A Nice Outing

North Fulton is always a bit of a challenge because some of the fairways are relatively narrow. In addition if you are a skittish player this is not the place for you. The tee boxes in certain areas seem to be very closely situated so courtesy and understanding of the layout is critical. The length of the course is good for an intermediate golfer like me.

Save your money and time

Don’t waste your time here. Pace of play is abysmal. 18 holes took us over 5 hours.

Good round of golf

Course conditions good; challenging and clear of a lot of overgrowth of foliage. The walkers are kool who walk around the course on the walking path. The walkers will stop and acknowledge your play. So hope you're a player who can play in front of Spectators.

Cosmetic, my cart seat was badly torn.

Where’s the Grass?

Muddy in a lot of areas and hitting off rock hard dirt instead of some semblance of grass makes this a never playing again. I guess at least it’s cheap but you definitely get what you pay for on this course.

Course conditions were less than ideal

We're coming out of winter so this may be expected, but this was probably the worst course conditions I'd ever seen on Chastain Park GC. Greens were long, fairways were muddy, and it looks like they were doing maintenance on the irrigation systems at some point, so there were massive holes around some of the greens. Overall it's wild they can charge as much as they do here. Will definitely be back in the on-season as I genuinely like the course, the last round was just genuinely the worst I'd seen the course.

Greens were in good condition. Course was still a little wet from all of the rain but once it dries out, it’ll be in good condition.

Decent city course

This course is a decent course for the money. All the holes are pretty nice except for the sloping 18th green where they put a nearly impossible pin position the day I played. Pace of play can be a problem since there aren’t many courses in the city and it can get crowded. Also, there are a lot of walkers, which can really slow up pace of play. Our cart was pretty old and torn, and it shook violently every time under the seat from starting it from a complete stop. Overall this is decent track and the staff was friendly.

Ehhh… it’s whatever

Wouldn’t recommend this place. No range, no amenities, carts are terrible, but the staff was friendly. I have played here in the summer and winter and the course conditions are about the same.. not very good.
For the price, it’s hard to beat in the Brookhaven area.

Great golf, better PEOPLE

I would be ASHAMED to call Chastain Park just a golf course. Chastain is a community of not just great GOLFERS, but great MEN. Lesser gentlemen may make remarks about the course conditions, the nonchalant inefficiency of the starters, the golf cart seats that have chunks of exposed yellow styrofoam, the sound of golf balls hitting Atlanta oaks in your backswing, or swimming pools in the fairways. A TRUE Chastain golf member finds FRATERNITY in the sounds of Chastain, the CHALLENGE of a grassless tee box, the FORTITUDE to play 18 holes with no water coolers on a HOT JU-LY afternoon. The Chastain park FRATERNITY is the heartbeat of Atlanta, do not let the RADICALS on this site steer you otherwise.

Even the goats wouldn't graze here.

I grew up playing this course. Maybe I was just young and naive then, but good lord this place has really been neglected. It hadn't rained in a week and there was water pooled on the fairways. Most fairways were washed out with no turf on top if there was any sort of hill (it's Atlanta, so lots of hills). The clubhouse only sold water and the guys weren't rude, just not particularly friendly. Every single cart had a chunk missing out of the seat cushion. It's clear that nobody cares about this place. What a shame because it's actually a decent layout. One positive is the cart paths had been recently replaced. Pin placements were on sides of hills where the ball would literally just roll off the green if you missed by a half roll.

I only paid $37 on a hot deal and while that is crazy cheap, it still feels like I overpaid.
