Surprised

The friendliness of everyone at the course was overwhelming. I’ve played a lot of courses on vacation where they act like you’re an inconvenience for being there. From the clubhouse attendant, starters, grounds staff, they were upbeat and made me excited to play. Great course and experience.

Excellent Compliment to the Gold Course

Good compliment to the gold course. Bunkers need some work. Not as penal as the gold course. Highly recommend the golf package so you can play both courses as much as you want.

Unbelievable Course; Best Par 3s in Mid-Atlantic

Had been eyeing this resort for years and finally pulled the trigger. Course was in pristine condition. The starter, Sam Motley, was super. Turns out he played college baseball with a good friend of mine. Played the ball down as the fairways were immaculate. Par 3s are unbelievable! Definitely want to return and with the golf package an excellent deal. Highly recommend!

Always Feel Welcomed

The Green is one of my favorite courses in the Williamsburg area. Playing "second fiddle" to The Gold (the more famous of the two courses at Golden Horseshoe), I actually like The Green better. It has wide fairways, large greens, and mounding almost on every hole that helps bounce the ball back into the fairway. The course was in good condition except for one thing...the collars on almost every green are dirt. We asked a member of the staff why and he said they cut it too short and it burned out. Unfortunately, this doesn't look burned out...there is no burned out grass, but simply just dirt. They should resod these areas and get the course back in the condition it typically is in. Still a great tract.

Nice course

Very friendly staff and course was in good shape. Played with another golf pass player but 4-some in front of us were incredibly slow and wouldn’t allow us to play through.

Good course.

Good course but was cart path only due to all the rain the previous day. We would not do cart path only again if playing this course as a lot of walking up and down hills to get to your ball and the same to get back to our golf cart. We didn't realize as first timers at this course that it was so up and down.

This course should not carry the name of Golden Horseshoe

In compare with Gold & Green course, this course seems without any maintenance and the condition, holes layout, putting green, sign are totally under the PAR (even far away to the par).

We are very disappointed and sincere recommend the management suspect to offer this course until its problem corrected.

Somewhat Lost

Enjoyed playing the Spotswood course for the first time.

The variety of the layout was excellent, greens a bit unloved, but terrific value for a practice round for most of your clubs.

The hardest component was just getting to the next hole. There needs to be much better directional signage. I spoke with three groups of other golfers while seeking directions and they all admitted they had a tough time just getting around!

Fun day!

Green Course

This is one of the most beautifully designed and well manicured courses I've played. However, it was a "cart path only" day, which was very difficult to maneuver. I would not recommend anyone to play there when it's cartpath only. Just too difficult to locate and walk to your shots based on the high mounding borders the fairways on both sides. Just too much walking up and down hills to and from your shot. HOWEVER, I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS COURSE TO ANYONE TO PLAY WHEN IT'S NOT "CARTPATH ONLY". JUST A BEAUTIFUL COURSE.
