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.

Masters Sunday

Good course layout and condition of the course for the amount of rain we’ve gotten the past weekend. The only problem with the course today was the pace of play, almost 5 1/2 hours, with no marshal to be had. Even a weekend round shouldn’t take that long, blew up the rest of the day.

Course returning to it’s former glory

Great course. Always a fun challenge. Greens coming along. Couple more weeks and I believe they will be really good. Just wish players took the care and fixed divots. Today, I felt it was my job to fix not only mine, but at least three to four others on each hole.

Not Bad, Worth a shot

I enjoy playing here with new people or people not looking to play too seriously. The Greens are pretty garbage, mostly sand.

The course however is beautiful and well spaced out. Great for going to enjoy the experience and friends but less on great golf. I enjoy it solid 3 stars.

Fun track but tight!

Nice fun course. Tight fairways so you need to be straight off the tee. Lots of sand. Great value, staff is awesome. Conditions were not great but it's still early season. Ive played here in the summer and the conditions are fine.

Good Value for Golf

I found an excellent price on TeeOff for this course, which was hard to pass up. Unfortunately, when I got there, I learned that the front nine was closed for aerating, so I had to play the back nine twice.

There were goats around the 16th green, that that also meant goat droppings on the green! Not too nice to putt through.

Challenge for different levels

Different level players can find varied challenge.

I got a hot deal today. It is really money worth. Though there was frost last night, it was not bad when we started at 11 am, and cart rule is 90 degrees, loving it.
