About
Situated just 25 minutes outside of New Orleans, Oak Harbor Golf Club is one of the area's most popular courses. The course is a challenging test without being too intimidating for beginners. It offers risk-reward holes that will appeal to low and high handicappers alike. Lee Schmidt, who worked closely with Pete Dye, designed the golf course, and incorporated many of Dye's signature features into the design. Sculpted mounding and native grasses frame the generous landing areas and you'll even find Dye's trademark railroad ties framing the greens. There are also several lakes that come into play throughout. Oak Harbor Golf Club's seventh and 15th holes are particularly notable for their intimidating tee shots over water. If you strategize carefully, the four par 5s provide some birdie opportunities but you'll have to carefully navigate through a combination of water, traps, and undulations.

Golfer Reviews
Golf Now-Hot Deal
The staff were friendly and helpful just as if we had paid the full price. The Driving Range and puttiing green were in great shape. The traps were being renovated but over all the course was in great shape. My son and I had a great day of golf. Finished off with seafood platter at Southside cafe. Wonderful way to spend the day.
ITs a good day
The course was in good shape, greens rolled true, a 4-some let me and my partner play through and then it was smooth sailing. Wind can make for some difficult driving off the tee, but overall a really good course for the price.
Decent for the price
Course was under some rough conditions but greens were decent. Not bad for a time out. Was sent out behind a tournament that was extremely slow. Kept going back a hole and replaying. Will play again.
Played after a Louisiana monsoon
it is very possible the course is better maintained in fair weather conditions. The fairways and tee boxes weren't great by any means. Sand traps did not look maintained. That all being said the greens were surprisingly very well kept. No cart girls. So I am sure you can BYOB. Very challenging design. Seems like water hazards on every hole.
