Situated between Richmond and Williamsburg, the Club at Viniterra sprawls across abundantly wooded hills. There is no shortage of elevation changes on this Rees Jones and Greg Muirhead-designed golf course. There is a difference of as much as 70 feet from the tee to the green on most of the holes. When combined with the mature trees, the result is a tough layout that demands accuracy. Thankfully though, there are not many water hazards to contend with but there is strategically placed bunkering throughout. The golf course also provides a scenic round with working vineyards running alongside the lush fairways. In addition to being challenging, the Club at Viniterra prides itself on their environmentally sensitive practices. The golf course saves as much as 80 percent of the water used on traditional courses thanks to the use of a drought-resistant grass hybrid.

Under repair

This was a very solid course with fast greens and friendly staff. There was a whole lot of construction going on into the place around cart paths whole lot of driving on gravel etc. but other than them doing a facelift for the future the course itself was spectacular.

This was an excellent choice!

Played here as a last minute replacement to try and avoid wetter forecast down in Williamsburg. Price was better and the course wound up being perfect! Staff extremely friendly. Pace was awesome. Conditions were great, and the layout is loads of fun, not boring at all! Elevation, changing widths of the fairway, doglegs, great geens, this had a great collection of everything, yet still very playable for differing skill levels. Totally recommend!

Beautiful course Aggressive Ranger

Our group was playing at a 2 hr. 9 hole pace and the ranger kept asking us to pick up the pace. He said there was a hole and half empty ahead of us. Not our fault. He made it very unpleasant most of the front. I felt very rushed. Could not play any faster. I have played there multiple times and that the first time it has happened.

Very nice course, clueless ranger

The course deserves a higher rating. Our round was made less than desirable by an overly aggressive ranger who kept telling us to play faster because there was open space ahead of us stating that "no one wants to play a 5 hour round". It should be note that we played the front nine. In 2:04 and the entire 18 in 4:10, a reasonable time for a foursome. This ranger needs basic trading on how to interact with people.

Course in great condition

Course was in excellent shape especially since we have not had any measurable rain in two weeks. The people in the pro shop were very friendly. We had a marshall that was on us for slow play but our group played as a foursome and finished front nine in two hour and total round in just under four hours. He was more focused on us than other groups. I know that it is important to have marshalls on the course to keep the pace flowing but when you are being constantly reminded of being behind, it takes away from your game as he more focused on us rushing.

Feels like your own personal golf course

Every aspect of the course has been top notch. Tee boxes, fairways, bunkers, and the greens have been well maintained.

This course is “top notch” and play again and again. Course layout is challenging for all levels. Kudos! To all!

Good course

The layout changed a little since the last time I played. Some spots were wet but did not effect play. Sand traps were in good condition and the greens were a little fast

Great Course

Course was in fantastic condition. The greens were FAST - always love to see that. Staff was super friendly - and the starter is fantastic.

Also have to commend the condition of the driving range. Was a real joy warming up on that range this morning.

Will be back!

Could play this course every week

One of the best layouts in the entire state. Greens are very fast and in super shape. Can’t go wrong playing at Viniterra. Top notch track and very tough from the blue tees. It will test every shot you got.

We loved the course but unfortunately the weather made the course very wet. A lot of standing water throughout but the greens were excellent and still quick. Can’t wait to play it again in dry conditions.

Great track

This was a great day of golf. You feel like you are the only ones playing the course. The fairways and greens were in great shape for this time of year. I can only imagine how nice it will be in a couple weeks.

I hope to be able to get back here to golf again.

Great Condition for this Time of Year

Every time I'm in the Williamsburg area, I try to get a round in at Viniterra. This course is a good challenge with lots of contours in the fairways and an abundance of bunkers throughout. It's an interesting layout and you have to think about where you want to land the ball, otherwise you'll get yourself in some trouble. I was surprised what good shape the course is in for this time of year. The rough, of course, is still dormant, but the fairways were greening up nicely. The greens--OMG, were they every fast! I can't tell you how many three putts I had as a result! Finally got the feel on the back nine. There is a lot of construction going on off course (looks like more housing development), but it does impact the cart paths so you will run into areas of gravel off the concrete path. It doesn't detract from the experience--just a "heads up." I haven't been there since the clubhouse was finished, and it's really nice. This course just keeps getting better...

Continues to get better

Have come to the area and played this course for about 10 years. From the clubhouse to the course and back to the 19th hole it improves every time we return.

It has 7 sets of tees to choose from.so that every player can find a length that works for them. It is well worth the trip from Richmond, Williamsburg and beyond as a great value and a fun day..
