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.

wonderful day

We had a beautiful day, played @ 4pm on a weekday and even with the nice weather the course was empty. Pace of play was as good as it gets. The course was in terrific shape. It's a beautiful layout, lots of interesting holes. Difficult course for me, very hilly so many tough lies. It was a great value, for the money it was the best course I've played in the area.

Glad to play with a member

An excellent layout that had is playing 90 degrees since there was so much rain in VA the week before. There are many blind shots so being paired up with a member was a huge break. The fairways were a little spotty but we play lift/clean/place and that made the round fun.

Excellent layout, terrific staff who were polite and accommodating.

Will definitely play when we return.

Obnoxious starter, no personality to course, fairways beat up, greens beat up, cart paths beat up, first and last time playing this course.

Resort Course without the basic amenities

Great course but amenities are pretty poor. 90 degrees and no beverage cart on the course. Should be there everyday. If you can afford cement cart paths around the course, you should be able to pay someone run a beverage cart. You have a resort course which is incredible, just act like it everywhere else!

Great course to play

This was my second time playing this course. I played as a single and it was raining at the start of my round. Played from the blue tees this time and because of the fairways being wet that made the course very long. But all and all the course is still a great layout and fun to play. Worth the stop
If your in the area.

Course is in great shape...

As other reviewers have mentioned some holes have some fairway maintenance going on, but it isn't much of an issue. Overall the course was in fantastic shape, the greens were very nice. Beautiful, but challenging course. (Make sure to pick the right teebox to play from!) You're very likely to spot some deer or turkeys at some point during your round.

Great layout and greens

Very generous fairways, very deep sand traps and very fast, undulating greens! Great layout.....this is a second shot course. Fairways were thin but greens were excellent! As other posts have stated....choose your tees carefully......if you are not a single digit handicap, steer clear of the blue tees!

Nice course needs maturity

Very Very Challenging new Rees Jones course in Williamsburg VA area. Pick the right set of tees or it can be a brute. Overall the course is new and needs some growing in. very hilly and after a recent rain, fairways did not drain well. Cart path only and 90 degrees made for a very humid golf round on a tough track. Probably walked 4 miles to & from cart paths to your ball. Would like to return when fully grown in and in cooler time of the year. Overall the holes were beautiful & challenging.

good course

Course played extremely long due to the wet conditions. Greens putted very fast which made it quite fun. Its pretty long from the whites as I'm a 16 handicap and shot a 98. The sand played very difficult due to the wetness.

Very Demanding Course

Depending which tee box is used, this course could be short or very long. Fairways are challenging and the greens are very undulating and fast. Would not walk the course unless you are in shape. Will definitely play again. Had a lot of fun and enjoyed the scenery.

Beautiful setting

Lots of hills, rolling fairways but there was more mud than grass in them, not green at all, must be all Bermuda. Had to pick the ball to hit it or you got a mud shot. Lots of bunkers, very hard, Long course, suggest you play forward tees for beginners. Greens were in great shape. Multiple tee boxes were great, lots of options for varied skilled players. Will be going back once the fairways fill in and green up.

A fall from grace

Played this course two and three years earlier and it was in excellent shape . Played yesterday following heavy rains the day before and it was cart path only and with good reason . Greens fair to good . Fairways with little grass and muddy. Don't think fairways over seeded and what grass present was dormant and slick. Rees Jones design excellent but course has fallen on hard times and needs work . The whole property and adjacent vineyards and winery are exceptional and hope the new ownership can bring this wonderful spot back to it's former greatness .

Tough challange

Excellent golf course. Bring your A game. This course will challenge you. And I would suggest you bring a few extra balls. You might lose one or two. Hole # 11 par 4, 489 from the blue tees, then after this hole # 12 up hill, landed around 150 marker but ball rolled back 30 yards.
