Chateau Elan Golf Club - Chateau Course
About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Labor Day with a couple buddies
Course was busy but generally in great shape (except the teeboxes were a little rough). Greens fast but fair and fairways green and lush for this time of year.
Great course Great Place Great Staff
New to the area. First time playing at this course. Best public course I have played in this area so far. Looking forward to playing the Woodland course soon.

Updated Clubhouse
The new clubhouse, pro shop and restaurant at Chateau Elan are truly first class. The Chateau course fairways and greens were in beautiful shape while a few of the tee boxes were a bit the worse for wear. Staff is always friendly and welcoming. A great course at a wonderful price.
Woodlands
I didn’t like Woodlands as much as I liked the Elan course but it was still a solid experience. Course was in good shape, pace was good & the course was challenging. I’ll be back.
A number if Improvements
I have played this course a lot in the early 2000s. They improve the pro shop, the course layout, and the restaurant.
Look forward to go there again
Chateau Corse is great, but hole 7 under construction
The course is in great condition but hole 7 is under major reconstruction.
If you live in Atlanta area you should play there
I live in Atlanta and Chateau Elan is one of my 10 favorite courses to play within one hour drive time. It's a great course for the money! The two courses have a fun layout, greens are quick, most tee boxes are clean, staff is friendly and houses around the course are pretty to look at! The course is not perfect but it is a public course and for what you pay it's a great deal! The club house with restaurant is perfect and comfortable for lunch, dinner or just drinks. I love their patio as well as their bar inside. Friendliest and most competent person working there without a doubt is Brittany, easy to recognize with her red lips and cute smile! She alone is reason to visit that golf course and stop by the restaurant.
We appreciate the kind comments about your round! We look forward to seeing you again for another one soon.
Great course
Course was in good shape with the exception of a few tee boxes. Pace of play was pretty slow due to not having a starter. Definitely a great value and would recommend to anyone.
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate the comments about the pace of play and have forwarded those onto management. We hope to see you again for another round soon!
