Now inclusive to its membership, Graywood Golf & Racquet Club(formerly known as Gray Plantation) is two clubs in one.  We offer an award winning golf course and a state-of-the-art Sports Club that is unmatched in Lake Charles and Southwest Louisiana.  The facility is located in the only Master-Planned community in Lake Charles, simply known as Graywood.

Graywood Golf & Racquet Club

From 2001 through 2006, Golf Digest named Graywood Golf & Racquet Club as one of the top 100 courses in the United States. It's high praise, to be sure, but it's also well-earned. Graywood is an unmatched golf experience.

This fantastic layout was designed with strategy in mind, delivering a competitive punch that at the same time soothes all stress with scenic beauty. Rounds at Graywood are an inspiration, a reminder of everything players love about this classic game.

In 2020, Graywood went completely private to its 350+ full members and 500+ Sports Club members.  Graywood is also equipped with a full host of amenities, from the fully-equipped pro shop to the expert instructors who are always available for lessons.

The Sports Club is unparalleled in Southwest Louisiana.  We have a state of the art workout facility, 8 clay tennis courts, 2 hardcourts, and 8 recently completed Pickleball Courts.  However, it's the activity at the Sports Club that defines Graywood.  From Junior Tennis Camps to weekly clinics for juniors, ladies and men we have so much to offer.
