The Club At Viniterra
Rating Snapshot
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.

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
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!

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!

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!

Great course.
Nice course for the time of the year. Greens are fast and hard. Fairways are dormant but in good shape. Make sure you check your tee preference. Long for average to novice golfers - play a tee up and you will enjoy the round. Waiting for the clubhouse to be built - been some time now. Clubhouse is a double-wide trailer but good enough for golf. There is no full service clubhouse but plans are to build soon. Play here it's worth it.
u1367903,
Thank you for the kind words! The construction on the new clubhouse continues for now and we can't wait to host you from inside the new building!

Excellent layout and value
Normally the course condition is great; however, traps need attention. Same issue about 3 weeks ago.
aep4203,
We will get to work on the washed out sand traps! Thank you for playing, see you again soon!

Escape from the In-laws
This is a great golf course that I have played before and make it a yearly destination when I have to visit my in-laws in Richmond over Thanksgiving. Would recommend this course to anyone in the Richmond area

I'll play here again
It was the end of the season. Yet, the fairways and greens were in excellent shape. The course was not as difficult as I'd been led to believe, but bunkers abound, so one must have their sandbox and chipping game in order. There was plenty of water stationed around the course, but alas, no beer cart. I'd have played much better with one or two down the gullet. Very nice course for the money. I'll be playing here again.
