Course Overview
Chalk Mountain Golf Course in Atascadero, California offers an engaging 18-hole experience that balances challenge with approachability for players of varying skill levels.

Chalk is my home course. With the new range setup, love seeing all the golfers out there. Played Chalk this past weekend. Pace was slower...wished the Marshal was out their managing the pace and grouping slow singles and pairs. Otherwise, I always enjoy the course. Wish they could turn down the summer temperatures though...love the extra daylight lately.

Five Stars – Fun, Challenging, and Tasty! Chalk Mountain was such a blast! The course was fun and tough—definitely kept me on my toes, but in the best way. Super glad I got the chance to play here. On the turn, we had to try the world-famous hot dog—and yep, it absolutely lived up to the hype. So good! Everyone we met was super friendly and welcoming, from the pro shop to the snack bar. Great vibes all around. Already looking forward to coming back!

Hole number 1 should be illegal with the severe slope of the fairway. The fairways weren't in good shape. But its a fun course to play, Ill be back.

Very Polite staff in the Pro Shop. Golf Carts are nice and clean. The 18 hole gold course is in great shape. Nice fairways and greens are also nice. The golf course is challenging but worth the exciting time. Highly recommend Chalk Mountain Golf course.

Affordable and fun. I walked during the heat wave this afternoon. Go early or get a cart with plenty of water. A great drive will get you on in 2 or 3. I would come back. ⛳️ 🏌️♂️

Good course with some challenges on the back 9. Forgiving fairways on some holes. Lots of wildlife. Good value.
