English Turn Golf & Country Club
About
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.

Great place to play
This was my first time playing at English Turn and was very pleased. The course staff was incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to be helpful. Fairways were in great shape. The greens were in decent shape, but spotty in places. Overall a fantastic outing.
ET
Greens need some work. I played here in April and course was in very good shape. Today there were at least 6 greens with some bad spots. Some of the greens had crab grass advancing on edges. Overall a very good course and very challenging. Fairways were great. A few tee boxes a little scruffy.
Wonderful Course & Facilities
To be honest, English Turn is one of my favorite courses but i have seen it in better condition. The greens had been treated and had many dead spots. For May 28th, I was expecting better.
Meh
Cool concept. Generally unfriendly staff outside of the golf pro and the starter. Green were unplayable for the price. Fun difficult layout.
Needs work on greens
Overall, it was a good course for the price probably would not play again for the distance from my house
Great course
Course is very well maintained. Has water along nearly every hole. Nice greens. Challenging but fun course
Greens just punched
Great course I usually play there 5-6 times a year
But the greens were punched and sanded and not rolled so putting was not possible, little mounds
If I know I would of not played for the full price
From the time we met the assistant pro, it was a most enjoyable day. James the starter was extremely pleasant and helpful. The greens ware fast but rolled true. I look forward to returning in the near future.
Golf at English Turn
The course is great, and all there were friendly and helpful.
James, the Starter, was excellent. Gave us all of the info and tips, and then got us to take a picture of our group since we had not played there before.
We would definitely go back there for more golf!
Fun course
This was my first time out here, and I was impressed. Got the round half off through a hotdeal on Golfnow. Check in was easy, and one of the staff members gave me a quick tour of the facilities. Course was in good shape, greens were pretty quick. You can tell they are trying to get the course in perfect shape. I'd give it a 4.5 on the rating.
Course was good
The pace of play and the layout of the course were great. The greens are not quite what I would have expected a top level course to be, but that may have been due to being early in the season.
Great Value - Great Course
Course was priced adequately in comparison to other courses in the area based on what you get. Each hole is different, making the course memorable and fun for every tee shot and approach. Greens are designed in an extremely challenging way (very long and narrow) on some holes which is unique to any course in the New Orleans area. Jack Nicklaus did a very good job with the design and I would definitely play again.
4.5 stars
Our ranger and greater was jamest. He was amazing and insisted my father and I get a picture together as it was our first time there .
The course was dry but was overall impressed with the challenging but fair design of the course.
The clubhouse and amenities are in need of some updating and were probably thriving in the 90's.
Our rental clubs were brand new TaylorMade and it was nice to have a choice of multiple brands.
Considering our round deal price was $70 I think it was an EXCELLENT value and we had a great time. I've played the city course and was not impressed, I think this is the perfect place for golfers visiting new Orleans who want to play the best course possible without paying the outrageous price of TPC LOUISIANA.
Would definitely play again
