Chastain Park Golf Course

Great weather, great flight and a nice course in good condition for a good price. Nothing more to say.

This course is is fun layout with some quirky holes. It isn’t overly long from the tips and has some character and good location in relation to downtown Atlanta. It is abundantly clear that the course is an after thought to profit. The club house does not have a liquor license and does not offer beer. There was not a cart girl on duty for any type of refreshments that rode the course, and the selection of items in the shop for refreshments were as diverse as a little league after game snack. Half of the tee boxes were sand and tees are not moved on a per day/traffic basis and that is evident by the holes and lack of grass to be found. The greens rolled very inconsistent and we’re not mowed for the first 2 holes. At hole 3 we had to wait 5 minutes for the greens mower to mow said green, and had to wait almost 10 minutes on the next hole for the same thing. @9:45am, you’re expecting the greens to be already done. That brings me to the next point about greens. They were in okay shape for this time of year, but the number of improperly repaired cups and the lack of a recent sanding makes half of your putts require a crash course in brail to read them. For $50 there are many other options within a reasonable distance that you’re money would be better spent at.

As stated, this is the slowest course in Atlanta. Overbooked and lots of walkers so be ready for a near 6 hour round every time you want to play here. Course is neat but most of your time is spent watching other golfers while you wait to play.

It’s perfect but could use a little maintenance around t-boxes and some bald spot in a few holes.

How about installing a small box around t-boxes for people to dispose broken tees. Imean by thematkers on each hole.

If food, snacks, beer were sold there would be plenty to use in theses maintenance issues

no water in jugs

no water in ball cleaners

no snacks at proshop

charge higher greens fees and buy some sod

follow bobby jones example

much tree and under growth pruning needed

The course is very green with a few rough spots around wet areas. The tea boxes are a disaster, but you can find spots of green grass. The greens are in remarkably good condition and soft when I played them.

If you play North Fulton, you have to be prepared to take your time and just enjoy all the people around you, upset by an occasional Wate this is probably not the course for you.

Haven’t played this course in a couple of years. I recall hearing that the previous management was out and the City would assume the course. Well it shows. All beds were overgrown with weeds. Tee boxes were a mess. Greens horrible and fairways washed out and eroded. Not to mention multiple deep holes left unmarked for irrigation repairs. Oh and no food/drinks are sold anymore and no cart girl.

Such a shame that a great local course has fallen into such disrepair.

The course, while a very nice layout, is poorly maintained. And there are no food services, at all, even though the facilities are there and it is obvious they were there at one time. Not even a simple hot dog at the turn and no cart service, on the course, either.

I do not think I will be back.

This course pace of play is about 4hrs with a full group. Plenty of driver holes, plenty of opportunity to use all your clubs. Great views, would recommend

Friendly people working and courteous fellow players. Look, if a group of older gentlemen waive you through on the second hole, because they can tell your 18 year old kid is a player, then hats off to the course and the people that play there.

The course was fine for a public muni and the greens rolled pretty good. We played from the blues, which made the back 9 a challenge. Overall, worth the $$ if you play on a Sunday am.
