Chatata Valley Golf & Country Club

The course is now called Flagstone and the staff is very welcoming. I was visiting from out of town and the owner took the time to reach out to a female golfer to see if she was available to play with me. She was and we had a great time! The course was in excellent condition. The challenge of the course includes (1) Tall grass on the edge of the fairways. (2) The greens were fast and you really had to know the breaks - lucky for me I played with someone with course knowledge otherwise I could see approach shots rolling off the green if you didn't know the slope. The other unique thing - there are no bunkers. They clearly used to be bunkers but they are all filling in with grass. Also, water is really not an issue on this course. There is some water but I would not say it is in play for most golfers (playing the forward tees). There is a creek on the side of #1 and #10 but you really have to hit your driver really off line for it to be an impact (you are more likely to lose your ball in the tall grass). It's a fun course and I recommend you play it if you are in the area.

It’s a nice course. Greens and fairways maintained pretty well. Bathrooms on the course, NOT SO MUCH. Always dirty and out of soap. Prices are fair, and hope the new owners take pride in the course (and bathrooms)!

Layout of the course was nice but challenging. Went in the Kate afternoon and even though we had a tee time. We still had to wait between holes cause everyone was on top of each other. But the greens and fairways were in good shape.
