Great Course; Mosquito City
Contraband Bayou is one of my favorite courses to play in Lake Charles. The course is always in great condition, but bring your mosquito spray; otherwise, you will be miserable. If they can control their mosquito problem, I’d play there more often.
Course is mosquito friendly
Nice layout but be careful waking up mosquito’s when you get close to the rough or in sand traps, carts should be equipped with Off spray
Course is in great shape for this time of year
Greens were in good shape and running pretty fast overall. No complaints for tee boxes and fairways either. Overall good round of golf!
One of the best in Louisiana
This a great resort style course. You can have your best round ever or your worst round at any time.
Contraband is a great Tom Fazio course.
I love this course from the layout to the scenic views. Some of the tee boxes were under repair and 3 of the 18 greens were not in the best shape. Other than that, the course was in excellent shape and I throughly enjoyed our round.
Very nice and fun
I really enjoyed this course. It was a good challenge but not too difficult. It's a short walk from Lauburge. The staff was very nice and accomodating.
Up
The course looks like it been run down but they are working on bringing it back to life . No drinking water on the course fairways were good greens were really slow.
Great time
My wife and I had a great time playing this course. It was our first time out there, will definitely go back.
Great course
Better have your A game on. The rough made this course a handfull. Fairways were in excellent shape along with the greens. Rough was a full swing to just get to the ball. Had a great day.
Course condition
The course is in good condition but some tee boxes are under renovation, thus they moved to temporary tee boxes.
Playing Golf saves you Money
My wife and daughter let my Son-in-law and I go for our Birthday to stay at the Golden Nugget casino . I have learned the more Golf I play the more money I save from the casinos .So In 48 hours we played 4 rounds at the Contraband Bayou course next door . It is definitely one of my favorite courses to play . Staff is always friendly ! The course is in good shape right now . They are doing some work on a few tee boxes and have one temporary green but otherwise fairways , bunkers, and traps are all great . One thing I did notice these rounds is the rough was higher which I’m not a fan of . Several times we spent time searching for balls that were difficult to find . On our last round they were cutting it so hopefully they will keep it shorter . It speeds pace of play and definitely makes it more enjoyable for the average golfer to keep the rough shorter . So give Contraband Bayou a try it definitely will save you money being on the course instead of in the Casinos 😂
Greens
Greens were dry and sandy. Two greens were completely lost, burnt.
Good Course
I play this course at least once a week due to the proximity to my house and how empty it is in the evening. Overall, the course is in great shape. They seem to be having some struggles with the heat this summer, though. A few of the tee boxes were just dirt and/or dead grass and some of the greens have pretty big patches on them. One of them was completely brown. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because I think the course is a bit overpriced for the condition and they don’t have any real food. However, I do really appreciate their ice and water stations on course.
