Chateau Elan Golf Club - Woodlands Course

Pace of play was a little slow but I’ve come to expect it since the Covid started courses are busy every day of the week. I was pleased with the shape of the greens and how well they rolled. I had played this course a couple months ago and the greens had bare areas and were slow. Overall I would recommend this course.

We had a good day on the course....conditions were good, weather was good BUT the pace of play was like we were stuck in 1st gear....the day could have been great if it wasn't for the fact that it took 5 hours and 5 minutes to play. There was no sight of a marshal to reset the situation.

Un Marshaled round.

Slow. Close to 5 hour round.

Decent conditions.

Ball marks needed to be repaired.

Get what you pay for.

Greens rolled true and was setup somewhat difficult but both greens and fairways in great shape.

Woodlands course is allowing WAY to many two-somes. They need to combine groups to improve pace of play

Woodlands greens have fully recovered and they are in tournament condition. Staff was super friendly as always. Strongly recommend.

The course itself is in great shape, the greens are rolling perfect, great lies in the fairway and the course layout is really fun. The reason for the poor review is that it took over 4.5 hours to play 12 holes and we started at 10:30am. With all the great options within an hour of Atlanta if I spend $85/person to play golf I expect a superior experience and that was definitely not the case. There are plenty of courses around that are in just as good condition at a better price that you can actually get all 18 holes in under 4.5 hours.

If you can get out early before the tourists take over - great course.

I really enjoy playing the Woodlands course at Chateau Elan, however I think $85 for a round is very expensive for normal golfers in the area. The course is in great condition and pace of play is good as well.

The course was in good shape overall. The fairways and tees were excellent and the greens were really good. There were a few thin spots and a few spots where aeration dimples could still be observed, but they putted straight and true. The rough was down, so it made finding errant shots easier.

The staff is friendly and the restaurant was excellent. Between us we had mahi-mahi tacos, a classic burger, and a barbecue sandwich and were very pleased with our meals.

The range balls largely need replacing, but are still sufficient for warming up. The grass tees weren't setup yet as we were the first group off. I don't like hitting off mats as it always seems to throw me off for a few holes after I begin playing.

All in all, it was a great day where no one played particularly well, but that was not the course's fault.

Great improvement on the greens. Excellent shape all around the woodlands course. Rolled smooth and pure. Great job to the team there. I will be back.

I played Woodlands a few weeks ago after the bent grass greens had been aerified, and they were stressed out and weren't in good shape. The course is always beautiful, so the situation with the greens was not great, but the club gave a discount because of that so I was happy. Today, the greens were beautiful (a few of the greens are about a week away from being perfect) and the course itself is in great shape. The thing I like about Woodlands is it is so quiet and peaceful with lots of wildlife encounters. The weather was perfect today and it was just a great experience. Woodlands is a challenging course but fair. The staff are very helpful and friendly and do a great job making me feel that they appreciate my patronage. I like both courses but Woodlands is special.

The greens on the Woodlands Course were in bad condition. For the price of 81$ my group and I did not feel as though it was justifiable. It was more like we were paying for the name.

I have played this course a few times this year and don't know what happened to the greens, They were recovering from being aerated but they were in terrible shape. Looks like they have a fungus. The green fees should have been lowered and they should have told us about the problem.
