Nice course
The course layout was good with great views, the course was a bit wet in sheltered places due to the rain in the last few weeks but were the course was open and in the sun it was fine. Staff were great and it was well worth the money.
No Ranger, Greens to Small
Very slow pace of play, 4:45 round time. Waited 5-10 minutes on every tee with both a single and a twosome quitting do to pace of play. No Ranger, with a GPS system that knows where all carts are and who is causing slow play but chooses to both not monitor slow or do anything about it. The course, well beautiful property and views, however, the greens are so ridiculously narrow, some less than 20' makes play slow because no one can hit them, just bad green complex designs. Condition was above average with greens smooth but slow, fairways very good, rough too long, tees in terrible condition, mostly weeds. Price at $75 was too much for this course and experience. I play 60+ rounds a year and this was my most unsatisfying rounds this year. I do not recommend.
Great shape, great layout, great views…but had to wait on every single shot. Appears some of the folks in the neighborhood would just hop on the course wherever they felt like it.
Excellent condition
Conditions were excellent. Greens beautiful albeit a bit slow. Some of the tee boxes could be in better shape but overall great value for the senior rate!
One of the nicer courses in the area
Overall very nice. Greens are nice as mentioned but
no real contours to them. Not much reading required.
Worth trying!
Course was in good shape, tee boxes need some TLC, but thats expected on mountain courses with limited space. Fairways were very good, rough is thick, but maintained. Greens are long/skinny, but great shape and rolled well. Maintenance crew does a great job! Layout was awesome, some strategic holes, and some wide open holes, but fair. Got a deal on golf now for like $45, absolutely ecstatic about that! Its a $75-80 course in my opinion. Sounds like it has improved dramatically over last little bit and sounds like they plan to continue that. Definitely worth playing!
Course in great shape.
Course was in great shape. Good value for the price. I amenities so that’s a minus.
This course has improved dramatically over the last 2 1/2 years
I love everything about this course except the bunkers. They are very neglected and I don’t understand why since everything else is so good. They are not even raked
In excellent shape
Course in excellent shape. Greens are in really good shape albeit a bit slow compared to what I used to. Fairways generally perfect. I didn’t get a chance to sample the pub which I think is open at noon.
Nice course, but no cart/restaurant
Really enjoyed playing here. When I got in they gave me a sheet that had some helpful course management and they let me go off early since the sheet was pretty open. Would have loved to know the pub wasn’t open and there could have been greater communication on a few things but overall pretty good experience. Would play again, but bring your rangefinder.
Shoutout to the cart guy who found my rangefinder and took the time to call me immediately so I could come back and grab it. I hadn’t even left the street yet!
Nice course. Greens in great condition. Could use handrails on steps at tee boxes.
Improved Course
Played on the 4th of July. $75 seems a little high but it seems if all courses are getting expensive. They are doing great work on course improvements. Greens were nice and fairways were great.
Interesting
Really good greens, fairways nice, tee boxes ok. Many large greens but narrow and long. Approach shots need to come from correct angles. Medium speed if u can't putt it's going to be a long day. The front is the more difficult with the back being a joy to play as it opens up a little. The course plays to slope rating on card. Will definitely play again as the views and overall conditions are worth it.
Chestnut Improving
Played Chestnut in mid-April and course conditions have improved - fairways have better grass coverage, greens in good shape, rough is a bit thick, tee boxes still improving & I wasn’t in any sand! A short summer shower slowed play conditions, typical of summer golf in the Blue Ridge. A fun semi-private course.
Excellent course and beautiful place!
The course is in great condition, amazing 3D mountain Golf - with downhill shots into lush green valleys. They keep the place in wonderful condition and the staff is super friendly. Vire of mountains and valleys all green as it gets, subtropical rainforest. They have loaner clubs included and Cart fee is included too. Value, meets beauty, and pretty challenging course. Many risk reward decisions but the money is on the ones that keep it straight! Definitely enjoyed and will return!
