Chester review

Greens running great for this time of year. This course will be in great shape once night temperatures get up in the 60s. Making improvements on the clubhouse, which is needed. Looking forward to playing her in April.

Fun Course

The greens are fast and roll very true. It is early in the season so the fairways aren’t green yet, but there are hardly any bare spots on the course. The pace of play was slow because it was overbooked (word travels fast about how great the course is) and not enough carts, but they are working on adding more carts. This course will be immaculate this year once the fairways come in. I plan to return very soon.

First Time Playing

Old fashioned Golf.

Layout has some good challenges to them. Greens are in very good shape.

Once the Bermuda comes out, it should look great! A few tee boxes need some help.

Bunkers need work, sand is great in some, but some are really thin and it makes it easy to blade your shot. Greens are great!!!

One of my favorite courses. Great layout, easy to walk and deceptively challenging. Greens are fantastic and you will not find a friendly staff.

Good value

Greens are very good. Dormant grass is playable, bunkers in good shape for winter, and the rough is fair. Some trees on 15 block the tee shot from the blue tees and need to be cut back.

The course was in decent shape. Recent snow /rain made for wet conditions. The greens were okay, not as good as they usually are. But with that said it is still winter. Over all good bang for you buck.

Great Day of Golf

2nd time playing at Chester. Course was in excellent condition as it was last Sept. when I played before.

Greens were also in excellent condition. Staff was friendly, and value can't be beat. If you haven't played here yet, do yourself a favor and check it out! I will absolutely play here again.

Afternoon winter round

This was my second time playing Chester and my father and myself were more than happy. Greens were receptive and FAST so challenging to say the least. Love the layout of course and will always keep this course in mind. Can’t wait to try it in spring or summer when course is at top shape. Great course and recommend for anyone.

Course is in good shape, greens are excellent, staff is friendly. Please trim the tree limbs that block the back tees from the fairways on #4 and #15.
