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.

Soggy but fun
Course layout is good and even though soggy , where is it not , course ,especially greens , good shape . Pace was slow due to very very crowded . Our twosome paired with another, but good golfers who were out to enjoy day like us so worked out well . Wish the threesome in front of us moved better , but started at one and got 18 in so did ok . Practice facilities good but no real clubhouse for 19 th hole . Beautiful venue , every hole secluded onto itself and lends to the natural feel of the whole course . Normally not very crowded and pace good , but recently they tell me they have been booked solid . Numerous tee boxes so easy to play according to ability .
Great for this time of year
For a time of year with wet conditions, this course drains very well, the grass (particularly the greens) are in surprisingly good shape. The over-seeding gives great fairway definition visually and the layout is the best in 50 miles. Don't miss this course if you haven't played it. It's really spectacular in the spring and summer but even at this time of year it's a great test. Play it up a set of tees perhaps at this time of year as you won't get any roll.
cowens,
We take great pride in our greens conditions! Thank you for the kind words and I will pass them along to our Superintendent.
Sincerely,
Management
Great place to play
They don't have a real club house yet but say it will be coming soon. Most of the staff is friendly but one of the guys was a jerk. Great Course to play very challenging. As soon as they get a club house this wil be the best place to play between Richmond and Williamsburg VA.
DufferMB,
We are just as excited about the clubhouse as you are! It should add a great amenity to this amazing layout. We hope to impress you with our customer service improvement during your next visit!

Management
Great Conditions for late Fall
The course is in great shape for the first of December. Greens rolled true. Pick your line and the ball goes where you putt it. Fairways are painted green so you can tell the difference between fairway and rough. Staff was friendly. Played in three hours fifteen minutes.
Dalelee74,
Thank you for the kind words! Glad that the fairway paint worked well, and wow that pace of play!
Sincerely,
Management
The course was in great shape.
The overall experience at the course was great. The ball sits up on the fairways like it was on a tee.
malbar,
Thank you for the kind words! Glad to hear that you were in the fairways here! Keep up the great play!
Sincerely,
Management
Still One of my favorites
I've played Viniterra quite a few times and have always loved the challenging layout of the course; especially from the tips. The greens are fairly large yet vastly undulated.
I'm writing a review for the first time to highlight the greens which are in the best shape I've seen them since the recent aeration the entire year. They are running extremely smooth and FAST!
This course is a hidden gem to a lot of people including the 2 of the 3 I played with, who living in Williamsburg, had never played the course.
Great course for all skill levels!
dmangrumjr,
Thank you for the kind words! Thanks for bringing out a couple golfers who had never played here! See you soon.

Best kept secret in Virginia!
This course is exceptional! Beautiful design, every hole is wooded and lined with trees (not homes). The course is in exceptional condition - fairways, tee-boxes, greens, traps - all very well maintained. The price is unbeatable, you will not find a better course for the money. The course can be played from multiple (5-6) tee box locations, changing the landscape of the course and catering to all skill levels. If you are lucky enough to live in the area, and especially at the beautiful Viniterra community next to the New Kent Winery, life doesn't get much better (residents ride a cart to the course, then to the winery for some wine, meat and cheese afterwards!). The only thing missing is a club house (which is breaking in the fall of 2016); in the mean time, having a glass of wine at the winery isn't so bad. Enjoy!
allanbloom,
Thank you for the kind words! We are very excited about the clubhouse plans for 2017! See you again soon.

GREAT TEST OF GOLF
This golf course has it all....When new club house is built this golf course property will rival any of the best country clubs in the Middle Atlantic region...Every hole different and built with character...Professional practice area as good as it gets...Oversized greens making lag putting a top priority...Play it, you will be telling your friends that it is "truly a must play"....
SelfTaughtman,
Thank you for your incredibly kind words. We will be breaking ground on our clubhouse in the middle of November and we look forward to serving you and many more just like you in the future!

Great Layout
The design of Viniterra is outstanding. The course is wooded throughout and there are few distractions from traffic, houses, etc. There is a wide selection of tees that should fit most games. The green and bunker complexes are challenging and bunker conditions were not great after all of the recent rain. Fairways and greens were in very good shape although the greens do show some wear from play and golfers not fixing their pitch marks.
I will be back.

Great value
Great course, Marshall made sure we were on pace for a speedy round even though we never saw another group, if more courses did this golf would be much more enjoyable. The staff was very friendly as well. I will be back.
Jay2427117,
Thank you for the kind words! We take pace of play very seriously in order to ensure an enjoyable round for every player. See you again soon!

wonderful
Have played this course several times. Love playing here and haven't had a bad experience. Course was in great shape, staff friendly and efficient, and amenities are great. Course is very challenging and the holes are very different from one to next. Only compliant that day was the heat,(upper 90;s), but nothing can do about the heat. Cart lady was around often and courteous.

Great Course to PLay
Each hole has a significant degree of difficulty depending on your tee box selection. Designed in and around water and wine vineyards, this course is beautiful. Good luck on selecting your favorite hole. Enjoy the friendly staff members who help give this course that extra touch that makes you want to return.
Byron8828417,
Thank you for the kind words! We have a couple favorite holes here, it is difficult to pick just one. Hope to see you again soon!

Great course
The course was very beautiful and a great challenge. It was extremely hot the day we played. The staff came around often with ice towels and the beverage girl came around alot. Great experience.
mwelch917,
Thank you for the kind words and thanks for sticking out your round on that hot day! Humid and hot rounds of golf are always tough, I am glad that our towels and beverage cart made your visit enjoyable. Hope to see you soon!

Prime condition
I've played this course probably close to 15-20 times and this was the best condition I think I've ever seen it in. It usually is in pretty good shape, but it was noticeably better this round. Tee boxes were flush and soft, fairways were full and well maintained, bunkers very well maintained with the appropriate amount of sand, and the greens rolled as well as I've seen from any public course in the area the last few years. Keep up the good work.
csp246,
Thank you for the kind words! Our Superintendent and his staff have worked very hard this year and we are very glad to hear that it is paying off. We hope to see you out at Viniterra again soon!

Great Value!!
We were looking for a good alternative for Kingsmill or Royal New Kent since times were not available and were lucky enough to read the reviews for this course and decided to book an early teetime. We were so glad we played here. The layout is fantastic, the staff very friendly. The pro shop was nice enough to adjust our rates for a promotional rate they were having and it was greatly appreciated. Hands down the best value in Williamsburg golf. All in all, there are still some improvements that need to be made the pro shop and parking infrastructure but the course itself, the grass driving range and practice area were excellent. Despite a rain delay, we were able to finish. So glad we played here. It will now be on our places to play when we visit the Williamsburg area.
jiggygolf,
Thank you for the kind words! Being a Rees Jones design, our conditions stay above average for a majority of the year. We love to be considered as a great value! Looking forward to seeing you here again soon!

Nice Course!
Challenging and varied layout. Front nine seemed to have more generous landing areas off the tee, back had some tighter holes. Plays long, so select tees accordingly. Very picturesque and secluded round of golf with cart paths winding through thick woods between many holes. Would definitely return with Golf Now deal.
Lljones,
Thank you for the kind words! Selecting the correct tees here is very important, great advice to the other golfers.
