Local knowledge checking golfer reports…
Prison View Golf Course occupies genuinely unusual territory in American golf — a registered facility on the grounds of Angola State Penitentiary, the Louisiana State Penitentiary near Simmesport in Pointe Coupee Parish. Inmates assist with course maintenance, and the facility draws visitors curious about this one-of-a-kind intersection of correctional institution and leisure sport. The setting in central Louisiana's flat river country is as distinctive as the backstory. Year-round subtropical conditions keep the course playable every month. Few golf rounds anywhere come with comparable conversation material.
