Origins

The Wetlands opened in April 2006 as Lafayette's newest municipal golf course. Frank Burandt designed the course to use the area's lakes, wetland features, native grasses and wildflowers.

Design Philosophy

Burandt created broad fairways and multiple teeing options but used water, bunkered greens and native vegetation to introduce strategic demands. Water affects numerous holes rather than serving purely as scenery.

Development

Lafayette Consolidated Government reports ongoing drainage and maintenance-facility improvements as the course has matured.

Today

The Wetlands remains part of Lafayette's public golf system and supports recreational play, instruction, youth programmes and a substantial tournament schedule.
