Great course
Amazing course. Love the layout. Greens and fairway in great shape!! Definitely playing again over and over
Good Shape
Course is in good shape although pace of play can be very slow where you will wait on the tee box and can wait there for 5-10 minutes before play which is uncalled for.
Not a bad course
I like the layout and conditions. Greens are a bit bouncy so very hard read. I would give 4 or 5 stars if course was a bit cheaper. There are courses with comparable conditions for quite a bit cheaper. That being said I still play a few times a month.
Local Charlottean
The course is in its best shape I’ve ever seen it other than the greens. Even the par 5 14th has smooth even fairways from tee box to green - that’s a first. Been playing here since 2019. Course itself used to have bare spots but those have been fixed throughout. Best fairways it’s ever had. Greens are slow - maybe even intentionally so, but not as bad as they were pre-fix in about 2021. Pace of play is still an issue but to be expected.
Fair pricing, many blind spots
This is a very hilly course with many blind spots. Overall great time. I would go back here again without hesitation. Pace of play was slower than ideal but that what happens often at courses on a Saturday mid morning.
Definitely give this course a try! Challenging and fun
enjoyable round of golf
the people here are great and the course is in very good condition. We played on a slightly damp, warm, windy day and found the fairways and greens were in good shape even in the greens were a little slow but that's better than too fast as they have plenty of slope on them. Tee boxes need some attention but I can deal with that.
Nice staff, horrible course
$50 for this chorus on a Sunday is absolutely absurd hands-down the worst place that I’ve played so far in the Charlotte area not worth more than $20. Very nice staff and good people, will never play here again. Would not recommend the chorus to anyone packed up my clubs after nine holes and left
New owners doubled greens fees, no improvements
I used to play this course once a week. Staff have always been very friendly and it’s a nice layout. Cart paths, fairways and tee boxes need some work (cart paths are the worst in the metro clt area). Fun track that would require most of the clubs in your bag. New company bought up the course and effectively doubled the greens fees. No longer worth it at the new prices, and I won’t be going back.
Needs work
Cart paths and greens need a lot of work to be done. Good course layout but need some serious work to make it a desirable course to play.
Extremely condescending front desk staff, 1/5 cart path
Front desk staff treated me like a toddler when I asked if we could move up the tee time by repeatedly asking "does this make sense?" When explaining why he couldn't fit us in. (This is completely understandable, it was just a question and not a demand). I answered multiple times that I did in fact understand that if the tee times are full, that I wouldn't be able to move up the time, but they kept asking if I understood for some reason.
Also, cart paths are maybe 50% paved. With the congestion of booking, was only able to play 13 holes in 2 hours and 45 min, when going quick, due to overbooking.
Would rate this as the worst of the public courses in Charlotte.
The course was in fair condition
The course had some very muddy spots on it on several holes, which were caused by all of the rain that we have had lately. Most of the tee boxes were in Good shape. I believe that tee box on either 15 or 16 definitely needs repair and it has been this way for quite some time. The greens were also in very good shape and proved to be a little challenging. Even though it rained the entire time, we finished the course and we really enjoyed it. The staff in the pro shop were very courteous and friendly.
ATV
You need an ATV instead of a golf cart to play this course. Cart paths are awful. Lots of blind shots, so too many close calls.
