There’s something about living beside one of the most famous golf courses in the country. Even on a quiet Tuesday, it feels a little special.
Autumn Woods is a wooded community in the northeast corner of Chaska, just north of Highway 212, split into four parts: North, East, West and South. It’s part of the Jonathan community and has two neighborhood parks.
Autumn Woods West has about 50 traditional and craftsman single-family homes along the east side of Hazeltine National. Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What’s close by
Hazeltine National is right there, and Chaska Par 30 is nearby (see Chaska golf courses). Chaska Commons is about a mile away, and Pioneer Park and Two Twelve Medical Center are close. See Chaska parks and trails.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Autumn Woods West is served by School District 112 (Eastern Carver County Schools). Pioneer Ridge Middle School is one of the closest schools. Other nearby options include Jonathan Elementary, Chaska High School, Chanhassen High School and The World Learner School. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Associations: Homes here can belong to both the Jonathan Association and a neighborhood association. Ask what each one covers and costs.
- Golf nearby: For homes near Hazeltine National, ask about course easements and stray-ball exposure.
- Condition: Roof, windows, mechanicals and drainage tell you more about a home’s next ten years than the paint color does. Plan a professional inspection.

I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes for about two decades, and I build and remodel homes too. I know what makes a golf-course home hold its value.
