Colonial Heritage Golf Club offers the only Arthur Hills-designed layout in Williamsburg, and it is also the city's only gated golf community. Golfers looking for a place where they can just 'grip it and rip it' will be out of luck on this course, which requires skill and strategy. It is a thought-provoking design where golfers will want to weigh all of the risk and reward options first. The layout plays through deep ravines that provide interesting changes in elevation. The golf course also features undulating fairways and large, fast greens that are bordered by strategically placed bunkers as well as water hazards that come into play on several holes. Colonial Heritage G.C. definitely provides a good challenge, even for a seasoned player, but beginners shouldn't feel too intimidated. The golf course offers some room for error and the risk-reward opportunities appeal to low and high handicappers alike.

Clubhouse service was very good. Course was in very good condition. Greens were excellent, but very contoured and sometimes tricky.

Solid 15 hole course, but more enjoyable the second time playing with many blind shots from the tee and into the green. 3 holes were contrived #5, #16, #17 to fill out a full 18 hole layout. For example, #5 is a par 5 - I hit a 6, PW, and 8 iron to the green and made par. It took me several minutes on the tee to figure out a target and select a club. #17 look like something in a golf cartoon. Overall too many houses and too close to the course. However, it was a fun day of golf with very good conditions and I would only recommend it to an experienced golfer looking for something different.

Not a flat lie on the course. Hilly and sloped. Greens have lots of contours. Great holes and laid out for a terrific day of golf

Great golf course where each hole gives you a different look.

Had a great time. Driving range was out of balls when we arrived, but balls were delivered within a couple of minutes. Very nice practice facility.

We didn't have a yardage booklet, so it was difficult to judge where and what to hit on a few holes. Fairways, greens and tee boxes were immaculate. Surprising amount of elevation change on a number of holes. Five sets of tees, so you could pick your degree of difficulty.

The course especially the back nine is challenging but fair. The pace of play did suffer without a ranger to monitor.

Excellent course for average golfer

We are a four-gal foursome that traveled to Virginia to golf. This was one of our favorite courses that we golfed during the week. The only issue was the greens were in semi-bad condition so we only allowed 2 putts on any hole. They had recently dressed the greens and had some diseased greens. It all worked out. Beautiful course and would definitely tell anyone they need to golf this course. Easy for women to par but greens created difficulty for my four-some.

Course is awesome except hole 5

Hole 5 is probably one of the worst par 5s I've ever played. Playing from the tips was pretty challenging and a solid championship layout.

Course challenging but don't play in the heat!

We enjoyed the course--challenging and well maintained but it was a hot day and all of the water containers were MT or could only trickle out. The beverage person came by once during our round.

Excellent Course And Challenging Greens!!

Had one of the best days for golf yesterday out of the entire year weather wise and Colonial Heritage was in "pristine" condition. Greens are always very challenging and it was simply an awesome day together with my son. Best course in the 757 as far as I'm concerned and I've played most of them and keep coming back to Colonial.

Excellent course , well maintained, and fun to play!

Excellent experience! Golf course in great condition in spite of recent rains. Very playable and good mix of holes. Staff is exceptional and cordial. We were rained out after 6 holes and Shawn, the head pro, came out to get us and then gave us a raincheck good for one year for 18 holes! Would certainly come back again and found this course to be the most enjoyable of all we played in the Williamsburg area.

Beautiful and Challenging Course

Colonial Heritage is, in my opinion, one of the best courses on the peninsula. It is very well maintained and the staff is very accommodating. While the course is challenging, the pace play is well kept. My twosome finished in just over 3 hours. I would definitely recommend Colonial Heritage for an enjoyable day of golf.

I hope you like hills

Beautiful course, long par 5s, a lot of hills, very well maintained. For a beginner like myself I found it quite challenging, but enjoyable. Lesson learned: turn for the pro shop at the sign that says athletic club.
