course.

The course is in great shape and I can't wait until July 15th to play my next round.

Excellent value, course is in great shape!!!
The only improvement could be adding some sand to the bunkers.....

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.

Beautiful grounds, huge club house, great practice facility. I paid $50 for my round on a weekday afternoon. Was like being a member of a really nice country club for the day. Course is lined with beautiful properties, including Emeril Lagasse's. Also, PGA tour used to stop there before TPC New Orleans.

Love playing this course. Only down side is the best deals or on weekdays, so looking forward to another holiday or vacation day. The Zurich classic used to be played there which should give some indication of the play-ability. Love the island green hole, it'll raise the hair on your neck.

I had a great time, I play as a single but I got paired with a nice member.

Water comes into play on every hole. Hundreds of sands traps and lots of waste bunkers that are not user friendly. I love this course, toughest course I've ever played. This course is not for beginners!

A little expensive for the area. Course in good condition, staff friendly and helpful. No directional signage, so though to tell where next hole is. I played as a single, behind two foresomes...not a good call. They graciously let me through and pace was great after that, felt like my own private course. Beautiful area and course.

I've never played a golf course that didn't mark there tee boxes! I figured it out but could have been easier. Also the course was not available on sky caddie and they have no gps on the carts even though their set up for it. Could not get the guy in the pro shop to hook me up with anyone, so played alone kinda boring. Course was very beautiful and in great shape so go play it if you get the chance. Very beautiful homes around the course and water on every hole with alligators so beware!

Played here for the first time. The driving range and practice areas were great. The clubhouse is very nice and the staff was helpful and friendly. The course was in very good condition with the exception of the green speeds. The greens were painfully slow. I have played a lot of courses all over the Southeast and have never observed greens at a course this nice and expensive roll that slow. They were healthy, just extremely hairy and slow. I know weather is a huge factor and perhaps they were not able to roll and/or mowed them for some reason. But it was extremely disappointing to pay over $100 for a round, expect a first class course, and have to absolutely hammer 15 foot putts to get them to the hole.

Ive played alot of courses all over louisiana, mississippi, and alabama. This was my first time playing a golf course that had changed from private to semi private. Not sure if all courses like this are the same but this place felt odd. Course was great. Was extremely wet from the previous few days of rain and still played well. Course had some nice holes. The problem was that if you weren't a member they let you know by the way they talked. We were shadowed the whole round. They tried to hide it but we caught on mid ways through the round. We booked through golf now so every time they asked a question or talked to us we were reffered to as "golf now guys." I heard that phrase at least 10 times that day. You can tell you are not wanted there at the course but they need your money to keep it up. Every thing else about the place was great. I may have had a one time bad experience but next time i will be weary and will pay attention to things like this. Hopefully, It was just one bad day.

Still the all time best course in NOLA in my opinion. One of the older courses where thought and creativity was part of the design, not just making it 7,000 yds. Gotta love English Turn.

Great course!!! Will play here many more times. Very friendly staff and great practice area

great couse; very tough, used to host the local PGA event. Tiny greens.

My wife and I played English Turn for the first time. The course was in very good condition; the greens smooth and very fast. Course demands accurate tee shots on many holes, but not unreasonably so. Overall a very pleasant experience except for the pace of play, but that wasn't the course management's fault--just very slow golfers.

I played three courses in the area this week and English Turn was by far my favorite. If I am ever back in the NOLA area I will play every round here. The Golf Now discount was great when compared with the regular non resident rate. I was paired with some nice local members. This was helpful as they shared their course knowledge with me.

Kudos to the GM who spent extra time regaling us with local vibe and sports chat. With a cigar and cocktail it was a perfect cap to a great day of golf! Have played this course twice on two different visits to NO I'll definitely have it on the schedule for the next visit.
