Reviews of Chastain Park Golf Course (Golf)

Carol Dubose

The greens are beautiful. The pro shop was nice. Our group was treated extremely well by the entire staff!

Philo Beddoe

I really like playing here. Was paired with one strange dude this morning. Hey, guy dressed in red with knee length red striped socks... Next time take your meds before you leave the house.

Matt Oja

Overall design is pleasantly challenging. Sand traps are in generally good shape. greens are under renovation, which is definitely needed. You can't beat the price for an intown course or the location.

James Askew

I was only delivering floors to the mansion across the street but the park looks nice

George White

Nice course. Greens recently aerated

James Spencer

Great for jogging in wonderful golf

David Ogle

Terrific golf course with a classic design. Round will typically take 5 plus hours, which is the main issue here. Pace of play is absolutely awful. Otherwise, tremendous value and golf course.

Ron Summers

Great course with cheap fees

Brian Caulfield

It gets the job done for golfing in the city

MAGRAO MACULELE

Nice

Micheal Max

Please..urinating in the creek isn't allowed.

andy oh

Everything good but so much slow. Ranger could help to push the slow player. That will be much better.

Curt O

Good course. A bit packed all around though. Arrive EARLY!

Dwaine Price

Surprising, greens aren't in good shape.

Swan

The nature of the park was amazing. To walk the park takes about 3.1 miles one go around. Very friendly folks walking and walking their pets, bike riders. Park was very clean.

Scott Lucas

Course in good shape but pace of play is atrocious.

Matthew McLean

Awesome course and very reasonably priced. Visited here with a 4 some on vacation and everything was great. Starter spaced everyone out appropriately.

Ryan Hills

the phone auto says that the prices are half the the price of what they say in person , and I got rude customerservice rep, and said nothing can be done Bout what I was told

James Singleton

Nice

Jay Jackson

Seen and played on much better courses but it's far from the worst. Decent for just shooting around with friends.

Dale Sharp

Staff were all very friendly and helpful with tips to navigate the course. This is a decent municipal course. Some tee boxes and fairways have picturesque views of Atlanta. Lots of elevation changes (compared to where I play in Savannah GA and North Carolina). Greens were fast and fairly smooth. Not an easy course to walk due to the steep climbs, especially on the back 9. Drainage is a problem, quite a few muddy fairways. Some areas suffer from significant rain erosion. It appeared that bunkers are under repair but I see the potential once they are filled with sand. If you temper your expectations and understand that this isn’t Augusta, you will enjoy your round.

Chris Kennedy

Worse course I have ever played. I wouldn't play there again if you paid me to.

Britt Lowie

Beautiful, well-maintained course in a prime location with gas-powered golf carts. There is no driving range at this facility and parking is limited to the street. The staff is friendly, the prices are reasonable and the course is challenging.

Don Kim

This course is basic and has what you need. It's not the fanciest of places but if golf is the game, play here. This is located near all the restaurants.

Yelizaveta Utkina

The nicest golfcourse conviniently located in Atlanta with wonderful staff and Marshals.

Rob Huey

I was able to book a single (walking) tee time at 7:12 this morning, so several things worked well. I was one of the first ones there so no problem with parking and we were the first tee time so we set the pace. I did 3 hours and got out before it got blistering hot for the day. This is a municipal course so while not in the neat shape it was good and had some very testy holes. To sum it up - quick round, close to home on an okay course - all good.

Dave Eckstein

October, 2012 - My church group plays here regularly. The course was in good shape, as it has been for several years now. Greens were in excellent shape and challenging. Terrific environment in which to play! Always friendly and helpful staff. Wait time on first hole can be challenging. (So many, want frustratioin, so much . . .) Along with the Bobby Jones Golf Course, one of the best values in the Atlanta area. (We played on a Saturday morning for $32!!) Highly recommend playing the course.

Keith Poutier

The greens are burned out and unplayable in areas, plus management is incompetent. Avoid at all cost.

Gregoria Vital

Nice park

Eric Loxton

First time there today and it was great.

kenneth lewis

Nice golf course, people were friendly, helpful.

Brennan White

Great fun with the whole family!!!!

Ben L

Beautiful landscaping, nice people, great games, food, drinks, beautiful ladies, pool, tennis court, gym , baseball field, soccer field, Amphitheater, really nice location, clean carts.

Nathan Jones

Nice course, but they overbook it to bring in the dollars. Plan 5-6 hours to play a normal round here

Mark Losaw

Great place to play golf

Victor Potter

Friendly and helpful staff! Enjoyed the course and the scenery.

Ryan Bannon

For a county course, this is a pretty nice course. If you are a players club member you can walk for free after 6. The greens are tough to read, and often play pretty slow. I would recommend this course to someone who is looking for a place in the city. Number 2 is the toughest green on the course. Proper pin placement is crucial, otherwise expect to get bogey or worse. I personally have never encountered rude staff members. However, it can become pretty congested. I think pace of play could be better at certain times. You should make it through 9 holes in less than 2hrs and 45min, however, all to often that isn't the case. If you are looking for a really nice course, then join a country club or play 30 minutes outside the city. This has exactly what an amateur needs to have a good time by yourself, or with your buddies.

Naoki Inagaki

There were several places need touch ups. But all greens were perfect true and fast. It's a great golf course for the better golfers whether red, white, or blue tee.

Susan McCarter

Walked three miles around the golf course

Estella Ryan

Very much fun

Rod Holbrook

Challenging greens...I wish they had a driving range

MrRraaccee

If you want to overpay for a poorly designed and badly maintained course this one is for you! Where should I start? The lack of parking lot? The very rude employee (yes...there was only one)? The bumpy postage stamp greens were tons of fun! Most holes I actually would have preferred to be in the rough (better grass).

David Pemberton

Good in town golf

Grant Waugh

Nice course but they “prorated” me for 3 holes and didn’t refund for our cart for a rainout. Also a little crowded

Judy Smith

Peachtree Creek. Does this Creek. Border thé park ?

Brad Hill

Been playing golf for over 30 years and have never encountered such consistently rude staff. The course is ok but there are much better affordable options.

Rice Melvin

Great winter course, challenging walk, decent putting.

Louise Christmas

The center is making some changes in the downstairs area with new Flooring, t.v.s . Just a complete remodel of the area.

Rick Doggett

Hopefully someone from Atl Parks & Recreation will pick this up but finally a team has brought this golf course which has always been a good layout to its full potential, Played this course on and off since I was a kid and its never been in better shape. From the refurbished bunkers to flush fairways , eye for detail landscaping, new golf carts and finally with new needed rolling equipment greens that are smooth and roll at about 9 on the stemp. The marshals are friendly and helpful along with the golf shop staff. Does have a tendency to get overcrowded at times but understandable given its the only public game in north Atlanta. Chastain Park GC has evolved from a average at best facility to a A rated public course. And there is a locker room renovation underway.. Kaseem Reed s legacy with his parks and recreation platform initiative should be proud

Rourked Herndonmk

One of the best 18 hole courses I've ever been to. Been to Chastain a few times this year and always impressed.

Mark Shekerow

Course is in good shape. The greens were quick. The pace of play enabled a 3 1/2 hour round. Friendly ambassadors. Pro shop staff took great care of us seniors.

Jaime Davenport

I carry a 5.7 handicap index. This is a challenging course with good greens (albeit small) and it's run by fantastic people. Oh, and it's BYOB (no liquor license).

C. WINN PELLETT

The only course in the city limits of Atlanta that held a PGA event is really fun

Wahid Tawfik

Course in great condition. Very friendly and helpful staff. Overall, excellent value.

Ed K

Nice challenge. But grass was all yellow and not looking good.

Pete Kane

Good Course with fast greens. Gets slow at times. Need to work on speeding up play.

Bobby Donlan

A little wet, not their fault, cart path only, course is in great shape, lush and green, we played in 4 1/2 hours, back this Thursday!

Balakrishna Vemulapalli

Very well maintained golf course surrounded by walking trail.

khanh lanh

beautiful

Paul Turner

Nice course in good shape

Tyler Phillips

The Rangers are rude and do not understand pace of play. We were asked to pick up our ball and move to the next hole after no prior warning to politely speed it up. We were on hole 13 at 3:50 minutes which is maybe 8-10 minutes behind pace. No one was waiting behind us. We finished 4:43 minutes for the round and I'm shocked at the service and unprofessional attitude of these 2 Rangers. I think one was Jim but not sure. We brought 2 guys who just moved here from Chicago and they will not be playing there again, nor will I. For $50 there are many courses that provide great service and respectful staff near Atlanta. I play 50 rounds per year and usually 10 at North Fulton. No longer will that be happening. Wish I had better news but this was completely unacceptable.

Jesse Wu

The greens were very good and fast. The green of hole # 2, #9, #10, #12, #18 are very challenging. The fairways are getting better each year. The club house and washrooms are getting better after the renovation recently.

Logan G

One star for upkeeping up the course. This place is poorly managed for the price. They do nothing to group singles with other players so you end up being stuck behind multiple singles in a row some walking, some carting and it’s becomes a cluster when those singles run into a foursome that’s playing slow. You would think those singles would self manage and group themselves up but nope. They do nothing about keeping people within a time frame either so those players who are slow just continue to cause a queue throughout the day. If your significant other just likes to ride along and read while you play don’t come here bc they want to charge you full price. If it’s pouring rain sorry no rain checks. There’s also no range. I’ve been here multiple times with multiple groups and each and every time its more of the same. Go get a better experience outside the city for this price.

Shaun Rawls

Nice course in a fantasticly convenient location.

Shaun Michael

Nice course right in Buckhead. However since it's so close to the city, you have lots of below par golfers. Makes for the pace of play to be brutal! Get out early!

John Nuesse

Good quality public course, decent greens and fairways, readily accessible location, friendly staff.

Matt Katis

Best public course in Atlanta

Andrew Favant

Forepass!!! The course is in great shape, but watch out for all the geese! They get ornery because they have a small Abdullah oblongata.

Jeremy Robbins

Great conditions, great rates.

Peg Davis

Nothing fancy in the clubhouse at all: a big screen with the golf channel going, your basic supplies for the game, plus hot dogs and plenty of beverages, oh yeah, and a beautiful, challenging course for a bargain price!! Thank you, City of Atlanta! North Fulton is pretty near perfect in my book.

David Lowery

Had fun. Good shape.

stephen

Probably the best public course on the planet... Its difficult to play. You will lose more balls then you're use to.

Brian Berger

Course was ok. Beautiful scenery, just not in the best shape. Would prob play again though

Will Robinson

No driving range. No alcohol and no cart service. Also very little food.

Gary Brooks

Wow great golf course wonderful staff

Alex Krempa

Fun to play. course is not perfect but good for the price.

Jennifer Duncan

The basic layout has tremendous potential, most notably on the back nine, albeit minimalist grounds keeping by the current management team turns what could be a really nice course into a classic muni. Complete disregard for managing pace-of-play on weekends and Friday afternoons is inexplicable and forces decent to good players to suffer from exceptionally slow pace of a few hackers. A half-dozen long par fours (holes 4, 9,12,13,15 and 18) are a real strength. The par threes are solid, two great tee shots (8,14) and two ho-hum holes. The are three par five's and all are memorable for the wrong reasons. This trio were designed as three shot holes at a time when technology was less aggressive. Long hitters can't pull driver on 5 or 17 for fear of hitting the ball through the fairway and into a hazard. Hitting three consecutive irons on par fives is uneventful, to say the least. While driver is an option on hole 10, the "bowling alley" landing area with accompanying left-to-right sloping fairway towards OB often ruins long, non-drawing drawing tee shots. The 18th is a beast and should be converted to a par five (par moving from 71 to 72) as 446 yards uphill-playing more like 470 would be a solid PGA hole. If you can't play during the week, early AM on weekends is the only option as pace-of-play degrades from 830AM on.

Chris Metken

Cheap, rough around the edges, but worth playing

Jake Franco

If I could give 0 stars I would. I don't know if he was a manager or regular employee? His name is Robbie, he was extremely rude and I'm appalled with the way he treated us. I play golf 4-5 times a week. I've never encountered someone with such poor customer service anywhere, ever. Robbie is a joke.

Rob Weinkle

I don't know what these other people are talking about..I cannot say enough about how welcoming Anthony and Merrick was when we entered the pro shop to pay for green fees. They were so personable and friendly. The starter was the best. He was also very welcoming and even gave me some tips on the first few holes. The ranger was also so nice. He went beyond the call to find out if it was "cart path only" or not. He let us know we could go to our ball with our cart. We saw the the ranger and starter make their rounds several times during our 4 hour round to keep people moving. The course was in excellent condition and greens were immaculate. What a great day!!! We will definitely be back. Rates were very reasonable and WHAT an awesome park where it is located.

I can primarily only speak to my experience with the staff as I only played through 3 mediocre holes before getting rained out. This was by far the worst experience I have ever had as a paying customer in general; and I don't believe I have ever been so publicly disrespected before in my life. After teeing off at 1PM and making it through 3 holes, a storm rolled in raining us out. After taking cover for about 45 minutes under a wooden canopy off of the 4th hole (along with maintenance staff), we made our way to the clubhouse at 2:30 (less than an hour prior to this review). When we requested a rain check from the pro shop, a member of the staff (Robbie) decided to make a public mockery of our request and refused to issue us our rain check. We explained we had only made it through three holes of golf before taking cover with staff for nearly an hour, but that didn't suffice. Amidst other unwarranted comments we were told that we "must be the worst slowest golfers in the world of you only made it through three holes", "didn't only play three holes, you're full of...", "if you have issues I can send you to 'Golf Now' since that's where you bought your tickets." All of this with a raised voice in front of a dozen other guests and another employee who finally attempted to cool him down and ushered him away . As a business owner, I would have fired my employee on the spot for treating customers the way we were treated; and this doesn't even scratch the surface of the 5 minute exchange that nearly escalated. I did try reaching both the general manager and marketing magner by phone to formally complain and ofcourse both voice mailboxes are full. I wouldn't expect anything special with your experience at N Fulton Golfcourse.

Ryan Lewis

Doing well considering the very recent management change. Could've used more juice in the electric carts.

Chris Puchala

No driving range. Poor parking.

James Palmer

Nice

John sh

Nice clean area.

anthony mcmillan

Good cours, $33.

Matthew Glenn

Never even got to the course. Called to book a tee time and after my experience with the staff on the phone and the other reviews that speak of the horrible staff I figured that with all the courses in Atlanta I didn't need to go where I didn't feel I was welcomed. All the reviews that are low star ratings have all to do with the staff. This may be a clue for the city of Atlanta. They say the customer rules, not at this establishment.

Christopher Green

This location is one of Atlanta's finest areas. Great entertainment and wonderful restaurants plus so much more!

Rashi Parham

Very Nice Golf Course for an average golfer like myself. Not too much water and enough Par-able holes. The parking really does suck over here because you have to deal with Chastain Park traffic

Sara Mccrory

Very incompetent rude staff. Course is mud. Go somewhere else.

Tyson Patrick

Nice track. Enjoyed it.

Bill Schmidt

Cart path only made it a slow round but will probably pay off condition wise. Course is in best condition in many years.

Mark Hildebrand

This is the best way to get a replacement for your own home and your car.

steven tully

Great local place to play. 4 hour weekend round while walking not bad place.

Mark Ervin

Beautiful golf course. After greens dried rolling true
