Our Jack Nicklaus Signature Course is an oasis of tranquility
carved in Louisiana’s bayou country and composed of undulating
terrain meandering through pockets of live oak and crape myrtle trees.
This challenging 18-hole, par 72 course is over 7,100 yards long—with
20 green side bunkers completed in 2007 (state-of-the-art in drainage
and sand)—will provide even the biggest golf enthusiast the challenge
they are looking for.
CCLA underwent an extensive renovation project the summer of
2012. The Champion greens were replaced with MiniVerde Ber-
mudagrass to provide a truer putting surface for our members and
their guests. MiniVerde was introduced around 2002 and has proven

recommends MiniVerde for all its southern golf courses. Due to its
reputation and high standards, it was very important to CCLA that
the redesign remained as close to Jack Nicklaus’s original vision as
possible. To maintain Jack Nicklaus’s vision, The Country Club of
Should you require a little
more practice before hitting
the course, extensive practice
facilities are at your disposal,
including: a 10,000 square
foot putting green, practice
green for chipping and sand
trap practice, practice bunker,
and a 300-yard driving range
with 80,000 square feet of tee
surface.

In addition to the course renovations, the original 7,000 sq. foot practice green has been completely upgraded and expanded by 3,000 square feet. CCLA members can also take advantage of a practice bunker and chipping area adjacent to a meticulously cared for 300-yard driving range with over 80,000 square feet of tee surface. The bunkers have also been overhauled, now featuring new bunker fabric so that the bunker faces will be more consistent and easier to exit during play.
