LaTour Golf Club

Course was brown, but the greens have held up fairly well through the winter. There’s some goat grass popping up which should be taken care of.Should be excellent in a few weeks.

When it comes to public courses, there aren't many good options in the area. Luckily we have La Tour. The course is a lot of fun and is a bit challenging. No. 5 is a bear, par 4 that plays 471 from the blue tees. It is a links course and the wind is always a challenging and lots of water. Not many amenities but a club house is currently under construction. The driving range could be better. The hitting area is in good shape, but they need to add yardage markers. It is a great deal for the experience.

Absolutely great place to play. Near the top of the list of all courses in the area, and the price is phenomenal! Great practice facilities! Love this course!

I think the course has a great layout and is maintained at a high level. The staff are very cordial and helpful. My only concern was the speed of the greens. They were so hard and fast that 3 putts were inevitable and chips and pitches were not holding. The fairways were very tight as well and drives would run forever. Playing out of the rough was easier at times. I think that is probably a seasonal issue. It’s definitely a course I will play again with a Golf Now hot deal. I think there are courses around, within a 40 mile radius, that are better and whose fees are more reasonable.

The course is in great condition! Fairway are so consistent, bunkers have been re-imagined and I love it. Greens are super fast, seemed to be rolling at a 12+. Easily my favorite course in South Louisiana

I just think it’s a little bit pricey if you could stay under that $50 mark, you will draw more of a crowd

This is my first time playing here and I was generally pleased. However, the pace of play was atrocious. I played as a single and caught up to a twosome on hole 5. Due to the fact there was no Marshall there was no opportunity for them to be told to speed up and they were not smart enough to let me play through even though I rolled up right behind them and asked if they would mind if I played through with absolutely no acknowledgement so I pulled back and just waited on every hole after that. It was so bad that another twosome caught up to me on hole 10. Here’s why I was truly annoyed there was a twosome ahead of them they caught up to and did not join. This would have opened up the spread between groups a bit more. On hole 12 another group caught up to us so now there were essentially three groups waiting for this group and they just dint figure it out.

The conditions were very nice. The sand was fluffy and soft not something I was expecting. My only negative comment here is to get new rakes because I am still pulling fiberglass splinters from my non-glove wearing hand. The greens were very nicely maintained but I could tell the group ahead of me didn’t comprehend fixing pitch marks as I was consistently fixing their marks, and I knew this because I was fixing marks based on where they were putting from. Fairways were in fantastic condition as well.

My last comment will be to address that there is no blocks from the consistent breeze / winds. Overall there is not much cover as this is a very wide open course. There was also no food or drinks so this is the only course I have been to in quite some time that BYO is authorized and encouraged. There is no beverage cart either.

Got a deal on golf now. So got together with my two sons. We had a great day of golf and bonding. Corse has some challenges to make fun.

Great course with outstanding greens! This is my son and i’s go to for most of our play! Recommend for everyone!

One of my favorite golf courses in Louisiana! Hidden gem in the state. Even though they took a lot of the bunkers out of play and filled them in, it’s still a good course! Would play it any day!

I live and play in Central FL. I put LaTour up against any of the courses I play for conditions and cost. I wish o lived closer because I would play LaTour all the time!!!

Course is in great shape as it always is. Staff was great and always are. One of my favorite courses in the area. I would be a member, but its a little too expensive.
