Love the course and layout- received no notification of aeration

Love Chateau Elan Woodlands- layout is great, challenging but fair. Played it many times. When I booked the tee time on Golf Now, no reference was made to the fact the greens were JUST aerated when I booked the tee time. Although we had a very enjoyable day, golf now should have alerted to the change on their web site.

Friday round

Played woodlands today, grass is getting greener by the day. Greens are slow compared to what they will be in a few weeks when they cut them. Course is in fabulous shape. Best public clubhouse in north Georgia! Can’t wait to play again!

Small but mighty

I played from the green tees and it felt short. I didn’t need driver a lot because of the short par 4s. That said, accuracy of the tee is rewarded but the fairways are pretty forgiving. You’ll just be hitting from an awkward lie but that’s Georgia golf.

The greens were impeccable. Not unrealistically fast but definitely moving. The best part was they were true. Every put was consistent. I’ll play it again just to putt on these greens.

The staff is what makes this place great! Very friendly, super helpful and kind.

Great Condition!

Course is in excellent late winter / early spring shape. The greens are good but a tad slow. Pace of play was excellent, under 4 hours! Get out and enjoy!

Over priced

Hey guys, love the course and restaurant in clubhouse. But you can’t charge $90 for Friday afternoon and have the following issues;

Old golf carts that don’t work. One group was pushing theirs back to the clubhouse as we hit the first tee. Our golf cart brake didn’t work. We had a pile of branches, chunks of asphalt, and rocks stashed in the cart to use as brakes under our tires. One tire was bald. Huge safety risk. I told the cart guy and he showed me how to delicately apply the brake which he could only do once in every 5 attempts.

The course wasn’t in great shape for $90. Maybe $60 value. Mole traps placed around a couple tee boxes which were destroyed.

Halfway house has a sign that says “snacks”. There weren’t any and no attendant their selling food or anything.

A lot of maintenance is needed around cart path and Pine straw and grass. It’s been rutted out all over.

Again, for the price, you’ve got to reinvest to make the course match that price.

Overall good

Booked on the Woodlands course but when I arrived it was closed (not sure why). At least three groups were lined up to start in the Chateau course. Must have merged all tee times from two courses to one. Would have been nice to have known this prior to arrival. So pace of play was slower than would have expected. But overall course is good shape considering its mid-February. Greens are excellent.

Hello, tommygowens. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. With that in mind, we are working to best control pace and allow everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon.
