Contraband Bayou Golf Club At L'Auberge Du Lac

Love the GPS in the carts

We had no idea what type of course we would find in Lake Charles, LA but were totally impressed with Contraband Bayou Golf Club.

The staff was extremely friendly upon arrival and throughout the entire day. Kudos to all of them from the young men at Bag drop, starter, pro shop staff and beverage cart girls….yes they had a beverage cart available for the entire round, actually two of them which was a welcomed surprise.

The course was in impeccable shape. Greens were in very good shape and true albeit a little slow but that was due to days of rain that week. Great pace of play all day long and that helped make the round even more pleasurable.

As we are attempting to complete playing at least one round of golf in each of the 50 states, my wife and I are very proud to place Contraband Bayou as the Louisiana representative. The price may be a little high for some but you do get what you pay for at this course.

Worth the trip and money. Look forward to playing there again

This course is a blast and fun for all levels I love Fazio courses. A must play in Lske Charles.

this is a great course for a beginner to an advanced golfer. Its a playable course that offers a challenge to every level of golfer. The course was in great condition and the greens were rolling great. Look for hot deals on this course, its worth it.

Course is always in good shape and usually not too crowded but other than on the first tee you never see a marshal. The last couple of times we played the course, it has bunched up and got really slow. There were plenty of open holes but no marshal to break up the jam. Ruins the round.

The young lady at the club house service desk was very personable and professional. Your Starter Gary was extremely friendly and accommodating making my round more enjoyable. Greens were over seeded so a bit slow and spongy but rolled pretty true given that. Wide fairways and sufficient tees accommodate the range of handicaps you must get. Thoroughly enjoyed the round even in a 15 MPH+ wind.

this course was in pretty good condition considering the weather had been horrible for the last 3 days and a large golf outing prior to our play. but the biggest accolade I have for this course has to be for the entire staff here, especially for the manager Jenny F. we were hungry before the round and so asked what they had and since they don't have a place for hot food at the clubhouse she just asked us what we were in the mood for and picked it up from a restaurant in the casino while we warmed up on the range. I saw them treat everyone there with the same backbreaking courtesy. very impressed and will definitely be playing here again when we come back.

YOU WILL ENJOY THIS GREAT LAYOUT AND BESIDES THAT THE AWESOME AFFORDABLE PRICING , BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO PLAY SMART SO ENJOY YOUR ROUND AND HAVE LUNCH ACROSS THE STREET AT LU'BERGE CASINO OR THEIR AWESOME BUFFET SO MAKE A DAY OF IT GUY'S ENJOY !

great golf course especially with a deal 25$ to play before noon.

Was wet and wintery but enjoyable. Course is well designed and even though you're in the middle of activity, the course feels isolated or well buffered.
Fazio did a lot with a smallish tract.

Course was soggy still played excellent minimum number other golfers good golf course

I have played this course several times, and each time it presents a different challenge. Today, it was the wet conditions. The Lake Charles area has been pounded with rain, and the course was showing it. The superintendent should be applauded for being able to keep the course open. Played a tee box up, due to the conditions. Had a great round with my wife and second best friend.

Awesome staff, awesome condition, awesome pace of play. Great value here on Golf Now. Thoroughly enjoyed our round.

I love this course from beginning to end. This course is very average golfer friendly. the greens are wide and fast. I recommend anyone in the Lake Charles, LA area to visit this course, you will be glad you did.

I played this course twice in 2 weeks! I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. My buddies and I agreed that this course will be Our Friday meeting place.

Drove all the way from Houston,TX The course is better than the casino. Your best bet is on the Contraband Bayou. WATCH FOR GATORS

course was fantastic. Range needed some work but the course itself was great. Greens a tad bit slow could tell they were aerated about 2 weeks ago. Would definitely play again

I played there and the grounds were wet very wet cart path only

I am still a beginner and didn't play that well but this course actually helped because it is mostly very open. The cart was probably the nicest amenity because it had a range finder built in that seemed to work very well. I thought the carts were very impressive. Overall, a nice course and I wouldn't pay full price unless it was a special occasion but if you can find a hot deal on here it is well worth it.
