Honey Bee Golf Club

Waited approximately 8 minutes for the group in front of us before we could tee off of every hole. They kept looking for their ball even though they knew that we were waiting to tee off. The group behind us ended up waiting longer than we did. Other than that, we had a good time and the course was pretty good.

I used to play this course quite regularly, I just recently got to play here again and holy moly have the greens gone down hill!!! Over half of the greens were so bad it wasn’t even worth the trouble to try and putt there were dead spots and chucks missing making it impossible to read a putt it was just a guessing game!!! Was approached by a staff member on the 8th hole where I was asked how my round was i informed him that the greens were in terrible condition, he then ask what made them so terrible. I find it odd that an employee of the golf course is unaware of the conditions of the greens?!? After I told him the list of problems with the greens he slowly rode next to me as I was walking then with no apology for the conditions he just said “well have fun” I got a discounted round due to using golf now so I walked 18 for 30 dollars (regular price is 45 to ride 18) def not worth 15 considering putting is half of golf I highly suggest that the course staff take action to repair their greens or set a price per round that matches the conditions you’ll have to play in!!!

Course in great shape, with a few greens had some weeds.

I really enjoyed this course. The greens were ok . But the set up of the course layout was nice to say the least. I will definitely play again.

Course played well, course was in good shape for the time of year. Fairways dense, tees full, greens mostly in good shape... a few stressed spots on a green or two. This place is always so busy, even on a Monday. So I can only imagine the amount of traffic the greens get on a daily. Staff was friendly except the guy in the pro shop. Very rude and aloof. Maintenance staff busy, but respectful. Prices a bit high on beverages. Lots of houses and minimal shade areas. Will play again!

I played with a guy who says greens are usually in good shape. The positives fairways and tee boxes were in good shape. Most of the bunkers were in good shape. We flew around the course but it was 90 degrees outside. The greens were pretty bare. Looks like maybe they were trying to prevent a disease or recovering from one. There were weeds growing in a few places. Maybe I will try it again next year

Course in Good shape, with the exception of the bunkers, lots of gravel and minimal sand. Greens had a few rough spots also but nothing to hurt the round.

Got a "hot deal" so price was right. However half the greens were recently semi-aerated and covered with white sand. Don't think the pros would want to putt on them.

Did not see any "honey" bees but several dragon flies.

Played the round in less than 4 hours. Most of the holes are surrounded by townhouses and/or small homes.

This is a fun course with some challenging holes. Usually in good shape.

I'm a local and have played Honey Bee numerous times. The course was in "ok" condition but it definitely was far from the best I've seen it. Some of the fairways looked overgrown, a couple of the greens were burnt along the edges, and some of the sandtraps were being filled in and covered. The current sand traps were well maintained. I like Honey Bee and will definitely play there again. I'm hoping the conditions were due to the weather Virginia Beach has experienced this Spring.

Course was fine, but was still recovering from aeration. This was not mentioned when we booked with GolfNow.

The amount of rain received in the last week has surely affected this golf course.

This is typically one of my preferred local courses along with their sister course Stumpy Lake. However I am slightly disappointed that at both of these courses during the aeration of the greens they still charge the full greens fee rate. On this day there was easily a 1/4 inch build up of sand on most greens making putting inconsistent. On other occasions they charged the standard rate for 18 when the back 9 was not in play. They just had everyone playing the front 9 twice but at no discount. I've been booking my rounds on Golf Now in advance for a while now, but I may start checking out the course before paying.

First let me say I have played many times there and always had a good time. When I checked in the counter guy started telling me such and such holes cart path only such and such 90 degree and said they were marked. when we got to #7 my buddy hit his ball way left and we drove over to it. Out of nowhere the marshal appears and says "you were warned about cart path only" I'm 65 and he acted like he was going to throw us off the course. There was no sign on the tee but there was a sign beyond whee we were but it was no way visible from the tee box. I admit we were wrong but his tone was upsetting to say the least. We were a 2some and followed 4 ladies who never waved us through and we waited on every tee, the round was 5 hrs and the marshal never policed pace of play. Again I enjoy Honey Bee but the marshal needs some people skills and monitor pace better.
