Belle Terre Country Club

I checked advisory listed for the course

I was aware of 90 degree cart rule

No mention of the greens being treated

There was as much sand on the greens as there was in the traps

Belle Terre Country Club is not a bad course, but it is not a great course either. I've played here numerous times and every time I play it seems there's one thing or another going on with the course - there's something that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. Today it was inconsistent green speeds and textures. Holes 1-6 were slow and hairy; the rest were faster, including several holes on the back which were almost bare and very slick. However, today, the bunkers featured what I have to say is the best sand I've seen on any course in the area. Unfortunately, this is normally the case at Belle Terre.

In Laplace, LA, a city far enough away from the greater New Orleans area that is feels a world away, it's a solid 20-30 minutes west of downtown normally. It sits in lowlands and has a swampy feel to it, particularly on the front nine. There isn't much movement to the earth and it features mostly push-up greens, several of which were redone a few years back. The back nine feels a bit higher.

There aren't many forced carries. There are just enough areas to bail out or land if you aren't brave enough to make a forced carry.

The last 2 holes are probably their feature holes and both are solid golf holes anywhere. Both par 4's, they are as good a pair of closing holes as you'll find.

One of the questions this questionnaire asks is wold your recommend it to someone. I said yes, but with trepidation. I've been back to play it, so I'm not opposed to the course. Simply saying it's not the best test of golf, and due to it's location, I'd probably not recommend it much. It's more worthwhile to stay closer to town. That said, it's not a bad trip out of town, and I've seen it look pretty nice on occasions.

I did not pay the actual rates as I played this round with my traveling club.

Belle Terre is still one of the area's best courses but some attention needs to paid to the bunkers and greens. While some are up to "par", others make scoring more difficult.

I was really impressed with the conditions of this course. Greens are in great shape. Around the greens look really great as well. Fairway is a little firm and the grass is not quite their yet. I will be returning soon. Staff was very helpful being our first time playing.

Staff was great

Driving range was awesome

Course was great, couple hard spots on fairway

Greens were the best I’ve played in a while

Layout was awesome. Great course

Course improvements have increased overall play experience. Improvements on drainage the most obvious. Fairways could use some additional grass but that should come in with summer. Greens were fine ---hard and mostly fast. The best course in the area. Play there every other week; would play weekly if i could.

Greens were the nicest I’ve seen them in a long time. There have been some good changes going into the course and it can only get better. The $18 green fees are a steal.

Have played Belle Terre quite a few times now and they send to get the course in better shape each time. The greens are on great shape and each hole has it's own challenges. Temp was in the 40's and very windy but course played like a nice summer day. Staff was great and guys in the pro shop are very informative and helpful. Can't wait to go back for another round.

Great course and is in excellent shape, couple of greens had a few spots but overall the course is in fantastic condition. Staff and employees very professional and great attitudes, Can't wait to get back to LaPlace to play again.

The course has a great layout but they are going thru some construction at the moment. Once that is done and they get a few of the greens back into good shape it will be a excellent course. Stan in the club house is top notch and always ready to help. Driving range is in good shape.

The front nine was closed because of the conditions of thier greens, so we had to play the back nine twice. If the condition of the greens on the back nine were any indication, it will be MONTHS before the course is playable. The greens were terrible. I won't be back anytime soon

This course was the one of my favorite but I'm not going there for a while. Greens were terrible, too.

This is an extremely nice course, only thing is that they are undergoing construction at the moment and some of the tee boxes are a little sketchy, also some of the greens are being airrated and not best as of yet. I assume when they are finished with it all that place will be in supurb shape. I can't wait !!!!! Event with all that, it's still a nice place to play a great round of golf !!!!

Nice course with 3 holes under repair uther than that I enjoyed the play.

I have played this course many times and have always been pleased.

On today's round, i expected more of a challenge due to days of rain (usually drains well) and management' investing in continuously improving the course; hence, some construction on a couple of holes. Yet there was still lots of good golf to be had. Fairways cut well with manageable rough. Approaches and greens well maintained; greens were dry and in excellent shape in spite of previous weather. Putts rolled true.

Any other time I would be giving an EXCELLENT rating.

As always, the staff is great and helpful.

The clubhouse has been renovated; food and service are good.

While out on the course the cart girl was there often with great cold drinks and power snacks.

This is easily the best course in the area and worth the short drive i make once or twice a week from New Orleans.

Recommend you check it out for yourself as you will enjoy the experience. Tell George or Stan that Hal highly recommended you for a great golf outing.

This course sucks the condition is pitiful. Had a foursome of old geysers that would not let us play through the whole front nine. Will not be playing here again.
