Southern Trace Country Club is a private 18-hole championship course set among the rolling pines and oak-lined terrain of south Shreveport. Originally designed by Arthur Hills, the layout was remodeled by Jim Lipe in 2020 and is characterized by a quiet natural setting and strategic shot-making demands.
Open since 1988, the club has hosted a range of professional and amateur competitions over the years. More recent renovation work has updated the clubhouse, fitness center, golf practice facilities and family amenities.
Beyond golf, the club offers tennis, a swimming pool and dining, along with a social calendar of member events throughout the year.
