Although Chateau Elan Golf Club & Resort is just 40 minutes from Atlanta, the panoramic views of the north Georgia foothills make it feel much further from the city. The club boasts two public championship courses and a nine-hole course as well as The Legends, a private golf club. In addition to the golf, Chateau Elan is also home to a full production winery. The Chateau Course is one of the public championship golf courses. The layout wanders across 170 acres, winding around a lake and two creeks. Water, not surprisingly, comes into play on more than half of the holes but there are also 87 bunkers strategically placed throughout to watch out for. There is thick Bermuda rough bordering the contoured fairways too. It is more open than the slightly more challenging Woodlands Course, the other public championship golf course.

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).

Great day at Chateau Elan

I wish I could have played better but cannot blame the course. Great layout and in great shape. The real time yardage screen on the cart was a great help.

Seems like a silly thing to mention but it was a very hot day and we played in the late afternoon. I have played courses where their water coolers were not refilled and either empty or warm. All coolers had plenty of water and the water was very cold. Taking care of the small stuff is impressive.

Course excellent greens in great shape

Only negative was needed another cart lady out there in heat of the day. Did have cold waters in coolers every couple of holes. Excellent course. Pricey but wait for the reduced price after noon.
