Royal New Kent Golf Club

The course was in good shape for the end of November. This was my first time playing it and found it challenging but fair. Found it enjoyable except for the pace of play. Several times came to tee box and had a group in the fairway one on the tee and us. One hole actually had two groups on the tee ahead of us. Would play again and hope the pace was better. Some really great golf holes.

Great challenging course with more challenging greens

The course was in great shape for the time of year. First time I have played this course and it was very challenging with the amount of elevation changes. It offered some very nice holes with wide open fairways, but also a few holes with some very challenging shots. Unfortunately I did think the course had a few to many path closed for the carts which made the day a whole lot more challenging and created a slower pace of play. We were able to play today on abnormally hot day for this late in the season. That being said I was surprised that there was not concessions cart or water coolers set up on the course. Overall though it was a very challenging and beautiful course.

First time playing the course. I would love to come back.

I thought the course was terrific! It was fun to find such a gem in the Williamsburg area. Now having said that, this course is challenging with a capital C. This is not for beginners. Unfortunately that's what was in front of us in a foursome of 2 golfers and 2 beginners and they were playing form the black tees. They were way over their heads and consequently it turned into a five hour round. The staff was no help, in fact the few guys I talked to, checking in etc, were on the gruff side. The greens were in excellent shape and very fast. Watch out for the 3 putts!

Beautiful course
Very interesting and challenging holes.

Love playing RNK, always in good shape. You need
To be on top of your game every shot. Need a bigger challenge? Go back a set or two on the tees !

Everything about the course was awesome.
No cart on course and the wait to get food on the turn really needs improvement limited choices and the wait was way too long

Bring your A game to Royal New Kent. Friendly, helpful staff. The course was in awesome shape, with great pace of play. Will certainly return.

The shop manager said it was a tough walk and when I asked about cart use for handicap players and said stay on paths...not helpful...course was tricked up with hills and ravines...forced carrys and blind shots...and greens were recently aerated...never play it again

Probably the best designed and most natural beauty course I have played.

Great layout if you are a Strantz fan which I am. Course condition was a little rough but I would recommend playing there.

Entering a golf course which embraces the natural beauty of Virginia. The golf course holes were all separate from each other having their own identity. No houses on the course meant you could concentrate on the shot at hand. Course conditions were spectacular. The best and most interesting course I have played to date. Full pro shop, new gas carts and hallways are lined with original memorabilia from the golf course architect. Treat yourself and go play.

Love the challenge of this course. Would be great if the sand traps were better maintained. Will try to play again on next visit to the Williamsburg area.

The course is beautiful. staff is excellent. course is severe target golf, I mean PINPOINT. If you're a great golfer, fine; but if you're an 85-100 shooter, add at least 10 strokes. Not a long course, but too tough for a 90's shooter.

Played this course over 50 times and was a member years ago. This place has sky rocketed in price. The greens are made out like hard pan sod and brown in color super fast with several weeds growing through on certain holes. Not to mention they have fairway grass problems on 17. Bunkers are better then they used to be. I just don’t understand the price. This new ownership is driving it straight back into the ground because there is no way they are getting the play for the price unless they are more catering to out of towners or people that have never played it before. Why do you think Brickshires parking lot is so packed and when you ride by ? royal you see no one but a few cars. It’s the price and the conditions that sets them apart. This guy charges 98$ and has no deals after 12pm on any day. 9 holes is outrageous. It’s sad because at a decent rate that course would be booming. I’m sure they are looking to sell again or just trying to pocket as much as they can before they start to let it go and run out of money. It’s sad because it was a great place to play and it’s a challenge.
