Course Report
Golf Digest named Squire Creek the No. 1 golf course in Louisiana and the fifth best new private course nationally upon opening. It regularly hosts college and amateur championships and is frequented by notable celebrities.
About
Squire Creek Country Club in Choudrant, Louisiana, is a Tom Fazio-designed private course recognized as the top-ranked golf course in the state by Golf Digest. Opened in 2002, this 7,105-yard, par-72 layout offers rolling hills, pine trees, immaculate landscaping, and a modern 40,000-square-foot clubhouse. It serves as the home course for Louisiana Tech and hosts multiple prestigious amateur tournaments.
Caddie Tip
Position is everything. Keep drives in play and avoid aggressive lines off the tee. Fazio’s design puts a premium on approach angles into greens and subtle elevation changes, so favor the wide sides of fairways, check pin locations, and don’t short-side yourself on approaches or chips.
The Main Challenge
Squire Creek’s challenge comes from its demanding tee shots, subtle undulation, hefty bunkers, and small, well-defended greens. Proper club selection and shot placement are required on nearly every hole, especially with frequent crosswinds and water hazards lurking on the back nine.
The Good
Golfers rave about immaculate conditions, sprawling bunkering, and Tom Fazio’s seamless use of native elevation changes. The course offers a tranquil, exclusive experience and an impressive finishing stretch, while the grand clubhouse and attentive staff make for a luxurious club atmosphere.
The Not So Good
Some members mention that summer heat and humidity can impact late-season turf quality. Others wish for better drainage in low-lying areas after heavy rains and more creative culinary options given the prestige and fees of the club.
Signature Hole:
#
18
The par-4 18th at Squire Creek is a demanding finishing hole framed by pines and sculpted bunkers. Players drive toward a sweeping fairway that doglegs left, with approach shots into a deeply bunkered green that slopes subtly from back to front. The hole plays uphill and often into the prevailing wind, providing a fitting, challenging finish to any round.
Clubhouse
The 40,000 sq. ft. clubhouse includes a restaurant, bar, pro shop, locker rooms, fitness center, tennis facility, event space, and guest suites. Members enjoy a full-service, luxurious amenity lineup and community events throughout the year.
Practice Facilities
Squire Creek features an expansive driving range, large chipping and putting greens, and multiple target short game areas. The practice settings mirror the conditioning of the main course and offer plenty of space for lessons, warming up, or working on every part of your game.
