Honey Bee Golf Club

Overall great course. Always enjoy playing here. Would like to see more golfers fill their divots and repair ball marks on the greens.

Golfed here last year, maybe the time and day had something to do with it but, crowded at 645 am on a Monday morning, we had a foursome, me and my three adult sons, two of which are new to the sport, had to let two threesomes pass us, one of our carts died at hole number 4, and then we were scolded by the greenskeep to keep up with play and we were 1 and a half holes behind. The course was flooded the greens not kept and again felt very rushed, but for the money and new players, the price was acceptable.

I try and play this course a couple of times a year. With many to choose from in Hampton Roads, it’s one of my 3 favorites. On today’s play I did find 2-3 greens that were “suffering” but overall, the course is great. I look forward to the next round….

Played on July 4th. Was expecting very slow play. Honeybee has been famous for this. Play was pretty fluid until the last few holes. New manager has set up 9 instead of 7 minute tee time gaps. This is helping. I suggest a marshall moving throughout the course to encourage proper pace There was no cart person which, on this hot day , would have been great. Don’t think I’ve seen the fairways this nice and I have been going there 20+ years.

Pace of play can get really bad here, especially on weekends. Course and layout is fine for a muni . Over 6 hours for 18 holes of play is too much for me though .

Had a great time yesterday and plan on definitely playing that golf course again
