Haven't Played Challedon in a While...

I used to play Challedon several times a year, but haven't been there since the pandemic. I had seen some comments about "an infestation of ground bees on the greens" and that it was recently aerated after I booked the tee time. However I have to say the course was in good condition. The tee boxes were a little shaggy, but nothing too bad, and there were little stones/rocks in some of the bunkers but easily removed (which USGA Rules now allow). The fairways were green and in good condition. There was only one hole on the front 9 which showed a little "wear and tear." The aeration was not a big problem and we only saw ground bees on three greens (One of the workers came out on #2 green while we were there to try to kill them...with a racket, no less!) Pace of play was excellent--we were done in a little less than 4 hours. All in all, I think some of the feedback is unfounded. Challedon is in great condition and I will definitely play again.

Horrible value

If you enjoy slow play, bee infested greens, and ragged tee boxes then Challedon is the place for you!

As a bonus, you get nice little sand mounds on the greens to putt around. For the low price of $80 you can enjoy a round that’ll take you into the 5+ hour range.

Weekend Warriors

Like the course. Pace of play was really bad. When spoke with Marshall was rude and said suck it up it’s the Weekend Warriors. Course is in good condition but Tees could be shaved more. Friendly staff otherwise. Won’t let one Marshall’s attitude stop me from coming here.

Poorly managed

No rangers to keep pace moving. Make no attempt to create foursomes so you have a mishmash of groups all over the course. They continously send groups off at 10 when the have a league playing. Sell a membership with unlimites weekday play and don't mention that Friday's are unavailable as they book out with outings throughout the season. Polite and very apologetic if you address the issues but don't take any corrective actions. Not worth the aggrevatoon if you are looking for a relaxing round.

Poor management

Horribly managed, confusion with starter as he is working cart inventory as well as other things. No rangers or beverage cart. They send groups off on 10 when leagues are going off the front. Very apologetic when you complain, but don't correct the problem. Too many professionally run couses located nearby to pay premium dollars for sub standard services.
