Kinder, Louisiana – Koasati Pines at Coushatta Casino and Resort has once again been rated the #1 course in Louisiana. From its tribal roots to the pristine layout, this course caters to every skill level. With six tee boxes to choose from, golfers can tailor the experience to match their game.
According to General Manager Gordon Poncho, what makes Koasati Pines truly special goes beyond the scorecard.
“Helping build this and being here for this long to me, it brings a lot to my heart,” Poncho said. “Being a tribal member and being a part of this golf course is what makes it special to me.”
Koasati Pines is also home to something unique—a real 19th hole.
“The 19th hole usually at any other golf course is the bar, which is everybody’s favorite,” Poncho joked, “but we actually have a 19th hole, which is our signature island green.”
Yes, you can play it—and even make a friendly wager while you’re at it. From the lush scenery to the island challenge, this course has drawn big names in the golf world, including Tiger Woods, K.J. Choi, and Ted Scott, caddie to PGA champ Scottie Scheffler.
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned player, Head Golf Professional at Koasati Pines, Tim Jaquez, says they’re all about starting with the basics.
“We like to start with the fundamentals with a new golfer,” Jaquez said.
Koasati Pines also plays host to over 100 golf outings per year, often involving 20 or more golfers, where the professional golfer even gets comped as part of the package.
“These guys—or gals—come out, enjoy two or three rounds of golf, have some fun at the resort and casino, it’s just a great time, and that’s what we cater to.”
