Chesapeake Golf Club
About
Chesapeake Golf Club sits tucked away in the idyllic village of Las Gaviotas, conveniently situated just 15 minutes from downtown Norfolk. Boasting some of the best greens in the Tidewater area, the club offers the amenities of a private club with the fees of a public golf course. The layout will challenge you with rolling fairways and tricky doglegs. Water hazards come into play frequently so be prepared for a few intimidating blind shots over water. Mature trees line the rolling fairways and there are also strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. The manageable 6,278-yard length is approachable for beginners yet there are still holes that long hitters will enjoy. Chesapeake Golf Club is a course that will test your skills but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Amazing shape
This course is in great shape and played like a champion course. Great weather and great day if golf.
Great time
Our group had a great time playing. It was my first time playing a Chesapeake golf course. The course and the greens are in excellent condition and we will be back to play soon.

Better than before!!
I have to hand it to the staff at Chesapeake Golf Club. They have done some great work out on the course to get it in really good shape. Most tee boxes are in fine shape. The fairways are well maintained. The greens are as good as any around the area. It is a great course for the value.
Great course for a day for Golf
The course was in great shape. 90 degree cart rule which I feel should be standard on all golf courses unless it's wet to keep the fairways in good shape. Greens had a good pace and for the most part, the tee boxes were very good.
Course needs work
This course needs a lot of work. The layout is challenging to begin with but when you combine that with tees that weren't mowed and fairways full of water it made for a miserable round. I am a 9 !handicap and play a lot of golf and I wouldn't play here again for free. I'd like to offer some positive statement but I can't think of anything. I wouldn't want someone to spend a day of their vacation on this course like I did.

Great Rate
This course is always reasonably priced. It is a great course to teach my 9 year old son the game of golf. It has the way up tees that make the game fun for him. Fairways and greens are in great shape right now.
Fun course
This course is the most reasonably priced close to my home
Good course
Good course, pace of play was great on the front nine, back nine was a lot slower. Overall it is a course I recommend and will be playing again.
Pure Garbage
From the moment we stepped foot into the pro shop it was clear they were either too busy or didn't care people were there to golf. The Marshall from what I could tell never left the club house. 3 hour front nine I guess is normal. Made the turn and ran inside real quick to ask where the Marshall was only to see a old folks foursome jump in front of us on the tee. Pro shop said they sat down to eat lunch and they couldn't do anything about it. Credit card machines were down. Couldn't chip on an actual green for practice. Range was completely closed. This place is an absolute garbage excuse for a golf course with incompetent staff.
MotionlessMerc,
I'm very sorry about your experience you had with us.
Our Customers come first and I'm sorry about how you treated and the overall atmosphere of the course and the day.
We do limit chipping to the chipping green only and I understand your frustration with the range and the pace of play.
Give us another try on me!!
Please give me a call on my cell at 804-436-6483 or email me at charleslynnpga@yahoo.com
And I'll be more then happy to take care of your next round
Sincerely,

On point course
Chesapeake golf course has definately stepped up there game. This course is in great shape and a bargain as well.
The greens were excellent
Was there. Early around 7:17 tee time and was complete at 11:20 , there was a tornament at 8:30
Course management
It's a great course that I have been playing for years. Many of the holes make you think about where you want to be off the tee. Some of the par 4s and 5s require an iron off the tee if you're not a long enough hitter to clear the water mid fairway. Well managed facility.

WOW!! Thank you for that Amazing Review!!! Can't wait to have you have back out here.
