Honey Bee Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Nestled in the heart of Virginia Beach, Honey Bee Golf Club is one of the area's most popular daily-fee golfing venues. Rees Jones designed the course, incorporating water on 10 holes as well as intricate bunkering throughout. The challenging layout has several tricky doglegs and some treacherous blind shots as well. It's a golf course that demands careful course management and some strategic thinking. Accurate shot placement is also key when maneuvering the rolling fairways and contoured greens. While it's by no means an easy golf course, it is an enjoyable round for players of all skill levels, making it a popular venue for tournaments and corporate outings. For golfers looking to get an entire day of golf in, Honey Bee's sister club, Stumpy Lake, is only about half a mile away.

Perfect day for golf
Course looked great! Greens were in good shape except that golfers today do not clean their marks. Pace was very slow.
Dog leg heaven
There’s 6 par 3’s, and 4 par 5’s. No 150 yard poles, most greens are sloped pretty steeply from back to front, staff was friendly, sand not too bad but kinda pebbly, greens mostly ok, houses and huge trees line most fairways, fairways & tees a bit overgrown.
Good track to play but tee boxes and greens need some attention.
Enjoyed the round here and love the course layout. The course was in good condition except tee boxes were chewed up and not even and the greens had so many unrepaired and repaired divots. Fairways were descent.
Great local spot
Pretty easy course with no real standouts. Just your simple above average course and excellent service.
Great day on the course
Played while visiting from Canada. Had a great day course was in amazing shape. Pace of play was perfect. Will be returning in a few weeks and cant wait to play it agaian
Great day
Played while visiting family. I am from Niagara Falls Ontario Canada. Had a great time very peaceful and relaxing round of golf. Great value great layout great conditions. 2 greeens had minor burn areas other then that course was perfect. Challenging but great for all golfers. Cant wait to go back
Enjoyable Golf Outing at Honeybee
Initially, I was greeted by a friendly staff member in the pro shop. He explained the course well and described the off course amenities. Accessing my golf cart and heading to the practice range was quick and painless. The course was in great shape, particularly the putting greens. The course was backed up, however. It took nearly 5 hours(!!). Also the price point was more than I expected to pay, although I was given a military veteran discount. My friend and I enjoyed a cold beverage at the course restaurant and the service was great. I’ll play there again soon.
Course is in good shape
From T Boxes, fairways and greens, very good shape. Good pace as well.
