Greens were great

Second time playing this course, last was a few years ago. Greens were great, but the tees boxes on a few holes had absolutely no grass. I know that there has been unusually low amounts of rain lately, so the fairways were expectedly a little bare and rock hard. Other than that, this is a very fun and challenging course to play. Hard to beat for the price.

Course review

Course was was dry and hard very thin grass in the fairways. Range balls were out at 10 am. before teeing off. Club house was nice but the grill closed at 2 on a Sunday so nothing to eat but cold sandwiches. All in all should have been better for the $.

Hi, Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game, and we will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing The Atchafalaya at Idlewild. We hope to see you again soon.

Windy weather

BARELY ANY GRASS IN THE FAIRWAYS AND DIRT UNDERNEATH IS HARD AS A ROCK. GREAT FOR LONG DRIVES BUT ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE FOR APPROACH SHOTS

My Last Round only because I am moving out of state

Good golf course it could be a True Gem . People at the course are so nice #1 . The Layout is nice- different tee boxes for all kind of players ! The hills and sand traps make you think on every tee box bout your next shot . Nice food in the club house and extra treat ! Only down fall of the course is the fairways need some water to grow grass then it would be a Gem ! Will Miss you guys that I played with over the past few years - you made an ole retired guy feel like home ! If i pass through in the future i will stop and play a round for sure . Later love the course ! I would say its a must play for the Bayou region .

Great course

Course is getting to be in fantastic shape, especially the bunkers. Some greens are in need of a little help but overall it’s a wonderful place for golf.
