About
When Hell's Point Golf Club opened in 1982, Golf Digest called it one of the best new courses and it was ranked as one of the 100 best-designed courses in the country. Renowned architect Rees Jones designed the course. He incorporated the many natural features provided by the golf course's location in the Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge. The fairways are edged with saltwater marshes and Jones included his signature sculpted bunkers along the greensides. Just a stone's throw from the ocean, the golf course is as scenic as it is challenging. The second hole is one of southeastern Virginia's toughest golf holes with out-of-bounds to the left, trees to the right, and a sloped fairway that leads to a well guarded, double-tiered green. This par 4 is the no. 1 handicap hole at When Hell's Point Golf Club.

The greens were in great shape. Photo submitted by wadedaffinee on 07/23/2014

Greens had not been mowed in 4 days. Putting accurately was more than difficult.
For me, Super senior tees would have been very helpful.
Nice layout, wide fairways , lots of water and sand
I enjoyed the GC
Staff was friendly and helpful
Course was in good shape
Lots of water and sand bunkers
Keep it in the fairway and you won’t have to worry
The wooden bridges over the river was nice
Great views of water and trees
I had an early T Time so no one ahead or behind me. No real snack bar or food.. water on the course was great ..No rest rooms??
This is a nice and challenging course,
This is a nice and challenging course, the pace of play was very slow at first, the pace picked up around the 7th hole. overall the experience was very good
Vacation round
Due to front nine aeration, we played the back nine twice. Greens were slow and needed many ball fixes. Some of the tees boxes were not mowed, but two of the were completely burned out. Fairways were good and it was 90 degrees for carts. Wildlife was present including the ever-present goats. Nice to see on vacation. We had 1018 tee time and there was no food ready at the turn, sort of a disappointment for my kids. Bring a lot of golf balls, because any shot offline was lost. Overall, we will return again.
Fun course, challenging for all levels.
The course was not in the best of conditions. There has been a bit of rain lately and the course was somewhat wet. Tee boxes hadn't been mowed and the greens were slow and fuzzy.
Needs Maintenance
Unfortunately, the course was very wet due to a few days of heavy rain showers which didn’t help the course conditions. Even so there is clearly a lack of maintenance, particularly the tee boxes and greens. The greens had many bare patches although the ball tended to run smoothly for the most. The tee boxes badly need cutting and reseeding. The fairways were in generally good condition, contrary to the poorer condition of the tee boxes and greens.
Even so, this is the second time I’ve played this course and I like the layout so would play again but hopefully they can sort out some better investment in general maintenance.
rough ride around a difficult, choppy course.
The bumps, dips, puddles, and broken cart path was extremely annoying. Takes away from the fun of play. No sand provided on the cart which accounts for so many divots in the fairway. This course forces you to hit straight or lose many balls.
