We really enjoyed the course, but our experience at the grill was disappointing. We tried calling…read morein our food order several times with no answer. When we went inside, we noticed the bartender was in the kitchen preparing food, while the man who appeared to be the cook was just standing by as if waiting to cook- not sure if he was new or not. He came out to greet us briefly before returning to the kitchen. When the bartender finally took our order, the only thing available quickly was a hot dog. A cheeseburger would have taken ten minutes, which we didn't have since we were on the clock for the 10th hole. (This is why we had tried to call in our order during the 9th hole, as is common practice at most courses.) We left hungry and disappointed. I mentioned that we had tried calling multiple times, and she explained that they, "can't hear the phone in the back with the fan and burners on." However, as the bartender, she shouldn't be the one cooking if there is a dedicated cook available. Another couple came in to dine as well and also experienced a long wait.

Its quite the hike out from ATL, but you are rewarded with a quiet course and fantastic pace of play. 45 mins for me to get here, but I was done with my round in 3 hours. I was playing solo, and the 3 groups in front did let me play thru. Course conditions are very good. Tee box and fairways are lush well kept. Fairways are mowed low, so always a nice roll and good lie. The greens however, were just punch and sanded. I can tell that it was well cared for to begin with, and I imagine, it will be even better in 2 weeks. Strangely enough, even with the sand, the greens were super fast. If I had to ask for improvement, it has to be the cart path and gas buggy. Please fix the bumps and get new e-carts. Otherwise, keep up the good work. I had a great time, and I will back in 2 weeks, after the greens are healed up.

chateau elan golf club. December 6-2025. Overpriced Off-Season Disappointment…read more I don't mind playing golf in the off-season, but if a course is going to charge premium prices, the conditions should at least come close to matching them. Unfortunately, this place falls far short. The fairways were Dormant due to the time of year and the weather here in Georgia has been in the low 40s. What really frustrates me is With the weather conditions in time of year the rates were still sky-high--as if it were peak summer. If I'm paying top dollar, I expect perfect conditions, and in addition, it was cartpath only so it took us five hours for the round of golf. We paid $125 +8% sales tax for a total of $135. For the conditions of the course, the course layout and the time of year this was a total rip off. There are plenty of courses that adjust their prices to reflect the season and still offer a better experience. This one needs to rethink its off-season value, because right now it's nowhere near worth the cost.

I give Chateau Elan Golf Club 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. I would categorize this as a 4-star club,…read morebut it's somewhat of an underwhelming 4. As a disclaimer, I've only played Chateau Elan's Woodlands course (twice). The club has another 18-hole course called the Chateau course as well as a par-3 course, both of which I've yet to play. Simply put, I expect more of a golf course that's part of a winery and resort. When it comes to resort courses, which I think should be held to a higher standard, this is one of the "lower end" ones I've been to. The clubhouse, amenities, and course (Woodlands) are no better than higher-end public daily fee courses in the Atlanta area. Just a handful of courses I think are better and more fun to play include Bear's Best (Suwanee), Cherokee Run (Conyers), BridgeMill (Canton), Echelon (Alpharetta), and The Frog (Villa Rica). While the Woodlands course isn't a bad course by any means, I'd probably be just as inclined to play municipal courses in Atlanta like Browns Mill and Chastain Park (courses which are closer to where I live in the city) before making the solid 45-minute to 1-hour trek to Chateau Elan in Braselton. Don't take the main entrance for the winery and resort. The golf club is located a little bit further down the road after you've exited off I-85. It's got a separate entrance (Golf Club Drive). Again, compared to other country clubs and higher-end public courses, Chateau Elan's clubhouse isn't all that impressive. It's relatively small and the men's locker room feels more like a temporary trailer or building add-on/extension. That said, the golf shop is stocked with a decent amount of Chateau Elan logo apparel, golf accessories and equipment, and there's a bar and grill with an enclosed patio. The driving range is spacious with plenty of both grass and mat hitting stations. Range balls come in one size only: a basket of 42 balls for $5. The Range Servant accepts tokens, which can be purchased inside the golf shop, or $1 and $5 bills. When I last used the range, the balls were TaylorMade practice balls. They were fairly nice. I haven't been to too many ranges that use them. The golf carts are E-Z-GO electric carts. They were in good condition last time I played. One thing I do appreciate about Chateau Elan is they provide a pair of towels in every cart. It's nice considering most courses at Chateau Elan's price point ($60-80 weekend/holiday morning rate) don't offer towels. The carts come with a few tees too though they are the short variety. For the past decade-plus, long tees have been the norm, so I'm not sure why they provide short ones. The last round I played, I booked our foursome's tee times directly through Chateau Elan's website. The rates shown on Chateau Elan's website were the same as those shown on GolfNow. However, GolfNow required an additional convenience fee paid upfront whereas no payment was due online when booking through Chateau Elan's site. We were charged $62.43 per golfer ($58.35 greens and cart fee plus $4.08 tax) for our Sunday morning round on the Woodlands course. The guy in the golf shop was friendly. There's a bag drop and cart attendants right in front of the clubhouse. The morning we played, they looked to be mostly teenagers. There was no starter which we found to be odd. Every group pretty much started themselves. Our foursome showed up to the 1st tee, then a twosome, then a single. Even though the twosome and single had tee times after us, we decided to go ahead and let them play through. However, the twosome and single did not pair up. If there was a starter, they probably would have been paired up. The last time I played the Woodlands course with my dad, the starter paired us with another twosome. In the end, the pace of play for our foursome worked out to be roughly 4 hours and 45 minutes. It was a bit longer than we would have liked, but it wasn't terrible either. While there was no starter, nor marshall for that matter, there was a food and beverage cart which we saw 2-3 times during the round. The first time, the cart lady did not have sandwiches. The second time, which took a while, she came with sandwiches in tow. As for the Woodlands course itself, it's fine. After playing a couple rounds on the course, I can honestly say there's nothing about it that really draws me back. It's a fairly standard Georgia par-72 nestled among trees and spread throughout a subdivision. It's not terribly long and perhaps average in difficulty. From the tips: 6,735 yards with a 73.1/135 rating/slope. From the white tees (where we played from): 5,927 yards with a 68.4/126 rating/slope. There's little water to contend with and the landscaping and scenery are average. As far as course conditions, they were good to great. The large greens were in magnificent shape. They were among the fastest greens I've played in metro Atlanta. The quality of the sand in the bunkers was good and the tee boxes and fairways were in satisfactory shape.

We attended a wedding here. The outdoor setting was very nice and they were prepared for the heat…read moreand humidity with fans and ice water for the guests while awaiting the ceremony. Cocktail hour a bit less successful. They had one bar outside at top of stairs to the hall. Everything out there, including wines, had gotten very warm to almost hot sitting in the sun. Bar area needs to be shielded from the sun, or better yet have both bars inside with the heat. There was an event cocktail in dispensers. It would have made sense to have one bar focus on that, wine and beer to keep the lines moving as tremendous wait, again at outside bar, standing in the sun and heat. If they had had the event cocktail a s all distance inside then it might have deterred allot of folks from sitting on bar lines. Not well planned. The hall itself is relatively sterile, similar to that of a hotel offering with a tad more character. The room was at a very reasonable temperature throughout the event. The appetizers - mini beef wellingtons, fried shrimp very good. The bruschetta ok. The main course - ok, but certainly disappointing. Old school menu of pot roast, mashed potatoes, squash, if and chicken with caper sauce. First, pork was so hard and overcooked that it was largely inedible. The sauce so thin that it didn't cling the the meat and veggies. The mashed potatoes cold. The squash so limp it was not appealing. The chicken decent but some of the sections still had blood inside and the breasts pretty dry, Also, no spoon for service to get some of the sauce on the meat to help with dryness. The best thing on the buffet was the rolls in y opinion. The place just seemed dated in terms of offering.
