Charbonneau Country Club sits in a quiet spot surrounded by houses, and it's known for a special 27-hole executive golf course designed by Ted Robinson, Sr., so you'll find three nine-hole sides called Green, Red, and Yellow, with each course made up of four short par 4s and five long par 3s, which sometimes stretch out to nearly 190 yards from the blue tees, and water comes into play on six holes so play calls for some focus, with trees lining the fairways and out-of-bounds on most holes because homes are close, but there's a pretty good balance since longer hitters could reach some of those par 4s and there's plenty of room for practice with a full grass driving range, putting and chipping greens, and an area for sand shots, and everything tends to be in good shape with firm, quick greens and fairways that roll but still feel lush, and while the bunkers hold enough sand, they may not always be freshly raked, yet that doesn't seem to bother most folks.
Golfers track their scores, read reviews, and book tee times online, and can use GPS, mapping, and database tools provided by GolfTraxx, so those who want to keep tabs on play or just remember past rounds have a way to do it, and social leagues come together for both teams and individual matches, ending with champions, while a friendly teaching staff offers lessons and golf tips, and the system sends out daily advice plus videos covering everything from iron shots to putting, either through the club or from partners like the Golf Channel.
The club's walkable courses encourage play without a cart, but carts and clubs are ready to rent if needed, and golf attire is required, with no metal spikes allowed and no caddies available, while an online store runs on credit cards, offering basic gear, and there's a scorecard that can be downloaded and printed at home. The main clubhouse features a pro shop, a restaurant with full bar, a snack bar, a library, an arts room, and spaces for resident-organized activities, and there's a big banquet room plus an outdoor event pavilion for special gatherings, golf tournaments, or even weddings, and with scheduled daily activities, music, and movie nights, there's something different going on most days.
Rooms come furnished with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and telephones, giving comfortable choices for residents who want privacy but need access to extra help, and the community provides round-the-clock supervision and help with bathing, dressing, and medicine, plus a 24-hour call system to support safety. Additional services include move-in support, housekeeping, transportation, and parking, so it's easier for residents to settle in. There are outdoor walking paths, fitness and wellness rooms, a game room, a movie theater, and spaces for arts and other programs, and staff encourage residents to join in or lead activities themselves, keeping everyone as involved as they wish.
The club's focus is on easy, shorter play-ideal for those working on their short game or with less time to spare-and all three nines measure just over 2,000 yards each, with scenic holes tucked under hardwood trees and geese-free grounds. There's a strong social feeling here, and the place is especially suited to families and players at any level, owing to rolling fairways, accessible lengths, and multiple sets of tees to fit how everyone plays. The club gets support from national golf programs, hosts outings and weddings, and stays open all year, so residents and guests stay active, learn new skills, and enjoy the company of others in a relaxed, well-kept setting.
