Ball repair

I cannot understand how courses let player abuse the greens. I was repairing as many as 15 ball marks on the greens.

You need a camera on greens where the approach shot it a wedge and notify people repair you divots or leave.

I know nobody likes honesty any more but the biggest problems are Asian players. I don’t have any clue why but that’s a fact. Very odd.

Pace of play ridiculous

Chateau Elan packs you on the course which was to be expected on Thanksgiving morning. Shotgun start which should help the pace of play….It didn’t. The management took our payment, led us out in a caravan and then went home. There were 4 groups stacked on a par 3 and then the next hole is wide open. My foursome was forced to quit playing with 5 holes to play because we were already 4 hr into the round. I walked back into the pro shop only to find the doors locked. I’m aggravated to have paid $150 and not have the chance to finish the round and further have no chance to express my disappointment with the pace of play with management personnel. Don’t go play this course. Go north, go south, but don’t play Chateau.

Only played because of Hot Deal

Decent course, only reason I didn’t give it a worse rating was because if the hot deal price. Tee time was 3:20 and barely finished. Had a 4-some in front of our group playing at a snails pace. Finally let us play through around hole 12. I don’t understand why they charge full price for tee times that will conflict with the sundown time. Tee boxes were shot, fairways were really good, and the greens were well maintained (just really fast fyi).

Chateau debut

For pure golf, an excellent track. Nuances require some local knowledge, but that’s not a concern for a vacation round.

Biggest disappointment was the sparse customer service staff. No cart attendant going out or coming in for a round that started at 11:40 am. No one in the golf shop for almost 10 minutes when I arrived.
