Great course

Greens and course were in great shape. Could do a touch better on cutting and replacing holes. Quite a few people out golfing so pace of play was s touch slow but understandable.

Need a Range finder and a replay

Tough course to play once and be successful as holes are tight and it is critical to know where to hit the tee shot. Course was in good shape and greens were fast.

Tough Greens

Course was in great shape. Greens were fastest I've ever played though. Made for a difficult but very enjoyable round of golf for a Monday.

Cold start/warmer finish

It was cloudy and cold to start but the sun and wind worked together and the back nine was much better.

The course is in peak playing condition now!!

Best course in on the north shore

This is my home course so this might be a little biased, but I’ve played a lot of courses from Baton Rouge to Slidell and nothing has beat Carter. Greens are the purest around and the layout is challenging yet fun. Most definitely recommend well worth the money. Also driving range is included in price so that’s great plus the chipping green is great and practice green are very true to all greens on course

Pace of play horrible

This is happen multiple times on mondays or Weekends, when they have a special on GolfNow. The pace of play horrible! expect a 4-4 1/2 hour round. The starters don’t know what there doing, on many occasions have been delayed because the starter allowed groups he knew ahead of us. Nobody on the back nine but 6 groups piled up on the first tee. The staff are inexperienced and the starters are clueless. The course is in good condition but certainly not worth waiting every hole for 5-10 mins to tee off. Very disappointed.

I Don’t Recommend

Slept on this before writing this: First time playing this course with my golfing crew, we were looking forward to a fun round of golf! Unfortunately, the marshals and the “pace police” sucked all the fun out of the whole day! First encounter with the red flag cart just a few holes into the round, said we were behind pace (6 minutes to be exact) and told us we had to skip a hole. Not a pleasant interaction, and that continued throughout the round. You will get penalized, that’s right penalized, if you stop for the cart girl or stop at the turn. We paid $300 to enjoy a round of golf, but instead were treated like we were at work. I will say the greens were pretty good, rest of the course was so-so. I don’t write many reviews about anything really, but this ruined what should’ve been a fun day on the the course. Unless you’re a member or a regular, you won’t get the full experience.
