Bayou Oaks City Park North Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Golf has been played at City Park since 1902 when the nine-hole New Orleans Golf Club opened. At the time it was one of only 80 golf courses in the country. There were four 18-hole courses at the complex before it was destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The North Course was rebuilt in 2009 and now there is also a 36-hole mini-golf complex. The course is just over 5,400 yards from the back tees and features water on eight holes. Proper club selection is the key to scoring well on this layout. The golf course is popular among both locals and visitors because it's not only player friendly enough to accommodate all skill levels but its location is also easily accessible from anywhere in New Orleans. The affordable rates make it even more appealing and there's also a 74-stall driving range.

Golf Advisor: Top 25 Most Improved U.S. Golf Courses (2021 #23)
Reviews
Good Course for Game Improvement
Course has a straightforward layout, with open fairways and well kept, flat greens. Bunkers are few but maintained well. Lots of mature trees will force you to hit a lot of low liners when off the fairway. Not challenging, fairly short, but just fine for people trying to improve.
Best Value in Nola
Course in good condition for the value! Really unbeatable in terms of cost around New Orleans. Yet to play Joseph Bartholomew though.
Good course for the money
This is usually a great experience for the money. The staff are friendly, and the course is an interesting layout. This is definitely a good choice in New Orleans if you don't want to pay high greens fees (or drive an hour).
I usually walk, but I got a cart last time I played, and the gps was nice except for one thing... The cart will shut you down for being too close to the green well before you get to the little signs telling carts to get to the path. Seems like you should have to pass that sign before the cart shuts down, so the greens keepers should place the signs further from the green than they currently do. I admit this is a minor annoyance, and doesn't affect my ratings.
Improving
Obviously spending time on improving tee boxes and greens .
Bayou Oaks North Course
Some of the grass around the fairways and greens could be cut a little shorter but for the twilight pricing you can’t beat it !!!
