North Georgia surprise

Decided to go a day early to a wedding and play some golf. Wife booked Chastatee. What a surprise. Great staff and the starter was very nice as well.

Course is in good shape and tee boxes were good. If I had to say one detraction, some greens showed signs of some possible winter kill on edges of greens. I never had an issue with it.

As an 8 handicap, I found it challenging and interesting from the standpoint of the rolling terrain.
Usually playing courses by the ocean or Florida the terrain was very entertaining.

I would certainly drive back to play again. A very nice surprise with nice people.

Fun track with mature greens

The greens are soft and very receptive and putts roll a little slower than you might be used to seeing. The bunkers are a bit inconsistent, but you don't have to hit balls into them. lol. The course is not super long, but you can still hit driver on lots of holes and try to get a wedge in your hands. Not very many flat holes on this course. Fun layout that can be challenging but scoreable if you hit FWs and Greens.

Overall-in great shape

Course is always one of the most enjoyable in the area. Only criticism, same as often referenced, is need for more sand in the green side bunkers and more consistency amongst the bunkers. Outside of that, course conditions and staff are excellent.

Fun Day at Chestatee

This layout is always a delight to play. Rolling terrain, room off the tee and large greens are a good combination. Greens were rolling true. My only knock were the bunkers, which were too form for an explosion shot, and some had pebbles.

Its been better

Course is not in the best shape, looks like they lost the greens hard to believe with the weather this year. I have been playing this course for the last 6 years. And love the layout of this track. But it seems that the condition of the course is heading in the wrong direction. Most likely be my last round playing this course.
