In summary

The National Golf Club of Louisiana is praised for its challenging and enjoyable course layout, well-maintained fairways, and friendly staff. Visitors appreciate the club's amenities, including a nice clubhouse and practice facilities. However, some guests have reported issues with the condition of the greens, golf cart maintenance, and service, particularly during larger events, which have led to concerns about management and customer service.

Great course, sand traps were a little rough and greens had some patches but overall it was great. Staff was was extremely friendly and helpful.

After hosting my golf tournament at the National on Saturday, August 16th, it is a must that I share the negative experience. 1. Not one but 3 golf carts experienced malfunctions. (2 flat tires) (1 weak battery) Note that it took some 20-25 minutes for carts to be replaced. Ive been playing golf over 40+ years, never before have 3 carts failed in an event that I've participated in. Lack of ice for the entire golf course. Not the fault of staff. Fault is directed at the management! Much needed customer service skills improvement on behalf of Austin the golf Director and Jaime Perkins, General M…

I would highly discourage anyone from playing here if smooth greens is what you care about. There are little tufts of grass all over the green that make it impossible to get a true roll. Hopefully this goes away by summer, but until then call the course to make sure they’re cleaner. Otherwise, the $50 for twilight would be an okay price for a fun layout and some challenging holes. Fairways are in great condition but bunkers don’t drain too well. Pace of play works out well for the course (4 people all shooting +25 in our group in 4 hrs 15). One of the best practice facilities in the area and a…

Ate at the new Restaurant "The Max". Great food and great service. Have tried the Filet, Seafood Pasta, Crawfish Grilled Cheese and Fried Shrimp... appetizers were Fried Mozzarella and Chicken Wings...all were good. Milk shakes are also good to wrap up the meal.

I participated in an annual golf tournament this past weekend with a group called the Kajun Klassic. We had well over 50 players to participate. Afterwards, all of the golfers (all people of color except one person) were inside the clubhouse ordering food and cooling off among other things. The reason we were cooling off was because the course did not have ice to supply the players on one of the hottest days to play in August. Besides that, while we were all inside laughing and having a good time, one of the waitresses stood on a chair and yelled “If you played in the Kajun Klassic, you need t…

I was there approximately 2 weeks ago with the Kreole Klassic. Golf cart in our group experienced a flat. No ice available at the clubhouse. And after we finished in record heat, the waitress told everyone associated with our group that we had to go outside to eat and drink...after everyone was already inside eating and drinking. (She was lucky no one embarrassed her in the moment.)

Glad to find a decently priced golf course in the area, since the ones in lake Charles are so expensive. Course was nice and didn’t really have any complaints. Probably the most sand bunkers at a course I’ve played, making for a nice challenge.

Last Saturday August 16,2025 during a planned tournament with over 50 players prepaid we were treated like a hindrance to the general manager of this golf course! Post round when returning the some players were literally refused inside service at the clubhouse restaurant THE MAX for no reason whatsoever. We were told by the hostess to GO OUTSIDE like we were a heard of cattle after a 5 hour round in 90 degree heat and humidity! They would not take any orders or be seated by direction of the manager! Post round the tournament coordinator was told that because of us the member couldn’t play as i…

Golf course was great but had an issue at the start with the Marshall, we booked 4 and complained it had 3 on our tee off time then held us up for about 10 minutes complaining then let’s us play. After he complained he proceeded to talk to the guys behind us and complain to them about us which is very unprofessional.

Howard (Doc) Joseph STGA Our group of 100% African American golfers held a tournament at National Golf Course Westlake and were shocked at the discriminatory treatment we received. We were forced to sit outside and denied service inside the clubhouse. This was not only unprofessional but blatantly exclusionary. No paying guests should ever be treated this way. If you value respect, fairness, and equal treatment, think twice before bringing your business here. Management needs to address this immediately.
