Chapel Hills Golf Course

Chapel Hills course never disappoints. Green, fairways and tee boxes in spectacular condition. Memberships are affordable and make sense to get multiple course access.

This must be a far cry from its hay days. First, the driving range is overgrown and unmaintained. You really can’t see where your ball lands as the driving range is just a goat trail. Second, the front 9 is a far cry from the muni style back 9 that has no true fairways and dirt and mud tracks everywhere (considering it hadn’t rained in over a week). The greens in the front 9 were slow but fair but the greens on the back 9 were burnt, diseased, and extremely dried out. Finally, the tee boxes on the back 9 were just dirt with hints of grass trying to sprout. Overall, I couldn’t recommend this course with good conscience during the summer heat. I can only assume it gets its higher ratings from cooler temperature play.

When I say challenging. I mean the greens. They are fast and a lot of angulation, pin location 5 had to be the Sunday pins, bunkers are also always in play, course forces you to respect it.

Over all tee box’s, fairways and greens were in good shape. The bunkers were hard pan. More like a clay, hard top vs a beach sand.

2nd time playing the course. Course is very open, and in great shape. Will def play here again

I played with a friend on 7/1 just after 8am. The course was in great shape. I don’t know what is better the greens or fairways. We played the full round in three hours.

The course looks really good right now since all the rain has dried up. Greens were recently punched, but have recovered very quickly.. Well worth the money.

Good test of golf. Only gripe is some of the banks in front of the greens were so wet the ball just stopped. Great layout and good condition (including the greens).

The layout is fun to play. Considering all the rain, the course was in solid shape. It has a nice range, chipping green, and putting green. The green were healthy but pretty slow pace wise. Overall a good value and worth a visit.

The only thing I enjoyed about Chapel Hills was the courtesy of the man who ran the pro shop, I believe his name was Allen. He wore glasses & was very polite. I had wanted to play this course, but I was very disappointed! The course was rated #15 in the Top List of Public Courses in GA. I’m not sure when it was rated that. Tee boxes & most greens were not in good shape. There were 2 groups in front of me, I was playing by myself and they appeared to just have started playing. I understand that, but I motioned to play through & they did not want me to. The other thing that I did not at all realize was that holes 1-4, were close to the Douglas County Sanitation Department. The weather was in the low 90’s & humid. The smell was unbearable.

I could only take playing 9 holes. I asked “Allen” about a refund for the back nine & he told me that he was not able to issue the refund at the pro shop that I would have to go directly back through GolfNow.

Overall the facility has always been great. Shocked to see how bad some of the tee boxes are looking but it seems like they are in the process of addressing them. The fairways and greens were in excellent shape though. If you want a course that will test your shot shaping ability this is it with a few driveable par 4’s that if you take advantage of, can certainly be good scoring holes.
