Denis Griffiths's 1996 Woodlands Course at Château Élan, the second public championship layout at the Braselton wine-resort estate, following the Chateau Course Griffiths built in 1989. Often called the most picturesque of the resort's three championship layouts, with views of the north Georgia foothills, sparkling lakes, and towering trees. The Woodlands plays 6,738 yards to par 72 with a 72.5 rating and 131 slope, shorter than the Chateau but regarded as slightly more challenging thanks to tree-lined holes that demand accuracy and rolling terrain that adds elevation change throughout. The identity is scenic parkland golf routed to showcase the property's forested core. A staple of the Atlanta-area public rotation and the visual standout of Château Élan's 63-hole complex. Pair with the Chateau for 36 at the resort, the obvious two-course Braselton weekend.
