Not so bad as other reviews

Best price in the area. While the tee boxes and some areas of the fairways weren't in great condition, the greens putted nice and 90% of the fairways were fine. Enjoyed the layout. Typical house lined fairways. Would not say it was too tight.

Nice greens

Nice layout if you're looking to sharpen your irons. All par threes except for four par fours and two parts fives. Fairways and greens in great shape but sand traps are not up to par. Not enough sand in bunkers. Some places it's like playing off dirt. Water comes into play on many holes. Beautiful park like area with majestic oaks surrounding the course. Sad to see the price hike. Used to be a great deal to play in the afternoons.

Beautiful

Great greens with a good amount of slope made putting a fun challenge. Fairway bunkers on most holes. Water comes into play on several holes but not too difficult forced carries. Tough rough so you have to stay in the fairways. Surely one of the nicest courses in the area.

Fun course, terrible sand traps

I really like the course with so many par 3s to test my iron game. The place is beautiful with majestic oaks lining the course, water hazards nicely positioned on several holes, and great course condions. Except for the sand, I mean dirt traps. They were full of grass or water or packed down sand. Greens were nice with good speed and a good amount of movement, but not too much.

Hilly course

Friendly staff. Hilly course with several blind shots. Nice greens with tricky slopes. Saw a few deer. Sand traps awful. Worth the price.

Great staff, course and pace of play

Staff couldn't be nicer. Beautiful course layout with homes not too close to fairways. Water comes into play on a few holes but not difficult to maneuver. Challenging course with fairway bunkers on most holes. Par threes were great. Good sand in bunkers. Greens were not sloped too severly but had movement in them and were on the fast side. You won't be disappointing with this one.

Disappointing

Grass in fairways still dormant, and greens had been sanded, so the course wasn't at it's best. Greens are very small and raised, so difficult to hold. Course is in poor condition and needs maintenance. Course is historic, so I wanted to check it out. Other courses in the area may cost a bit more, but worth it.

Slow play

Without warning, coming off the ninth hole, noticed several groups teeing off in front of me on number ten. After asking around, found out the front nine was being closed for a tournament.
Staff should have mentioned this when I first got there. Call ahead before reserving a tee time.

Somebody is putting money into this course. Greens were great. New bunkers and grass around some holes. Challenging course with narrow fairways and water in spots. Will play again.

Nice layout, friendly staff

Greens in good shape with better than average speed. Nice variety of holes. Not too long to walk. Water comes into play but not too severe. Very friendly staff with the nicest cart girl in town. Good test of golf. Not too close to town so easy to get to.

Nice layout, slooooow greens

Even though I did not see any puddles, they have not cut the grass in a while.
Fairway grass height was like playing out of the rough.
Greens were so slow that they were not really puttable.
Wait till things dry out.

Enjoyable round

Friendly staff. Played midday during the week. Course only had a few groups out. Very good pace of play. Greens were in average condition with a lot of slope but not too severe. Water comes into play on several holes and fairway bunkers are in strategic positions so watch your map.Nice mix of long and short holes. Medium to narrow fairways with homes along outer perimeter of course. Would recommend. Great value.

Great experience

The staff couldn't have been nicer. Great practice range with FREE balls! Very challenging course. A lot of sand and water comes into play. Glad I had my phone app so I could see hole routing. No maps on the score card or tee. Greens very fast. Look like they had been rolled. If you want to play a tour like course, this is it.

Great for an afternoon round

Course was in above average condition. Greens have subtle movement and were in very good shape. Nice bunkers and water comes into play on several holes, but not extreme. Staff very friendly. Looks like regulars play in the mornings so your best bet for a good paced round is in the afternoon.

Beautiful

Great golf in a beautiful setting. Above average condition with water coming into play on several holes. Some deep sand bunkers and greens that have slops that can be a challenge to read. A must play in New Orleans and since this is an executive course, it can be played in less time than a regular course. Nice if you're on vacation and want to slip away for a few hours. Audubon Zoo is just across Magazine Street.

Forced to play with other players with no one in sight on course.

I play just about every week on Golf Now courses and this was the first time I have ever been forced to play with another Golf Now player. I could understand if the course was crowded, like on a Saturday morning. But this was noon on a Tuesday. There was no one else around. Played 18 holes and saw maybe three other groups.

Greens were not in the best shape. A lot of bare areas. Sand bunkers are rough around edges with over grown grass. Nice tight course with houses along fairways. Water on all but one hole and usually hidden from view on the tee box. Good selection of long and short holes. Hit it straight or bring plenty of balls.

Very friendly staff. Well maintained course.

I've played several rounds and the staff is always very friendly.
Course was renovated several years ago and is in great shape.This course drains well. Which is important because In southern Louisiana we often get periods of heavy rain. Greens are in nice shape and roll well. Bunkers are well placed and well maintained also. Water comes into play on several holes but not extremely difficult. Closer to the lake than downtown New Orleans, but not too far. Pace of play may be a bit slower than average because it's the best public course in the area, but not overcrowded.

Great course for a quick 18

Booked a tee time to play 18 holes on vacation while the wife's went shopping. Was able to easily fit in a morning round. Pace of play was great with not many people on the course. Staff was VERY friendly and most helpful with fitting in an extra player. Course was in better than average condition. Greens had signs of being aerated, but rolled very nice. Even though most of the holes are par threes, they were pretty challenging. Course would be nice for low or high handicappers.

After over a week of heavy rain in the area, I was amazed at the condition of the course. Fairways and greens were very nice. Greens were the best I have played in a while. Very fast with good movement. Friendly staff. Overall a great experience.
