Green Course at Golden Horseshoe Golf Club

Clearly, the Williamsburg area has not received much rain. I noticed the ponds at The Green were very low and looked like they were only 1/4 full. There were certainly some dry, hard-packed areas on the fringe of some greens (not too many), and around the paths leading into the fairways. But the fairways were in good shape, as were the bunkers. Additionally, the bunkers were manicured and edged nicely. The greens showed no signs of aeration (earlier reviews) and they were extremely fast with some tough reads. The only area which really showed the need for TLC were the tee boxes...they were almost bare of grass. I love the layout of this course, the mounding bordering so many of the fairways, and the "forest" feel (no houses on the course). The staff are always welcoming and helpful as well.

I can honestly say that this is the worst course I played in Williamsburg. It clearly needs help. The Gold course gets all the attention. They did not accept or confirm GN tee time that I requested which was cheaper than a rate to a group I was playing in. At least 13 tee boxes have very little grass. While it did rain a bit the week I played, it was soggy. The greens were the worst I have played in years. Aeration with finger size holes was done 3 weeks ago, so I was told, but they had not healed or top dressed properly. Personally they were punched to early as the course gets very little sun until close to noon and sits in a low area. I would not recommend this course for at least 2-3 months. Williamsburg National is in great shape.0

How can you even charge any money for this course ???

Playing in a tournament on the US Am tour and the conditions were horrific.

Fairways were mostly dirt and the rough was very patchy.

The greens were punched with huge holes that weren’t even filled with sand.

The greens were awful and unputtable ....... ridiculous.

Even the practice range was all dirt ........ why don’t you put us on the mats at least. Full course on a Saturday and no beverage carts

I will NEVER spend another dime here EVER

Today the course was in good shape. They had just recently aerated so the greens where a little bumpy but that’s understandable. The only thing that was little challenging was the bunkers seems to be hard. But I guess if would have stayed out of them, they would not have been that bad LOL ! Overall great courses. I will be back!

First time playing this course and enjoyed the challenges . Staff very friendly and accommodating. Looking back to playing it again.

I regularly play this course and for this time of year it was in great shape, considering all the rain and snow we’ve had over the last couple of weeks!

We teed of at 1 and at 4 pm we made the turn

Paid for 18 but only played 9

I get it’s a holiday round but they should have given us a 9 hole rain check when we asked

I've played here before, but no more. The course condition were terrible. Very little green grass on the fairways. Greens were nice. Won't be going back.

Really nice course with friendly people and excellent amenities! Highly recommend

very fun course, super wooded/rustic, really nice ambiance. some unique and challenging holes, especially the par 3's over water and waste, with elevation changes. conditions were good, greens quick. tee boxes a little wet/messy on our morning. had a great time overall would play again.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing this course. It was raining and very wet but I still thought it was in great shape and the putting greens especially well kept.

I love the layout of The Green, and try to play it whenever I'm in Williamsburg. The course was in excellent condition from tee to green. The rough was even nice. The only reason I gave it 4 starts vs 5 is because some of the bunkers (not all) had some standing water and wall erosion from the recent rains. The crew just hadn't fixed it yet. The pace was good on the front nine, but then we rain into a group of players who really didn't know how to play...it took them six shots to get to the 150 yard marker (maybe they should have played from a more forward tee!). Luckily, it was only the last five holes. I called at 11:30 to see if I could get on and the lady who answered the phone was so warm and accommodating...I was teeing off at 12:40. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. The Green course is underrated compared to it's sister course, The Gold; however, it's a very different look and feel and definitely worth playing. You will be surprised!

Very beautiful course and well maintained. Cart path only due to the recent rains but the greens sped up throughout the morning. Very fast greens. Outstanding staff and the starter was very knowledgeable of shot selection and course management. Very slow pace of play. The group ahead of me that I passed on hole 13 was running about a 5.5 hour round. Management was quick to keep them moving and speed up their round. I will definitely be coming back.

Had a great experience today at the Golden Horseshoe. They paired me up with a member (nice gentleman) that likes to walk and we were the 1st ones off. We finished in under 3 hours and had a great time. Because of all the heavy rain this week it was cart path only. I expected the course would be very wet, however, it was better than expected. Course was very playable. Of course there was not much roll. Greens were in great shape and the speed was perfect. Thanks Golden Horseshoe for a wonderful experience.
