Oak Harbor Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
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.

Eh, not great
3 stars at best. Greens are their saving grace. They’re in great shape. But not much else good things to say. Tee boxes are terrible. Extremely sloped and patchy, bunch of dirt. If you play the tips or yellow/red they’re probably in better shape. Tons of patches, weeds, and hazards in the fairways. Bunkers are bad. Rough isn’t any kind of actual rough, it’s just overgrown lawn grass. Centipede or St Augustine. Fringes are okay, but some have a good amount of weeds. Water on almost every single hole, so you may lose some balls if you can’t keep it in the fairway.
Just not worth the $50. Hot deals has some tee times for $25, and I would say that’s pretty fair. All in all, just not a great course.
Best condition in 15 years. greens rolled 9-9.5 on stim and true roll. they were tournament ready. Fairways firm but had plenty of grass turf to hit any shot. Rough was great at 2.5 inches and made it truly rough. All tee boxes [even par 3] good to excellent. Needs rain soon . Starting to show dry spots.
Great course. Nice greens. I think it would be a very different and fun course if they mowed the whole thing like the fairways. It would speed up play and make it very interesting to play
Oak Harbor GC
Fairways were tall but area has had a large amount of rain recently which made for real tough shots. Rain drainage has caused several medium size sink holes that of course several of my drives found. The greens were fabulous, best I have played in the area. Hopefully once weather gets better they can fix things. Great course.
Very good public course…
Needs a little work, rough extremely high but weather has made cutting difficult lately. Overall good shape, greens slow, but true. Staff is wonderful!
Love Oak Harbor but bring lots of balls
Love this course but it will punish you if you are new or mess up your tee shot. Lots of water and tall grass to lose your ball in. Friendly staff, the pace of play was decent. This round was a very hot day, our fault for booking a noon tee time in June. The starter was nice enough to let us start 20 mins early. Still very hot. Had to drink lots of water.
