Golf Course Coming to Lafourche Parish
Golf Course Coming to Lafourche Parish

La Tour is the name of the newest locally owned, master planned, Golf Course / Development Community planned for Lafourche Parish. The plans have recently been approved by the United State Corps of Engineers and construction is underway. La Tour is located along Louisiana Highway 308 and two miles south of U.S. Highway 90 – Future Interstate 49. General Partner, John Brady, says “Most of my life has been about golf and I have been dreaming and planning this golf course for many years. I am looking forward to finally building the course that we have been discussing and dreaming about over the last several years with David Toms and Ken Morgan.”

Coming off a great year on the PGA Tour, Louisiana Professional David Toms, in association with Ken Morgan of Morgan Golf Design, has designed an 19-hole Public Course, which will be over 7,100 yards long. “This golf course has been planned as a signature design from the beginning. I am very excited to come back to Louisiana to play La Tour and be a part of the recovery process in Louisiana, “ says David Toms. Designed with the everyday golfer in mind, the golf course will be enjoyable for all skill levels, using a mix of shot values to create a challenging, enjoyable and memorable golfing experience. “Being a part of this golf course has been an honor and privilege because John Brady always does things first class” says Ken Morgan of Morgan Gold Design.

 

There will be a residential community winding throughout the course, which will include over 500 lots. The residential lots will be varied in size and will also include Town Houses and Condominium space. There will also be a commercial development, known as “Les Shoppes of La Tour,” located in the front of the property immediately off of Louisiana Highway 308. Tenants who are interested should contact them soon.

 

Target date for opening the course will be the Spring of 2008.
