Independence Golf Club - Championship

$130 during the week is why I only play here maybe once a year. Greens are fast and firm. Just can’t get over the price. It’s a great course just too expensive for me. New vendor working the snack bar - no hot dogs. Who eats wings while playing golf at the turn? Ordered a Buffalo chicken wrap, it was chicken salad w Texas Pete wrapped in a tortilla for $12.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing Independence this past Friday. I had heard a lot of good things from friends about the course and for $129, I admittedly had high expectations. I'm happy to report that Independence and its staff exceeded my expectations and made me want to come back again and again! Even with the crappy weather and it being so early in the season, the course was in excellent condition. Very fair and very fun track. The staff went above and beyond - from the folks at the bar/grille, to the gentleman that checked us in, to the super friendly on-course beverage girl. Facilities are top notch and everything was a wonderful experience. This was easily one my favorite golf outings in the Richmond area and I shot a great score too!

Greens are some of the best in Virginia! Always roll fast and true. The rest of the course was in great shape.

The pace of play is very slow. That should be reviewed by management.

So first off, mid 90’s handicap. That said let’s start with the staff. Absolutely first class, friendly amenable and helpful. Driving range very nice. The course will keep you honest, stay in the fairways or make sure you have very accurate spotters in your group. The rough is thick but very fair. Kind of have to step on your ball to find it but I played as a single. Greens fast, undulating, wide. Overall 4.5 only because of the cost. Otherwise if you’re in this area it’s the first place you should play! Highly recommended

By far the best public course in Richmond Metro, but might even be best public in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

This golf course is better than most private courses in the state. Fantastic conditions, great practice facilities and always a joy to play!

Wonderful time! Course layout is very nice. Walkable.

Greens were very firm and fast. Took a while to get used to them.

Nicest carts I've ever seen. Staff very friendly and range is fun.

The "car girl" is a bit over the top. Very strange seeing a Lexus drive by on the cart path with food/drinks.

If it wasn't for the price, I'd play it more often. Over $100 is a bit out of my normal range; this was a gift.

I highly recommend playing it at least once when in RVA. You'll love it!

I’ve played IGC many times. The greens were the best in Richmond. However something is going on and they look diseased and need help. Also looks like they are not mowing the rough? Something was off about the day I went. I hope they get this straight because I love Indy.

Bring your best short and putting as this course will test you! For this time of the year the course was in great shape!

Great course and the greens are in great shape in December. It will take a couple of rounds to know your shots around the course. Great atmosphere and the burrito at the turn was just right.

Spoil yourself and play when you can.

For a Fazio course I was a little disappointed but it was in pretty good shape overall. I scored well but I just didn't come away with the Fazio feeling I usually get playing his courses. Would I play it again...absolutely. I guess I just expected a little more but hey I can't complain about a 77 but so much.
