Tamahka Trails Golf Club meanders through a beautiful 230-acre tract of rolling terrain featuring winding creeks, majestic century-old trees, along with native wildlife providing a sense of seclusion and harmony with nature. The course was designed by award-winning architect Steve Smyers who thoughtfully incorporated the natural features of this picturesque landscape to create one of the best golf courses in Louisiana.
Tamahka Trails’ top-notch practice facility includes 50,000 square feet of hitting area, a 10,000 square-foot putting green and practice greens dedicated to bunker play, chipping and pitching. Beyond the scenic backdrop, you will find everything you would expect from a first-class golf club, including a full-service Clubhouse and Pro Shop. Best of all, it’s just steps away from all of the action at Paragon Casino Resort where you will find exciting slots, table games, live poker, sports betting, 3 hotel towers, dining options, spa/salon, movie theater, child care, shopping, meeting/convention space, and a live alligator habitat.
Paragon’s Tamahka Trails is one of only a handful of courses in the state to be a part of Louisiana’s exclusive Audubon Golf Trail. Audubon Trail courses are selected for their exceptional design and appeal. This challenging 18-hole championship course was selected for its “new school” design based on Scotland’s legendary courses.
Special features include:
• Bunkers featuring beautiful white sand, drainage and natural slopes that flow with the landscape.
• Five sets of tees on each hole offering the perfect option for all skill levels.
• Reshaped and narrowed fairways requiring accuracy off the tee.
• Scenic cart paths with wooden bridges over natural water features optimizing the course’s tranquil setting.
• Iced mango towels & cooling stations located throughout the course.
• Fully-loaded E-Z-GO carts with car charging ports and auto stop/start, ball/club cleaner, cooler, and towels.
• And you can play all day with one all-inclusive rate.
Among other accolades, Tamahka Trails was ranked the #1 Golf Course in Louisiana by both Southern Gaming and Destination Magazine and SkilledGolf.com. And Best Renovation of the Year in 2021 by Golf Digest™ Magazine and Golf Inc.™ Magazine, along with Top 10 Courses in Louisiana by Golf Digest.
