This is the toughest course of the ones we play, but the course was in great shape, and play was fast on a beautiful Friday.

All good except pace of play.

Can we please get back to proper course time management and etiquette?!? A 5+ hour round is unacceptable. The ranger was moving around, but obviously not too effective. Groups that search for balls excessively or hold up because they think they have the magic 250 yard second shot into the green are bad for golf. Get real.

A gentle reminder for those that forgot or never learned proper time management on a course because you picked up some clubs during the Covid crisis…
1. Don’t look behing you…look ahead AND
2. If the hole is open in front of you, you are slowing the pace. Pick up your ball and move to the next hole. Let those behind you to enjoy golf again.

Chalet Hills is Great!

I wish I lived right on the course... Chalet Hills offers a beautiful setting, long holes, and an idyllic round of course... for a very reasonable price.

Holes, 5, 6, 9, 14, 17, and 18 belong in Magazines.

Garbage Round due to 5 hour pace of play

Not a course to go to if you hate waiting on every single shot....like every single one...i called the course 3 times to complain. They dont care. It is standard 5 hour round here. 4.5 is "fast" apparently.

Beautiful course in amazing condition.

This is one of the best courses in the area by far. Layout is phenomenal and very challenging. Condition is excellent, with speedy true rolling greens. No beverage cart, not even water out on the course, no ranger, over a 5 hour round. Pace of play is awful.

Ripped Off

Booked a tee time then had to adjust to 3 golfers minutes after and Golf Now still charged me for 4 even though it wasn’t an issue at the course and we didn’t have a fourth that wanted to join us at the course either. Same day bookings should have some flexibility of going from 4 to 3 golfers. Guy at the course was really not very friendly and the course didn’t have a ranger so the tee box was jammed with people trying to get on before our tee time. It was a mess!

Where’s the drinking water?

Courses need to have drinking water. I go through at least 64 oz of water on warm summer days. I could use refills.

Difficult to evaluate. Course is ok but too many blind shots for my liking. I walked which was a mistake as the distance from greens to tees on the back nine was stupid.

No amenities!

I would rebuild the back nine to make walking possible.

Beautiful layout

One suggestion. There were many I repaired ball marks. Placing a few small signs near some of the greens might help remind people. Also some free ball repair tools might be a good way to encourage it. Saves a lot of maintenance staff time.
