A real challenge

A really challenging but rewarding course. We played off the forward tees and our highest handicapper won the day so it's very playable for all. Impressive set up all round.

Chateau course

Had a wonderful time. Fairways were great. Greens rolled fast and true but if your ball rolled out of fairway you almost needed to step on it to find it. Lost several balls on not so bad drives. Would definitely play again for the right price.

Great layout and fun to play

Woodlands course is not a long course but challenging enough and the layout is very interesting and not boring.

Die to construction of new residential houses along the some of holes of the course, we have been experiencing some dust and noise while playing with some maintenance issues on fairways. I am not sure whether that was the reason or not but the course was wide open on Sunday afternoon so we did not have to worry about pace of play.

Will definitely play again.

Chateau Woodlands course

Course was in good shape. Greens were good and soft. A little expensive but it was a good round.

A great course that has become a mess

I have played the Woodlands course multiple times but not in about a year. Checking in the staff was helpful and friendly and the pro shop has an outstanding selection of merchandise. In getting and loading the cart we noticed it had a flat rear tire. We changed carts and the new cart had not been cleaned or had sand bottles filled. Next we tee off on the chewed up tee boxes. Fairways and roughs were not up to standards but the real problem was the greens. Almost all of them were suffering severe damage with no grass in certain area and an extremely bumpy surface. This is snot a course worth $95.00 on a weekday in this condition. If you can't present a playable golf course, let your golfers know and reduce your rates. Currently I would not go back.

The Course Management Is a Letdown

The course, especially the greens, is unfortunately in need of much better maintenance. It has a great layout with the potential to be worth $150 or more if the course were properly maintained. It’s a shame that the condition of the course doesn’t live up to its potential.

Pro Shop Lies

I always like the layout of woodlands, and it is extremely challenging for those who hit a draw. But I was completely lied to in the pro shop. I knew that the course had aerated on aug 24-25 (over a month ago) so I asked the lady at the front desk (Andrea) how the greens were, and she said “oh they are great, healed super well and firming up nicely”. Not only were the greens unbelievably soft, but we drive up to the first green and it was top dressed yesterday. It felt extremely disrespectful for her to lie. If she told me the greens were bad, it would have been fine, but it just felt very wrong to lie about it and tell me they were in great shape. Sarazen’s bar was fantastic after the round and I still really enjoyed the round, just would have appreciated a heads up and not a lie.

Not what it was!

Every one of the bunkers not maintained. They were full of weeds; not raked. Several of the greens also had weeds. Tee boxes needed some attention too.

Hopefully, the management will show this course some love.

Not worth the price

A few Positive things, Staff was friendly and Pro Shop is nice. However, the negative....for the price I expected the cart to be powered at full and not die on me on hole 14, secondly, the greens are terrible! Divert holes everywhere and finally, when the cart did die on me the pro shop did not answer the phone call.

Woodlands is no longer wooded or in good shape

There was a time I preferred this course over the other two but it’s very apparent they are running the Woodlands course on a Dollar Tree budget! So sad!!
