Needs attention

Great layout, course needs some TLC.

Fairway grass is sparse, some tee areas are pretty bad, they've punched them but unplayable. Most greens were in pretty good shape but super slow, a few need a lot of work.. They've been working on bunkers and most are good, hopefully they'll start concentrating on the rest of the course. I'll try again in a few months to see if it's progressed. It's a really fun course to play.

Tough & Fun

The layout is amazing, as are the people you meet and the staff. The course was not the best I have ever seen it but with a strange wonter it's expected. All bunkers have been renovated, fairways are in great shape and they have unique tee markers. Only issue was some of the back tee boxes (tips) had no grass but they are in a location with a lot of shade so the cold killed the grass. One of the toughest golf courses in the state of Louisiana but if you play the correct tees it can be rewarding and fun. Recently did a video you can see on Facebook @GOLFNOLA.

Great, fun course

Great course, fun by challenging. Work continues on the sand traps. Would be nice if players would rake the traps and repair both divots and ball marks on greens.

I find the restaurant is great, when open to the public. They close anytime there is a special event. Would like to see the restaurant open to the public when the course is open.
