Pro Tip:

Hole 1 is a very simple opening hole with an ample size green without bunkers. Players hitting an aggressive tee shot are rewarded with a birdie opportunity, but tricky slopes on this green makes two putting a challenge from distance.

Hole 2

Pro Tip:

Its tight tee shot and a very small green makes this hole a challenge. Hitting a driver accurately will leave the player with a short second shot and a birdie chance.

  • 332
Hole 3

Pro Tip:

Probably the tightest tee shot in Baton Rouge, make it a good drive on this hole and a precise second shot awaits you with out of bounds and a bunker left. Make a par and leave happy.

Details:

  • 370
  • 362
Hole 4

Pro Tip:

This hole is drivable for the big hitters, but a large oak tree and a pond make it risky. Lots of elevation change and a nice view makes this hole memorable.

Details:

  • 310
  • 242
  • 232
Hole 5

Pro Tip:

More great background viewing awaits on this tough par 3. Navigate the water and pull the right club, and you've got a chance for a 2.

Details:

  • 143
  • 94
  • 87
Hole 6

Pro Tip:

This hole is another fun and drivable short par 4. Water down the right of the fairway and over the green is there to spoil the errant shot.

Details:

  • 262
  • 200
  • 192
Hole 7

Pro Tip:

This is the toughest hole on the course. Rolling hills and a right to left dogleg demand a precise tee shot, ideally a right to left shape. Pull that off and you face another small green protected by sand and water.

Details:

  • 377
  • 363
Hole 8

Pro Tip:

This long uphill par 3 will test even the best players. The tee shot is nearly blind from the back tee adding to the difficulty. 3 is a great score on hole 8.

Details:

  • 205
  • 119
  • 110
Hole 9

Pro Tip:

This short downhill par 3 gives players a chance to end on a high note. Putting is tricky though, as it is the most sloped green on the golf course.

Details:

  • 137
  • 116

About City Park

Built in 1926 and designed by Tom Bendelow, City Park Golf Course is one of 20 courses in the country to be placed on the national register of historic places as the community’s first municipal golf course. This 40 acre, nine-hole course is notable for its natural beauty, mature trees, lake vistas, small bayou, and elevated terrain that varies by as much as 25 feet.

After renovations in 2007, Historic City Park Golf Course now features four par-3 holes and five par-4 holes. A quaint Pro Shop within the Clubhouse that also houses the Baton Rouge Art Gallery, is available to provide you with service and golf supplies.

This course is ideal for a quick round of golf or league play. It’s a different-than-usual venue for south Louisiana, featuring stately oak trees and well defined elevations and hills.

NOTICE: Foot Golf is temporarily closed for repair and upgrade.
