Golf in Abita Springs

St. Tammany Parish sits north of Lake Pontchartrain in a landscape that feels distinctly different from south Louisiana — piney, elevated slightly, drained by spring-fed streams rather than sluggish bayous. Abita Springs built its identity on artesian water, which now also anchors the regional craft brewery. Golf here benefits from two distinct options: Abita Springs Golf Club provides accessible local play, while Money Hill Golf & Country Club offers a more private, wooded experience set in the longleaf pine corridor. The Northshore draws New Orleans residents seeking terrain and air that differ from the delta flatlands across the lake. Spring and fall are the preferred playing seasons before summer's full subtropical weight descends.
