Reasonable course
This course has a nice layout, by could use a bit of attention. Some areas of most of the greens were not in good shape. The fairways & Tee boxes were ok. I like the course and hope it gets in better condition in the near future.
Good round overall
The round was pleasant. Greens were a bit rough in several spots on each green.
Good Golf
This is one of my regular go-to courses in the New Orleans area. New Orleans only muny, the course sits very near Lake Pontchartrain so the winds can be brutal on occasion. The course was renovated after Hurricane Katrina and reopened for play in late 2011.
This course is not an extremly difficult layout. It is "what you see is what you get" golf. With only a few of forced carries, you can play the ball on the ground for much of this course if you wanted/needed to.
The course gets a lot of play, and pace of play can be an issue here as there are a lot of older golfers here, as well as many relatively new to the game.
Layout is good on the footprint given. Most of the holes are fairly straight, with trees defining the fairways. Flat course without many undulations.
Tee boxes are OK, some could use a little help. Fairways are mostly good. Greens have been less than great this spring, particularly the 3rd and 12th holes where there is little grass on either green. At one time, they had some of the best greens in town, so I hope they come back. Greens have a lean but not many undulations to contend with.
This course is a nice layout and at $38 is a good value for the cost.
IMPORTANT NOTE: BRING CASH! For whatever reason, their credit card machine is broken 95% of the time and there is no ATM on property, so you'll need to pay cash more often than not.
Solid public course
This is one of my favorite New Orleans courses so far! Pretty decent course, easy to find balls in the rough, decent green conditions!
Don’t come here
The course is cash only. In 2025 that is extremely inconvenient. The range balls are absolute garbage. The practice green does not allow chipping so you cannot practice chipping at a pin at all. The greens were quite possibly the worst greens Ive ever played on. Don’t waste your time or money playing here.
Was not informed cash only
I made an online booking with this course, and when I get there they tell me it's cash only. They do not have an ATM machine. I had to miss my tee time, and hopefully not charged anymore money on my card. Poor service. Then you can't get back into the Golf Now app to pay the full amount to keep your reservation.
Greens are beat up
Greens are in much worse shape than the last time I played the course. Lots of dead spots. Rest of the course is in pretty nice shape.
Great value
Course was in good condition for time of year, walking rate of $30 is a great value. Remember to bring cash and that you pay at course, not on this app.
Great layout
The entire staff from cashier, starter ranger, drink lady, and kitchen staff absolutely 💯 👌 👍 great. Looking forward to playing there again
