Green Course at Golden Horseshoe Golf Club

Booked as a single, paired with a local. Finished in under 4 hrs. Ample landing areas, demanding approach shots. Early February, dormant fairway and rough, greens in great shape and rolled true. Don't be fooled by the practice green...at least this time of year, on course greens nowhere near as severe. Downhill par 3s take one less club. Uphill par 4s and 5s, take at least 1, if not 2 club ups. Looking forward to a return trip to see how course plays during warmer months.

Nicely appointed track! Staff was great and easy to get around! I might become a member!

We had a lot of rain this week, but WOW.. every bunker had at least 18 inches of standing water in it. No drainage at all. For the money it wasn't terrible, but I was surprised at the amount of water.

A must play!! Excellent trek!! Enjoyable course to play!!

Easily accessed. Nice, almost private course. People were friendly. Nice views especially on the hillsides and the water during the Fall. Reasonably good condition. Greens are challenging.

Have played it twice now, and it’s one of my favorite courses. Conditions were great both times. A few holes are tricky, but overall the course is fair and somewhat forgiving. Moguls are on both sides of many fairways, and unless you hit it on the non fairway side of the moguls, the ball will generally funnel back toward the fairway. Greens are pretty uniform with speed.

While the Gold has the Par 3’s the Green has the Par 5’s including 18 which is a great finishing hole. The conditions are great and the greens are firm and fast.

First time playing this course and it was a wonderful round of golf. Great staff from beginning to end. Pace of play was on point with a 4 hour 10 minute round. Greens and course were in really good shape. Will definitely be traveling back to Williamsburg to play this course again.

It is appropriate that Golden Horseshoe’s Green course sits at a mile-and-a-half remove from its older sibling. Juxtaposing its high-1990s styling with the traditional architecture of Colonial Williamsburg might have created too strange a contrast.

Few golf courses are purer expressions of Rees Jones’ mid-career vision. More than 100 bunkers – both flat-bottom circles and meandering amoebas – line fairways and greens that wind through dense forest and wetlands. They mingle with ever-present containment mounding that most plastic surgeons would consider ambitious. The putting surfaces themselves feature mostly distinct decks and subtle overall tilts. While the par 4s are rather monotonous, the course does draw strength from its par 5s, particularly the 15th and 18th, which aims straight at the clubhouse for a stately finish well in line with the cacophony that precedes. Challenging and well-kept, with particularly smooth putting surfaces, the Green is best viewed as a modern museum-piece golf course, and best by erring on the shorter side when choosing your tee box.

Course design & condition are exceptional. Bunkers don’t drain well, leading to inconsistency from one hole to the next. Also, we played in 94 degrees and there were no water coolers or beverage carts on the course, making it impossible to stay hydrated. Need to put water coolers every second or third hole. With attention to these issues, the course could be exceptional with very little extra effort & cost.

Excellent round of golf. Manicured fairways that are wide and forgiving. Greens are immaculate. Great outing with friends and family.

Course was in excellent shape. Greens were very good.staff was very friendly. Highly recommend playing this course.

I was on vacation and booked a foursome through GolfNow. Unfortunately my father in law’s knee was bothering him and he couldn’t play, which I tried calling the course the night before to let them know but the pro shop closed at 5pm so no one answered the phone when I called at 6:15pm. So I showed up with a threesome which originally they said was not a problem. We paid $76 per golfer with everything which was totally fair. We had to rent clubs for $60 per guy and the clubs were great for the righty’s and average for me the lefty, which I totally expected. We bought 12 beers on the course and two cigars. Two days later they notify GolfNow that one golfer didn’t show up so they bill me for the one no show. Absolutely ridiculous after already paying the booking fees and spending $120 in club rentals, plus everything else we bought on the course. This has happened many of times in New York wether it be someone couldn’t get out of work, sick, etc and never once in over 20 years have I ever been billed for a no show. Regardless how friendly the staff was and the course conditions, I will never go back to either of their courses again. We go on vacation there every year and I will never choose this course again because that’s totally ridiculous if you ask me. I hope you all feel the same as I do

This is the second time I’ve played this course. Unlike many of the courses in the area they don’t overbook and you won’t spend forever on the tee waiting to play. The greens are well maintained and the staff is very friendly, the price is good for the conditions of the course and on par with Kiskiak or Kiln Creek.
