Course was a good value for the money. It is a bit of a drive from Charlotte, but well maintained. Greens were in really good shape.

Best deal around

First time here in years and wondering why. Tees, fairways and greens all perfect. The best I've been on in the Charlotte area this year including some private clubs. Great layout as well. Only knock is the bunkers could use a little work but after all they are hazards.

Good, as always

First round here in about 6 years. Excellent layout, paired up with an enjoyable group. Lots of work done on the course since my last trip, big oak removed on 2 took the teeth out of the hole. Other trees removed needed to go. Greens were recently redone but were surprisingly slow and a bit bumpy. Played behind elderly foursome who made no offer to let us play through, 5.5 hr round. Despite the pace of play an enjoyable day. As always, 10, 11 & 12 are great. I'll be back!

1st time playing this course and I loved it. Drove down from Matthews(50 mins). Overall course was nice. Nice layout, back 9, gives golfers a nice challenge. Greens were in great shape and this was with a lot of rain the prior 2 days. Will definitely be back soon!

Beautiful layout!

This course really surprised me. The greens were very smooth and fast. The fairways were dormant, but very playable. For all of the rain we have had, the course was remarkably not too wet. This was my first round at the course and I loved every hole. Lots of fun to play.

Winter golf at Chester Golf club

Course was a tad wet as we had some rain in the past couple of days so it was a path only day. Greens are in very nice shape for mid winter and the course layout is one I really enjoy playing. 24 bucks on golf now so a very good deal there. Try it if you never have or play it again and support the place.

Best is yet to come

Like an aging movie star with a little surgery! The result is great! This is a classic style course that recently upgraded to new Bermuda greens. The greens are still filling in and will get even better. The layout is straight forward and fun. You have to work the ball both ways. There are some forced carries over water. Tees are well placed to accommodate a variety of players and the course can easily be walked. Only issue was that the bunkers had plenty of sand but also had quite a few rocks.

Good course and a great day

I would have never played this course if it wasn't for Golf Now but I'm glad I did. The staff was very friendly. The course to me was not one of the longer one so if you had control of your driver you could use it all day. Greens were new and in great shape. I went out as a single and never ran into anyone. Played 18 holes in 3 hours.

Great Place For a Round of Golf

Always enjoy playing at Chester! Just a short drive from south Charlotte or Fort Mill. Course is usually in great shape as it was this time. Greens are new with just a very few issues here and there. Worth the drive and got a great deal on GN!

The greens have been redone recently and still had areas that need work. Fertilized the day we played. The course is making good improvements and look forward to playing again. GN has some good rates here.. Actually played 27 holes.

Nice layout

The first green had some problems but other than that the greens were very good except for a couple areas. The fairways were great and I was glad to see cups and cooler of ice with a water fountain over around 5 and 14. I really enjoyed the traps but they looked more like dirt than sand.They were really easy to hit out of them.

Played on May 3rd.

I loved the layout of the course. The fairways were nice. Could not hold the greens no matter what I tried....hard. Every time I hit a good shot to the green the ball would either roll off or leave me a very long putt. Very flustrating.
