About this course
The Country Club at Golden Nugget is a golf course adjoining the Golden Nugget casino resort in Lake Charles, Louisiana, set along bayou terrain with native marsh landscaping bordering several holes. It was designed by California architect Todd Eckenrode of Origins Golf Design and opened in 2015.
The course plays to a par of 72 across 18 holes with Bermuda greens and fairways, stretching to roughly 7,000 yards from the back tees, and it is known for coastal winds off the nearby Gulf of Mexico that add to the challenge.
The course operates as part of the resort and is open to hotel guests as well as the public, with tee times bookable through the resort's golf shop and a clubhouse that includes a Chart House restaurant.

Mallard Cove Golf Course
Lake Charles, LA · 3.9 mi away
Mallard Cove Golf Course was a municipal golf course in Lake Charles, Louisiana, owned and operated by the city on land later transferred to Chennault International Airport. In 2021 the city completed the transfer of the Mallard Cove property to Chennault, ending the original course's operation, and as part of the exchange the city built a new course, Mallard Golf Club, at a separate McNeese Street-area site designed by architect Jeff Blume. Mallard Cove itself, at its original location, is no longer an operating golf course.
