Chateau Elan Golf Club - Woodlands Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Chateau Elan boasts three public courses, two championship courses and a nine-hole course, as well as a private golf club, The Legends. The Woodlands Course is one of the public courses. It is considered the most scenic of the three championship layouts with stunning views of the north Georgia foothills and a landscape of sparkling lakes and towering trees. Of the two public championship golf courses, the Woodlands is considered to be slightly more challenging thanks to several tree-lined holes that require a fair amount of accuracy. The rolling terrain provides plenty of elevation changes, so be prepared for some tricky blind shots. The lakes and ponds dotting the course come into play on several holes as well. Although it enjoys a beautiful mountain setting, Chateau Elan is conveniently only 40 minutes from Atlanta.

Never disappoints!
The course is in great condition, tee boxes have recovered & looking excellent. We enjoyed the round, experience & the staff! We didn't appreciate the group in front of use constantly dragging their feet on the greens & not fixing the mess they left behind. This is not on the course but rather this is on the golfers.....they should have been more respectful!

Nice course.
First time playing this course. Just getting a practice round in before this Saturday. Tournament location for Golfweek Am. Atlanta. Overall the course was in great shape.There were some holes that required precise tee shots or you will get blocked out on the next shot. Played long because of the rains. The only thing I didn’t like was the non repair of the pitch marks. Can’t stand that.

Woodlands Delivers
This is a solid course on its own and complements the Chateau course quite well. It’s more demanding than Chateau and conditions have improved with the ongoing improvements to the resort property.

Great Day!
4:30 start right on time. Played in 3 and a half hours. Course in very good condition. Greens were aerated but very small punch holes so still rolled pretty well. Just a little slow but that's expected after aeration.
Hi, thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Chateau Elan Golf Club - Woodlands Course.
If I had known
If I had known that the greens were just punched I would not have played, If I had know that there was somewhat of a (small) tournament ahead of me I would not have played. No excuse for the pace of play and not excuse that there was no marshal to speed things up.
