4 1/2 stars. Located in Mathews which is about a hour from the French Quarter by car. La Tour Golf course is co designed by David Toms - PGA tour pro and was built in 2009.
The course is pretty much located in the middle of nowhere with the exception of a few newer homes when you enter the track. The clubhouse is a temporary building which was disappointing BC the course itself is a real gem. The course plays just under 7200 yards and has 4 sets of tee boxes. The course is immaculate on the tees, fairways, sand traps and perfect greens. I booked a on line tee time and received a discount and I found out the PGA Zurich qualifier was held here the day before.
Pace of play was great and we finished the round in about four hours with no waiting what so ever. I would definitely recommend playing this course if you're visiting the NOLA area. It's so worth the drive BC it's reasonable and in way better shape vs the courses closer to the city. read more
