Chardonnay Golf Club
About
Sitting at the gateway to the renowned Napa Valley wine district, Chardonnay Golf Club meanders through acres of lush Chardonnay and Merlot vineyards dotted with sparkling lakes and wandering creeks. Native flora and fauna cover the golf course, which also provides a home for an abundance of wildlife including hawks, foxes, bobcats, and even the occasional golden eagle. Besides the spectacular setting, the layout provides one of the most challenging rounds in the area. The rolling landscape provides interesting elevation changes and there are plenty of mature trees coming into play. Several holes also feature water hazards and strategically placed bunkers. Chardonnay Golf Club's greens are lightning fast and the course plays long. One of the most memorable holes, both for the scenery and level of difficulty is the par-3 eighth. This hole is framed by stunning views of the Valley and it requires some clever shotmaking skills.

Golfer Reviews
Fun course but the greens need work
I like this course a lot but the greens are legitimately sadistic; some even nonsensical. They look nice at first glance but as of today in July they are bumpier than all heck and do not roll true whatsoever. Some of the greens feel like your at a putt putt course because they are ridiculously undulated and whoever sets the Pins is not a lover of the human race. No seriously, either they don’t play golf or get some sort of sick pleasure knowing they will be screwing with peoples heads from the first green to the 18th.
FUN track all in all but could be one of my favorites if the greens rolled true.
Chardonnay
All good except the carts. There are apparently not enough carts to give players a fully charged cart by 11:30am. Our cart was going dead on 1. They brought us another right away. Tough times.
Nice track.
I enjoyed this course. The layout was good as there were a variety of holes meandering through the vineyards which were beautiful. I had trouble on the greens as the pins were placed on top of mounds that made it tricky., ie 11 3 putts. Ouch. I need to play it more to get a feel for the greens.
Great morning at a nice course.
First time this year at one of my favorite course.
This is a nice course. Some challenging holes. Six par threes and six par fives make for a different day of golf when compared to the normal course. I will be a regular when we are in the Napa Valley. My only criticism is that the course is pretty wet in areas early in the morning (I played before 7). The views are pretty cool with vineyards surrounding the fairways. Looking forward to playing during the harvest season.
Chardonnay. July 8th.
A good day on the course.
Slowish pace of play - stuck behind some people who took their putting way too seriously!
The course is in good condition overall, but the fairways are showing signs of drying out - big brown areas.
Needs water
Great course looks like they have a water shortage problem. Things are getting run down,however layout is great!
Beautiful Napa golf course
The course is well maintained and beautiful vineyards. The course layout can be difficult, and lots of hills. If you planned to walk, it is a hike up hill and down hill multiple by a few. The direction to each hole maybe confusing. It is more than satisfying overall.
Very nice course!
We Tee’d off early, about 7am mid-June in cool, overcast conditions. Nice wide open practice areas. Greens were very good, consistent all day. Walkable course although I needed a few lifts from green to T. The food in the grill is outstanding. I’ll play there again!
Great scenic Course
I really enjoyed this course. There are 6 par 3’s and 6 par 5’s, so it had a different feel. Lots of different looks and elevation drops. Very enjoyable round.
Getting back to normal
Having played the course before since the COVID-19 reopening, it was great to see the pins in the holes as they used to be and the ball wash available. The course was in great condition as always.
