Chateau Elan Golf Club - Chateau Course
Played On 08/28/2019Review both Chateau and Woodlands
I play both, so here's some thoughts. Chateau gets more traffic than Woodlands - more open, a little easier and greens better, so makes sense. Chateau course layout ok except for a few spots i.e. one bizarre par 4 (I think 17)...odd piece of land, probably not much they can do.
Best thing about playing either course is super nice folks working in pro shop and restaurant (nicely redone).
Worst thing are cart paths on Woodlands which the new owners need to replace ASAP before someone gets hurt and/or sues them. I've been thrown into the roof (neck strain) a few times. Ask the cart service workers. I mostly drive in fairway for safety. Shameful condition. Not sure the greens on Woodlands will survive. They keep them spongy soft, iron shots routinely burrowed/impaled into green. Owners have spent money but plenty more needed to get courses up to reasonable standards. Fix some basic things on Woodlands and my overall rating goes up to 4. I don't think the Chateau side can get above 4 regardless due to layout limitations. Woodlands has more potential but will the private equity guys put in the necessary money? I doubt it but we'll see.

Folks were nice, greens good, moved along quickly in spite of cart path only.
Fairways were a mud pit for the most part, quite a bit of casual water pooling under feet. Almost felt bad tromping around tearing up the fairway.

Heard the course used to be worse. Greens will probably be ok in summer.. Be careful of rocks in places (can ding up clubs).
Lady in pro shop was nice.
Price ok for 18, not 9(I think only 3 dollars less).
