Honey Bee Golf Club

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.

The course was in great condition considering the amount of rain the area had experienced.

The weather was perfect and the staff was excellent in accommodating an inordinate amount of golfers on the course.

First time to play here. It was terrific day, very hot at the finish though. I ran out of my bottle of water, but no worry, cold water at the course.

I was moving a little bit slow, but the staff did not bother me. That was nice!

I had a visitor. They gave us an extra cart. AMAZING.

I did see a little bit of dog poop on the grass at the entrance area. I hope that can be taken care of in the future.

Father course layout is great, very fun and chsllenging. The greens were not in good shape but the rest of the course was in great shape.

The front and back nine both start out with par 5 holes. Fairly open on most holes. The course was in good shape considering all the recent rain. Challenging yet fun. I like playing whenever I am in the Virginia Beach area.

I have played this course every time I visit Virginia. The course obviously need a major drainage renovation!! As wet as it is, they took too many tee times around 8:00am. Out tee time was 7:59 and we have 2 groups of four some in front so us and 3 groups of 3 and four some behind us....SAD!!!

The course was in great condition, even though the last few days had heavy rains. The pace was the only negative issue - there was no Marshall on the course and as a result, a group of 6 played together and slowed the entire round. The group took an onordinate amount of time and did not allow anyone to play through.

With all the rain we’ve had, all creeks and ponds are over flowing. Courses was in good shape however. Fairways moist but not soggy and greens in great shape. Pleasantly surprising how good the course was.

Haven’t played this course in several years. In good shape. Some of the bunkers are GUR which we weren’t aware of before we played. Nevertheless, the greens and fairways were in good shape. It’s a par 70 and has several challenging holes. A good overall course worth playing.

From tee yo green, course was in great shape. A lot of dog legs, left and right. Need to place ball through out course. Fun to play.

This was my first time playing on this golf course. I found it challenging enough for an occasional golfer like myself. Lots of sand traps, and I seemed to be gravitating toward them often, so I got great practice with my sand wedge. Especially noticed how well kept the course was, free of leaves, debris, etc. and the fairways were not bumpy or rutty, even in the rough, it was not too bad. Carts were in great condition and the cart path was well kept and maintained. I have been to other courses in the area and find the cart path in terrible condition with tree roots buckling the paths throughout and their carts not well maintained. I will definitely be going to this course again.
