Great fairways and good tee boxes, HORRIBLE greens

I’ve played this course many times through the years, and it is my favorite layout in the area, but they have absolutely lost their greens. They are unplayable. Such a shame because everything else is top notch. Food, service, etc is first class.

First Time Playing

Had a great time.

Everything was great. The course is beautiful and roomy. I do feel the greens could be better maintained. They had a lot of weeds, or crab grass? I’m not sure what’s it called. Other than that this place is awesome.

Greens are not good at all. Course should lower green fees until issues with greens get fixed.

Good layout, bad geeens

I liked the layout of the course. Alot of the bunkers have been turned into grass. The bunkers that were still sand were not well maintained at all. The greens were very bad with alot of bare spots. They were also some weird type of weeds all over every green.

Worst greens I've ever played

I played here for the first time in 7 years. I paid $45 and could not regret it more. That was the Hot deal even. Every single green is absolute garbage. The rest of the course not so bad. Fairways, tee boxes in decent condition., but the greens are the most atrocious thing I've ever seen on a golf course that wants 50 bucks on a weekday for the regular rate.

ABSOLUTE GARBAGE

THE GREENS ARE CRAB GRASS (50%) You would be better off paying $20 at another public course. This course will probably closed in two years. The ball bounces up and down when you putt.

If you like putting on crab grass

This course is going to crap. We played two holes and went home. The greens are in the worst shape you ever seen. There are $20 courses that have better greens in them this place. Either shut it down or fix the greens. It was embarrassment. After the day, I decided to join the form, tired of wasting money on courses like this

Horrible

Paid $50 on golfnow each. Was told there were no one in front of us. Not only there were groups in front, plus several others pass us up to jump in front. Greens Amare the worst I have ever played, completely unplayable . The only good thing I can say that I think the restaurant is nice. Left after 2 holes. Was told could not get refund because it was on golf now. Will reconsider when using golfnow.

Great course, Great Folks, Some rough greens.

This is the 3rd time I've played Atchafalaya and I'll keep visiting it every 6 months or so. A great track with an awesome layout. Only complaint I have is that the greens are a bit challenging with the poor grass condition, bare spots, and what appears to be weed infestation. A couple putts were going great until kicked off track by some weed nubs or dirt lumps. I was still able to break 100, so I'm not gonna complain too loudly, just sharing experience.

Greens in terrible condition

Could be a great course with a good layout, but conditions are quite terrible. It may be related to recent weather but I don’t think I will be returning anytime soon

A Fading Favorite: Great Design, Declining Conditions

This course has always had one of my favorite layouts to play—challenging yet fair, with a really enjoyable variety of holes. Unfortunately, the conditions have noticeably declined over the past year or two, and it's becoming harder to overlook.

The biggest issue right now is the greens. They're in rough shape—patchy, slow, and inconsistent—which really takes away from the overall experience. It’s disappointing, because this used to be a course known for being well-maintained across the board.

If the greens were brought back to form, this might honestly be the only course I'd want to play. The design is that good. But until then, it's tough to justify coming out as often. Hoping to see it bounce, because it deserves better.
