What is the story on the new restrooms?

look like they have been finished for months yet not yet in service. The port o potties have been removed long ago yet new restrooms have not been placed in service. Also I believe water coolers should have been part of the plan for the new restrooms. I happen to be playing when the water jugs were removed to be refilled so no water for a number of holes, would it make sense to have a extra set of coolers to replace ones in service while others are being refilled, especially when the temperature is in triple digits.

Great course… But

Really great course. Its in great shape and you cant beat the price. But.. the last time i played (July 16th) i was just starting the back 9 and the weather got bad and we were told the course would not be reopening for the day. This was booked through GolfNow and they told us we had to contact them for weather closures. I spoke with someone from GolfNow the following Tuesday and was told they have to contact the course first to confirm they did actually close due to weather and they would get back to me. Almost a month later, August 11th, I finally received a call from GolfNow saying the course reported no closures on the date i played. 1 star to the course for lying about closing and 1 star to GolfNow for letting it go a month. If they didnt do anything for naturally occurring events thats very okay i understand. But reporting you didnt close after we were asked to leave isnt cool.

Always great greens.

Always consistent and good. They had a little problem and some of fish died . So it smelled a little. Don't let that stop you from playing here!

Great Find!

Looking for a course to play on a hot day in New Orleans, and we couldn't have been any more pleased! The course needed water, but the layout was great, and we were able to complete our round in three hours. The very best part of the course was the Munch Factory restaurant on-site. Beautiful layout, delicious food, and the staff was terrific! I would highly recommend this course for an inexpensive round.

Always good

I have played here many times and am always impressed with course conditions. Greens had recently been verticut and topdressed so they were rolling great. Maybe a little thin but good speed.

I had a great time playing golf

It was a great outing. The pace was good. One piece of advice watch out for the crows. They will come to you unattended cart and fly away with your snacks.
