Red Wing Lake Golf Course

This was the first time playing in Virginia Beach and the course was well maintained for a public course. It was raining quite a bit and there was very little puddling on the greens or fairways. Was still 90*. Generous fairways. Wide flat greens. Water hazards are avoidable with course management. Only problem was a marshal who was putting us on the clock when the problem was the group in front of us. This was an unnecessary commentary particularly when conditions were basically lift, clean and place.

This was the first time I had been to Redwing in a long time.The course was in very good shape and as were the practice areas. Pace of play was very good 18 holes in 3 and 1/2 hours with a stop at the club house at the turn. The course is well marked. An enjoyable day at the golf course.We were at twosome and we got paired up with a local who was quite helpful in sharing local knowledge.

I play Red Wing regularly. It's traditional layout through the wood of eastern Virginia. There are no houses on course so it feels old school in a good way. There's a reasonable amount of water, not a lot of sand traps, and the fronts of most greens are open so you can go right at them. There's a wide selection of tee boxes to vary the length and challenge. The fairways are good, but not lush and there's not a lot of rough. Often if your off the fairway, your in woods, usually with a shot out. It's playable for different skill levels. There's a good amount of wildlife and you'll see herons, egrets, osprey, bluebirds, and sometimes bald eagles that nest in the trees on the course. You'll also likely see F18's, the Navy base is near by. You may here gunfire from the base practice range next to the course so don't be surprised by the noises. It's the sound of freedom in this area. The course is a good value, especially during the week and for seniors.

Beautiful course and it played well. Pace of play was decent. First day we played we were paired with 2 elder gentlemen that had prior experience with the course and we had a fabulous time. We decided to play the course again the following day and we were a bit offended by the starter that "felt it was not right that 2 women were paired up with 2 black men and he thought we should know that". This felt a bit racist and was really disturbing. Overall we really enjoyed the course and would recommend it, but would hope the course management might review their ethics policies with employees.

Friendly staff and good conditions. Fairways are a little thin, but the course layout and good greens made up for it. Well worth the price.

This was my first visit to this course. I found the course to be in relatively good shape. Fairways were wide and if you found yourself in trouble, it was usually an easy out. The greens, while rock hard, were true and fast. I will certainly return when I'm back in town. Staff was friendly as well.

They aerated the greens recently but the grass and course is looking good with all the cold weather we had this winter.

Front nine played in 1 3/4 hrs back nine slower played in 2 1/4. Overall decent course tended to play harder due to the wind.

Nice natural setting. Grass was a little thin in the fairways because of being dormant and a lot of cart traffic but I'm sure it thickens up in the summer. Greens were in great shape. Good course for all levels of players.

I like close to me, challenge course, nice people very good location very good price

Course is very playable for all golfers. great venue, highly recommended.

This is our favorite course in Virginia Beach. We play it more then any other golf course at the beach. Can not beat it for the price and condition. Thanks to the staff!!!

Outstanding condition on all fairways and greens. Very friendly staff and the best buy for your money in the Virginia Beach area.

Kudos to the City and how they maintain this beautiful course. The greens are good, the fairways good and the pace of play was good and the price was Great. No houses to look at and no dogs barking from the sides while you are playing.

Redwing provides enjoyment for all levels of golfer. Course condition has remained very good in spite of the amount of play it gets. Finishing the front nine and back nine with par fives will make sure you are awake and challenged throughout the round.
Well worth the play.

the course is well kept - greens in good shape, fairways are nice but does not really cater to locals or seniors the way it should

Red Wing Lake was a very nice course with an outstanding staff! This course is well maintained and plays fair.

If you hate slow play, don't play here. No rangers to move slow groups along or to advise slow groups to allow faster groups (like our twosome) to play through. Other than that, the course is nice but unless you enjoy 5 hour rounds, play somewhere else.

Fairways are very generous, and rough is not very high. Golfers need to repair ball marks on greens!

Great course layout everything was well maintained. The layout is nice because you essentially play a north course (front 9) and a south course (back 9). There are a lot of dog legs which made the course fun. The only draw back i would say was the range balls. It really just depends on how much warm up you need. I usually hit a regular size bucket (which they referred to as a large bucket) and it was 7 bucks. a small bucket was 4 bucks. other then that great course its in my rotation.
