WOW! Love it!

Wonderful time! Course layout is very nice. Walkable.

Greens were very firm and fast. Took a while to get used to them.

Nicest carts I've ever seen. Staff very friendly and range is fun.

The "car girl" is a bit over the top. Very strange seeing a Lexus drive by on the cart path with food/drinks.

If it wasn't for the price, I'd play it more often. Over $100 is a bit out of my normal range; this was a gift.

I highly recommend playing it at least once when in RVA. You'll love it!

Greens need help - not normal

I’ve played IGC many times. The greens were the best in Richmond. However something is going on and they look diseased and need help. Also looks like they are not mowing the rough? Something was off about the day I went. I hope they get this straight because I love Indy.

Always a great round

Great course and the greens are in great shape in December. It will take a couple of rounds to know your shots around the course. Great atmosphere and the burrito at the turn was just right.

Spoil yourself and play when you can.

Okay Fazio

For a Fazio course I was a little disappointed but it was in pretty good shape overall. I scored well but I just didn't come away with the Fazio feeling I usually get playing his courses. Would I play it again...absolutely. I guess I just expected a little more but hey I can't complain about a 77 but so much.

Following a 5-some (3 who were walking) from the 10th tee on was annoying.

Finding Golf in Richmond

While visiting family I stayed in Short Pump. The app led me to Independence. It was a delightful first time experience. I’ll be back!

Fastttttt Greens

First time playing Independence. Loved the course. For a Sunday, the pace of play was great. Marshals were on top of it. The greens were great. No pitch marks and they are fast. Can’t wait to play here again.
