Green/Red at Charbonneau Golf Club

Course has recovered and been renovated from worn and run-down condition experience a couple years ago. Re-opening onsite food and beverage service adds strongly to the renovation.

Played the front nine behind a group that took 2:15. Went to the back with no one ahead and played it in 1:00. Great value and course was in great condition. Would go back for sure.

While this course was in good shape and the greens were even better, for me and many of my friends, this course was on the short side. Being a par 3 and 4 track, I forgot that several of the par 4 hole were under 300 yards from the blue tees. I just turned 50 and I am simply not ready for this style of course.

Course in great shape. Easy walking, overall short. Par 3's average about 190 yards! Longest being 238 yards from the tips. That's what makes it tough. I played in under 3 hours.

Just to be clear-- Charboneau is an executive course, meaning there are no par 5's.

In fact, the longest hole is around 350 yards.

But, you must know, this is a FINE course. Tranquil and challenging at the same time. Very forgiving fairways. Clever use of water and sand traps. Fast play. Friendly staff.

Have been coming to Charboneau for 3 years, just since my 17 year old took up golf. And it's been a wonderful experience for him to get his feet wet in this game. It was never overwhelming for him when he started...like a full course could be for a newby.

Now, here we are, 3 years later...my 14 year old is 17 now. And he absolutely crushes his drives down the fairway. He's out driving me. And some days, out playing me.

And it all started at Charbonneau. This is where he learned the game.

We really enjoy coming here still.

It's a fun afternoon on a beautiful course.

Had a great time. No one in front no one in back of me. Course a little wet in places. Greens in great shape. Landscapers were trying to keep up with the leaves to no avail though. Lost a couple balls in the leaves. I know supposed to stay in fairways. 10 bucks 18 holes 2hrs 45mins. Great deal.

Fun course to play. Short par 4's that are frequently drivable. Some par 3's are pretty difficult. Good condition, pace of play is really good.

On August 25 my wife and I used Golf now to book a round of golf at Charbonneau Golf Club even though I had an email stating round was paid in full I was not allowed to continue checking in(along with an conformation Number) 15 minutes later when that was cleared up I was on my way. 4 some ahead of us and we where paired up with another 2 perfect I thought. But know the pro shop changed it so we where 2 Two somes and the 4some would not let us through this did not make for an enjoyable round. I was very disappointed. I play there 3 to 4 times a month I will think next time about Golf Now and Charbonneau Golf Club.

The 4 some in front of us was playing like there were 8 people in the group... Didn't see the player assistant until hole 18

I enjoyed the course, it was very well kept and look forward to playing again. Can't beat the deal of lf with a cart . I am handicapped and need a cart.

I play this every once in awhile, as my wife likes it. The overall condition is fair. Towels left off ball washing machines, some ball washers are busted, lot of fairway is dry as dirt -not good impression.

On the positive side, it may return to the beautiful
course of last yr and the yr before. Staff is the best.
Pro shop is very expensive.

I think the only thing I would like to see is more care given to several of the fairways. Some of them were extremely dry and grass on them was dry and create many thin shots. The rest was beautiful.

My first time at this course and was happy with paying only $14. A small bucket at the range was only $3 more. The entire staff was easy going and friendly. I was told I could go out whenever I was ready and it was unlimited play as well.

Upon seen the scorecard, I was taken aback to see no par 5's. There are 3 9-hole courses and each one was a par 31. Majority of the par 4's were drivable if you're on with your driver. But you could also tee off with a 6 iron and still have an easy shot in to the greens.

Some holes are painfully easy and don't require much thought, where others will play a bit more challenging due to water, narrowness, or well placed trees. The rough was inconsistent and made chipping hard sometimes. It was tough to know if you would have a hard -pan lie or if your wedge would just slip right under the ball.

Given the fact that it's been a dry summer, I can't complain too much about the conditions. The staff was also good about keeping the water stations full and cold.

My biggest "complaint" would be that majority of the par 3's were 190 - 205 yards from the blue tees. I prefer to have more variety in shots. On some par 3's I would either move up to the front tees or pick a random spot in the fairway simply so I wasn't teeing off with the same 3 clubs on the many par 3's.

Ultimately, I enjoyed my round. I played the red and yellow courses...twice. being almost 100 degrees I suspect that's why it was so easy and quiet to get two rounds in under 5 hours. But for $14 and the ability to play all I wanted, try different practice shots and have a relaxed, carefree round, it was great. Just don't go bragging to your buds on Monday about how "great" you shot because it's not the most challenging course around. :)

I did like this course. It is realy a good course to play. I had fun at it.

This course is a good value at #20 for 18 holes with a cart. There are several very pretty par 3's with shots over water.

Only par 3 and 4 and in the middle of a community so you better get your hits straight ;)
The staff was not very useful... Where is the first hole, just there behind, then we discover there were 3 different 9 holes and had no idea which one we were supposed to play and we booked a 18 holes... So I guess there tee time isn't accurate since anyone go anywhere they'd like.
Other than that, it's a fine quality course but I won't come back, dont really like to play next to houses.

Oh and some bunkers are like impossible to get out from because they are not levelled up. I mean it shouldn't be easy to get out of a bunker but have to face a little mountain isn't normal neither ;)

The course is in good condition for January, pace of play was fine and we enjoyed a nice day of golf!

I have played this short par 62 course a few times, and always enjoyed the layout and challenges. The par three's are a little too long for most average golfers, but the other holes are not too long and well planned, albeit it would be nice to have a couple par 5's to increase the birdie potential. There is plenty of sand and a few water hazards to keep it interesting, but the homes lining the fairways can be a challenge for slicers going OB. Overall a very enjoyable course.

During the summer months, this course is pretty well maintained. I had forgotten my horrible experience 2 Falls ago when I lost 6 balls in 9 holes due to leaves in the fairway and edges. It was almost as bad this time. The fairway had also not been trimmed in some time, and there were branches down from a wind storm 7 days before. I wanted to take a rake out of the sand and rake around looking for my ball.

The course is in darn good shape. We were thrilled it had not been sanded ore aerated.
We love that we don't have to play with others. We like to play by ourselves!
Sure wish you had a restaurant or snack bar.
