Wow

We have many course within a 50 mile radius, I would rate Chalete in the top 5. Course is in amazing shape, just tough enough to make You think about club selection. Devious greens and pin placements. Going to make this a go to course

Great layout

It’s a great course. It is challenging. I would not advise anyone to play this unless you have 5:30 hours to play 18 holes. The group behind us were fishing while they waited. No Marshall’s and the pro shop didn’t seem to care about the long times.

With the fees that courses are charging, it’s not fun to play

Great Track

There are some challenging holes and there are some scoring holes. On a good windy day like we played, makes for an entirely different level of precision needed. Greens rolled more true than fast. Sand was oddly soft and fluffy. Would be a great all around course if it only had a driving range. Will be back to record a much lower score.

Slow Play / Beautiful Course

Beautiful course but 5 hours 15 minutes is ridiculous for a Wednesday morning. We waited and waited and waited on every shot.

The course was in decent condition, the greens ran true, and the traps were improved. Played on a Saturday afternoon at slightly more than 4 hours, which I was pleasantly surprised with. Our group thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Windy weather
Used cart

Had to Push Our Cart Several Times

What would have been a very pleasant afternoon of golf was marred by issues with our motor cart, which several times went into "restricted area shutdown" when being operated ON THE CART PATH! When requests for help went unheeded - told there was no one who could come and help - we were forced to push the cart up a moderately steep incline in order to reach our tee box and continue our round. When our cart was returned by my playing partner he was told there were "electrical problems" with no apology or offer of credit or refund for our troubles.
