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.

First time in 25 years

James the starter was very informative and friendly. Course received a lot of rain prior to me plating. The rough was thick Bermuda grass. The fairways were good but the greens were in rough shape and slow. Would love to come back if the greens were in better shape.

Despite recent weather , good to be out there

One of the only courses open bc of the continuous rain, and English Turn was in the best condition it could be considering about 8-10 inches in the last week. Got thru 11 before rain came down again, but overall a really nice course and clubhouse and very friendly staff.

Especially friendly and helpful was the starter , James.

Very nice course experience, until….

I played the course last week with my Brother in Law. We were both excited since the courses we wanted to play in Mississippi and Alabama had significantly gone up in price. It had rained early in the morning and the course was listed as cart path only. Since my Brother in Law was recovering from knee surgery and I was diagnosed with cancer, we asked if we could use a handicap flag and play 90 degrees. The Proshop said yes. Even though it had rained, the course dried out very nicely. Everything was fine until about the 13th hole. We came up on a Women’s Scramble Tournament. Our momentum came to a crashing halt. I realize that the Women were probably club members, and they have a right to play. It was the slow play that was bad. They were slower than molasses being poured in winter.

The course is fun to play, just ask who is in front of you when you are in the pro shop.

Nice course with great staff

My wife and I played this course for the first time. The entire staff is very friendly starting with Jared at the pro shop. The cart guys brought a cart to us when we drove in which was very nice. James the starter explained the history of the course and even took pictures for us without us asking.

The course was in great condition except the greens were a little too slow for me. Otherwise, the fairways and tee boxes were in great shape. They had cold water coolers every hole it seemed like and air conditioned bathrooms on the course which was nice because it was very hot and humid when we played.

I will definitely come back again and play this course. Thanks.

Overall nice course

Very slow pace of play, wasn’t notified it’s cash only on the course unless you have a member number. Beautiful scenery, very small greens with some dry dirt patches on the greens. Tough, challenging course with bunkers and water everywhere, good round of golf. Shot normal score in high eighties.

Great First Time

Somewhat friendly clubhouse staff. GREAT starter, he condensed a 30-minute lecture into a 2-minute overview of the course. Fun layout, lots of water and sand. Fairways and greens were great. Worth the cost and I would play there again if I had the chance.
