The Club At Viniterra
About
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.

Cold and windy
Never a fan of cart path only and don’t think it was needed. Course layout is amazing! Still needs a month before it’s worthy of 65$
Punched Greens
The course played hard. The greens had been airated , some of the sand traps had sand that was not ranked. The sand was heavy as if they just dumped a truck load of sand in the trap. The replay was $15 dollars from 9 holes.
Be good in two weeks
Greens were aerated not that long ago and cold weather not helping grass grow in yet. At least the fee for playing was commensurate with the conditions. Greens still sandy and grass around the greens is still dormant. Should be in good shape in a few weeks. Wind was brutal and made it an extra challenge.
Course Work
The course was getting worked on which resulted in all holes having sand slightly placed on preventing true ball travel to hole
Good Time
Overall course was in good shape. Pace. Of play was great. Enjoyed the day.
Cold but fun
We played on a day that never broke into the 50's. Course was in very good condition considering all of the recent wet weather the area has had. Greens played a little slow but I know they will be in great shape when the weather breaks. All in all I will definitely play this challenging course again! Makes you hit the driver several times.
Great course, unfriendly counter
I played this course two Fridays in a row. I dont know if the second Friday (March 2) was “grumpy day” but the dude working the counter pretty much made it seem like he didnt want ANYBODY to be there that day. It was a day of high winds. Even after we were done 18 and at our cars, he came running out of the pro shop and rushed us to get our stuff out of our cart and hustle us into our cars. Ive never felt like i was less welcome on any other course. I tried to make small talk, you could easily tell the guy was agitated, and will not recommend this course to anyone based off of this experience. I loves the course too, but in this day and age, if you are a golf course, you need golfers to stay in business. Not a rude counter jockey who is on his high horse.
Damper Day
Course was wet due rain. Cart path only but overall was not bad. Finished 18 holes in 4.5 hrs. Had a great day despite the wet conditions.
Unusual Hot Golf in February
I enjoyed record-setting temperatures playing golf at Viniterra. Unfortunately the course was still pretty wet and play was restricted to cart path only for carts. Consequently, this meant extra walking and several ball drops to avoid standing water conditions. I've played this course before in the summer under normal conditions and it was great. I won't be back without knowing that carts are allowed on the fairways.
A good day
Winter time, little grass in the fairways but always a fun track
I'm sure it was soaked but we are drying out now. See you soon.
Cold Day
Was cold and Course was wet due to rain. Path only access. Nice and sunny and had a great time was the day warmed up
Viniterri
Pace of play was good and Course was maintained and in good shape.

This is a great course; but you must select the tee boxes that fit your game. No harm in moving up!
russelld1948,
Great advice! Thanks for coming out!

Viniterra, Don't Hesitate!
The more time between visits to Viniterra, the more I miss it. Living on the west end of Richmond, the drive is about 45 minutes, so it's not as frequent as I would like.
The layout is outstanding. This is a course that makes you think, and looking back at the hole from the green makes you appreciate how the hole plays.
Don't even think about biting off more than you can fairly handle. I play it from the senior tees, and that is perfect for my handicap of 15 and drives that average about 200-225 yards. The biggest difference is in the most challenging par threes. There are many different perspectives and distances from the various tees.
Condition is always optimum for the seasons. The superintendent does a great job with the course.
Clearly, I would become a member if it was closer...but that doesn't keep me from making it my "home" course!
Enjoy!
Easy drive and great layout
If this was right in the city I would be there every week. Took me about 20 minutes to get there from the Fan in Richmond. Each hole is different, difficult second-shot golf course. Every time I play the greens are smooth and fast, which is why I keep coming back. Thanks to the attendant who gave me a cart in the parking lot. Friendly Pro when I checked in too!
golfingva33,

Distance, bunkers, and a blast!
Viniterra is wide open. You can play as far back as you want. The course is designed for fun, but scoring chances will be hard to come by if you can’t stick it on the greens. All the greens are guarded by bunkers, with each bunker having a different grade of fluffiness (or hardness). Unless the practice range bunker is freshly raked, you may not want to base your sand shots on it. Still, it is a great course with a great staff!
lccrossgaze,
Thank you for the kind words! Rees Jones really constructed a gem out here in New Kent. Thanks for driving from Glen Allen!
Sincerely,
Management
Excellent Day
the course is always in good shape , with the greens in nice condition and the leaves all blown off the course. Only area for improvement is the bunkers are not consistent (and they are everywhere) . Always nice people who play here as well.
WykaglBermingham,
Thank you for the kind words! We continue to work on the eighty bunkers that Rees Jones designed for us. See you again soon!
Sincerely,
Management
