Carter Plantation

Springfield, LA, United States

Carter Plantation is a David Toms signature golf course located in Springfield, Louisiana, near Baton Rouge. The 18-hole public course is set within a scenic landscape of moss-laden live oaks, towering pines, and cypress trees, offering natural southern Louisiana beauty. The property, originally part of a Spanish land grant, has been developed into a golf community that combines recreational opportunities with resort amenities and residential living options. The course is characterized by its integration with the natural landscape, creating an elegant setting that emphasizes the region's distinctive ecological features. Carter Plantation functions as both a public golf course and a larger resort community, offering overnight accommodations alongside the championship layout. The facility includes a Bar & Grill, pro shop, and event hosting capabilities, making it a comprehensive golf destination rather than a course-only venue. The design reflects both historical significance and contemporary golf standards, serving as a centerpiece for the surrounding community development while maintaining accessibility for daily public play.
