Good budget course

Narrow fairways and small, hard greens. Consistent playing surface(mostly). I believe it was a total of 4 par 3’s, which was nice. Range was very basic. We had a few groups stacked up, which isn’t great but everyone followed etiquette. Overall great experience.

Joe Bart

One of the nicer public course in New Orleans East area. Today the course was excellent, however the pace of play was poor due too a lot of group of fours who are beginners of the game. I understand we all want to have fun and enjoy the weather and the course. However, they were taking too long just to tee off. Course was great though

Golf Carts

They let some groups have carts to themselves, even 2 some groups that teed off after us. We had to share. The group after us was younger and still had a cart to Themselves. The cart path rule isn't always followed. Some ride the carts right up to the side of the greens.

Beautiful course for the public.!! Be fair to all...
