Mill Quarter Plantation Country Club

I wanted to get in a Sunday AM round and saw Mill Quarter had some openings. I planned on walking because I wouldn’t know any of the other players in my 4some. The guy at the Pro Shop allowed me to ride solo - and waived the usual up charge. Thanks! Course was in good shape (even after all the massive rain we’ve gotten lately). Greens were true and the layout is excellent.

Really liked the course and was in pretty good shape. However, took me 2 hours and 30 minutes to play the back 9 after getting behind a foursome and threesome. Had to wait 5-10 minutes for each shot to play. When asking the Ranger if he could speed them up or get them to let me play through he said it was my fault for coming out there as a single. Takes the fun out of it a little when it’s 95 degrees by the time you finish.

Great day of golf!! Really hot day but we love to play and we can't resist anytime we have a chance to play.

Course was in great

condition. Fairways were a little long but greens were true, not to fast and not to slow. Pace of play was perfect!!

Played early Sunday morning with lots of dew on the ground. Pace was great, 4:05 walking with 2 others in carts. We were the third group out. Tee boxes were a little rough. Longer grass, but not fully covered. Many were very uneven but you can move around and tee the ball so not too much of a problem. Fairways were in good shape for this price course. Consistent lies in most of the fairways I played. Rough was healthy, even more difficult when wet. Bunkers were not raked and hard packed. With the Covid-19 conditions these were about average. Bent grass greens were delightful. Nice surprise. They were very uniform and you got a consistent roll. Probably rolling about an 8. Really held well on your approach shots so you could go right at the flag if you wanted. Not a lot of undulation and easy to read breaks. Only other comment would be to cut a pro path from the tees to the fairway. Fairly deep and wet grass for the walkers. It would speed up the walking pace. Nice course for the price.

We played on a Wednesday. Course was pretty packed , but played in 3 hours 38 minutes as a threesome. I’ve played all up and down east coast, including PGA championship golf courses. These greens are in my top 10. No they’re not fast, but they are SMOOTH, putt true & in beautiful shape. Course has a good layout, par 3s are tough but fair. I truly can’t wait to come back and play. More courses should have reasonable prices like this.

Job well done staff!

Course is in good shape with the greens a little slow, but it was midweek, so they will probably cut the greens for the weekend, should speed up a little. The people at the course are always friendly and at $32 its a good deal.

We just played the course June 1 , it was in good condition greens a little slow.

lots of play going on and $33 senior rate is a very good value. Those people interested in social distancing you can have your own cart

For the money the course isn’t in good condition. Dirt patches in fairways WAY to much. Tee boxes were very mediocre. Greens were in good condition. Traps were muddy in most holes.

When I can play for under $50 elsewhere and have much better conditions it makes me want to steer clear of Mill Quarter.

There were a couple jokes that were a little rough due to water that has obviously been on the course but overall it was in great shape. Greens were very fair and not too fast or slow. I’ve played several times over the last year or two and in my opinion this is the best shape the course has been in. Will he playing again soon.

Very wet conditions. Close and convenient. All considered, a good course.

Course is great. Greens are well cared for. I picked a day and time that every Joe Schmo wanted to play around and I regret it. 4somes everywhere. Couldnt play through due to other large groups ahead of them. I'd like to return and try again another day that I can enjoy this place.

Mill Quarter offers an inviting and relaxed setting for the casual golfer to enjoy at a price that won’t anger the wife.

The biggest takeaway for me on the course in both conditions and layout is the soft, slow, receptive greens. While you really have to put some force behind even medium-length putts, the flipside is that approach shots that land on the green tend to stay on the green, even if you come in low.

Conditions were a bit wet when I played but even still, the bentgrass greens are very soft (divot tool a must). The greens (and the rest of the course) are generally in very good condition with only a couple areas needing repair. My only real complaint on the conditions is the amount of wear the greens show but it’s far from unacceptable.

The layout here has a bit of a split personality that starts you off with some pretty narrow fairways and challenging tee shots. But that gives way to several holes in a row that are wide open. I found the course to play easier than the slope indicated (though I was having an unusually good round) and the design seems to be simple enough not to be intimidating yet complex enough to give each hole its own character.

The staff here is pretty friendly and the starter/marshal was diligent in his duties. The lack of a beverage cart early on a rainy morning didn't offend me.

I paid about $40 for walking 18 on a weekend morning which is about right for this course. I’ll be back again when it’s not as wet and when there isn’t a big tournament taking up half the course.

This was my first time playing Mill Quarter, and I was not impressed. Before my round, I was talking to one of the employees and he hyped this place up like it was Augusta National. This is a direct quote of what he said to me before the round, "These greens are fast, probably a 12 on the stimp-meter, and the rough, boy is it brutal. This is probably one of the closest things to a US Open that you will play in the Richmond area." I went to the putting green and quickly realized that this guy was so wrong it wasn't even funny. Honestly, I would say the greens ran no faster than a four. They were some of the slowest greens that I have ever putted on. Then, the rough, that he claimed was US Open esque? This stuff was some of the thinnest stuff that I have played on. It was like the first cut at most places. The fact that he even mentioned US Open in the same breath as Mill Quarter Plantation is a disgrace.

The course conditions at best are 2 stars. Some of the fairways are inconsistently cut, the bunkers are in poor shape, and on many of the holes are areas where several trees have been cut down, and play as a hazard (I guess).

The layout isn't really special. The front nine is pretty plain Jane, and the back doesn't have more than a couple of quality holes.

The course is wide open, and although I did enjoy the par three 13th, par five 15th, and par five 17th, it wasn't enough to make up for the lack of exciting holes on the front.

The practice facilities are subpar, to say the least. There is a driving range with big signs signaling the yardage, but that's it. It's pretty much a large field with signs (and the yardages aren't even measured correctly). There is a putting green, but no chipping green, and the putting green is slow with ball marks all over it (from people chipping).

I do not recommend Mill Quarter and even though I know it is relatively inexpensive, it is out in the middle of nowhere, far from central Richmond. This isn't on the verge of a one-star course, but it isn't far from it.

This is one of the best courses I have played. It provides wide fairways, so this course is great for beginners. It is also has some challenging greens, so it is great for people with experience. This course is one of the only courses great for beginners and golfers with expierence. The fairways and greens are well taken care of. The staff is amazing. I have to drive a little farther to get to this course, but it is definitely worth it.
