Colonial Heritage Club
About
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.

It's not easy to get on the green on the par-3 14th but if you do, you've got a great birdie opportunity. Photo submitted by Back9Ben on 03/11/2020

Look at this, where do I hit the ball Photo submitted by Douglas5507193 on 10/16/2013
Amazing Shape
Course was in terrific shape. People were friendly. Lots of blind shots, tough course.
A playable but challenging course for all skill levels
One of my home courses is an Arthur Hills design, and like that one, Colonial is a fair yet stern test for all levels. I am used to playing the Blue tees, but for this course due to a recent scope on my knee, played the Whites. Even from there, this course at just over 6000 yds was long enough to challenge me. This is a surprisingly hilly shotmakers course which requires you to consider your club selection and position carefully. The bombers have a number of holes that they can let loose, but the real key is to keep the ball on the short grass, with errant shots finding well-placed bunkering, thick rough, or sloped lies. The greens are typical Hills: large, subtly undulating and plenty of pace, yet soft enough to hold medium and long irons without having to hit them sky high. Especially challenging around the greens, there are plenty of bunkers and terrain, and some of the views are stunning, with a number of tee shots requiring a carry over ravines ot trouble. A real gem!!
Great course & well worth the Golf Now deal
This is a great course and a great value on Golf Now. The greens are in really good condition. Other work being done in fringe but otherwise another good day at Colonial Heritage. We drove almost 2 hours to play on this Golf Now special.
This course has a lot of trouble and is not for short hitters.
The course is very picturesque with a lot of sand and plenty of trouble. There is not a lot of water. Greens are exceptionally fast. Can run into very slow play when younger children are playing the course. Definitely need a cart as some tees are a long ways from the previous green. It is a tough course for women who do not hit the ball long off the tee as many holes require you to hit across ravines, etc.
This course is not for beginners,
I had a great time playing this course. Playing this type of hilly and uneven fairways is a good change from the flat type course. I live in Fairfield Glade TN. and we play on 5 courses that we own. Two of our courses are of this type, hilly and uneven fairways and this is what golf is all about. Felt right at home. The one thing that seemed not up to par was the condition, not being watered and fertilized. Seeing that this course is open all year for play. Maybe this is because of the type of grass that is there.
the course is great
it is a very nice course enjoyed playing. staff was nice and very polite. i will play it again
Great course. Excellent shape.
Beautiful course. Fast greens, but true. Fairways were is great shape. Layout is really challenging, but very fair from forward tees. Buy a yardage book or use golf gps app. Would play this every other day if I could.
Challenging but fair
It was a beautiful day and the pace was awesome, no one slowing us up..........
Excellent layout, well maintained course
Course always seems to play long, excellent practice area.
tough course but fair from 4 sets of tees
always in good shape from tee to greens, great range to practice
Great conditions, Very Challenging
I signed up as the 3rd for a threesome but played as a single in under 3 hours. Great conditions, extremely difficult but fun from the green tees. White are shorter but just as fun. Great value, great layout. Its a favorite.
