Santa Maria Golf Club

Great layout played here many times. This year has been a little rough but bunkers have improved. Greens were pinched sure they'll be great as always. The course just doesn't handle rain very well in part to run off from development. Also the Canadian geese that have taken up residence are a disgusting nuisance. There is literally goose fecal matter everywhere. Tee boxes, greens, all over. On the eigth fairway I found it completely covered with goose feces and feathers from 120 to 50 yards in. Absolutely disgusting and just a shame. Quit after 9.

I have played here before. My only complaint was that the greens and some tee boxes had been punched and sanded. This course however, is one of my favorite courses here in Baton Rouge. The layout is awesome and challenging . Pace of play has always been good. The facility offers 2 putting areas, chipping green with sandbox and a driving range. The staff is very friendly and it is a pleasant course to play.

Santa Maria is my favorite BREC course. It is consistently in great shape and the staff is friendly and accommodating. With elevated greens, plenty of water and large bunkers this course offers plenty of opportunity to get into trouble. I have played Santa Maria for over twenty years and have rarely been disappointed with the condition. This course is a must play if you are visiting B.R. Look for a Hot Deal on GolfNow as green fees can be a little pricy on Saturday and Sunday mornings but they do offer a senior citizen discount.

Great condition, great staff. I had the second tee time and the staff was very nice and let me play by myself. Course was wonderful as usual. Joined up with a retired electrician at the turn and really enjoyed playing golf with this gentlemen, he added to the overall experience.

Our round on Sunday afternoon was a bargain. The course was tough but playable from the middle tees. Greens were quick but true. Course conditions were good but -- this is the case with other Baton Rouge courses, too -- the traps needed more sand. Some were rock hard. Great golf experience.

This is a great public course. This course takes a lot of abuse and some how they keep it it great shape. My round was great only negative thing about it was the greens were punched recently and was not back in great shape yet. Great layout

enjoyed playing the course and will probably play again

The greens are still recovering from winter dormancy but we're still very puttable. The only downer is the sand in several bunkers is only about a half inch on top of clay.....almost impossible to get out of. Other than that the fairways are in good shape, wide with just a few tree obstructions and are laid out well. All in all a good experience which would bring me back again.

Course is in good shape. Yardage markers are few and far between so bring your range finder. Nice layout and course design. Would definitely play again. Excellent value.

Walked the first nine and road the second nine. Played as a single since the two some and three some preferred playing together. Nice fast greens. Tee's good for a public course. Most fairways were great. Played Friday when many LSU students are playing.

What a gem - a Robert Trent Jones municipal! The staff here was killer! The course is somewhat challenging and fun to play. I played while visiting family and beating the winter blues and am looking forward to playing it again soon!

Course is having a hard time recovering from the flood. Ton of people out on a beautiful spring saturday. Pace was slow to average. But the course is not a 60$ green fee course given the shape it is in right now.

Good Value for the Money, Great Course Layout. Lots of local knowledge in players, which is useful. The pace of play was good in the morning...when we finished, it looked to be backed up. Some bare lies, but the GREENS ROLLED TRUIE!
