Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2018.
Cahoon Plantation in Chesapeake originally opened with a 27-hole layout but it has seen a major transformation since opening. One of the nines was eliminated and the flat terrain was molded into a gently rolling championship layout. The golf course has mostly parkland holes but there are some that have a links-feel, guaranteeing that there's enough variety to please any golfer. The layout is mostly wide open with very few trees to obscure the views. Water comes into play frequently throughout the golf course and there are a few strategically placed bunkers as well. The 15th hole is Cahoon Plantation's best par 3. The green is well protected by bunkers and a small pond but there is still an opportunity for a birdie, which will probably be your last chance for one before you face the difficult closing stretch of holes.

Fun but tough test of your game
1st time we played this course, had heard good things and we got a great deal on Golfnow. Wide open fairways, rough was thick and if you didn't follow your shot through the landing you could easily lose a few balls. Staff was very friendly, both pro shop attendants and the marshal who checked on groups on the course, after our round we spent a few minutes chatting with them, found out one was from New England as we are, picked up some info on the golf school as we are going to get our granddaughter started on the game, will definitely be back.
Fun layout
If you haven't been to Cahoon plantation you need to give it a try. I'm confident you will enjoy the experience, as well as come back again !!!
love this place
great layout, well maintained and friendly staff-- nice challenges in both distance and precision.
Great Course
Course is challenging and fun to play. View's were great even with the housing construction going on. Fairways and greens are very well taken care of. Greens are fast with many undulations. Looks easy but the course is very demanding and you need to place your ball in the right position for your next shot. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Will play here again and recommend anyone to try this course.
Not for the average joe
This course is beautiful even with the construction around it, very well taken care of. But if your an average joe golfer stay away there are no rules posted on course and you are being watched not only by staff but by members living near the course. If your looking for a place to become a seasoned golfer this is for you, if your the typical weekender or hey I got a day off why not hit the course with some buddies you may want to look elsewhere. With all the courses in Hampton roads open to the public you would expect a more friendly place to play especially for the price. Good luck I hope this helps you with your decision to find somewhere else to play.
Great Course
The course golf carts were restrcted to cart path only. The fairways were dry and I have seen them after watering when they were under no restrictions. 90 would have sufficient .
Good course and great shape
Greens are fast and true to hole and in great shape
Amazing August Day for Golf
The course is in great shape and the weather for an August Day was unbelievable.
Cahoon plantation
Tough long first cut of rough, otherwise greens were rolling true and course was in great condition.
nice course
Fun course to play . The fairways are tacky looking to me because of the lazy people that cant fix their divots.. just my opinion!
Always Hard
As always the course plays hard if you are in the fescue fairways. Rough was about 4 inches and around the greens around the same but the fescue roughs are VERY CHALLENGING AND DIFFUCULT WHEN NOT CUT DOWN. Stay in the fairway. Greens where hard and tight with no spin and not slow but not speedy. Always a delight to play but moved to slow today at about 5 hours 10 mins
Nice course, good condition, fair pricing.
Course was in really good condition from tee to green. Rough was very thick and a sure penalty if you miss the fairway, and the greens were VERY fast (but true). We played on a super windy day, so that made this course even more challenging than normal. I was surprised at how quiet the course, but it sure was nice to get through in just over three hours as a s Sunday morning twosome.
cahoon
Their pace of play is always bad. There are no marshals on the course to monitor.
A real tester
This course is great for the golfer. It is probably withing the top 5, certainly 10 courses in Hampton Roads. Well groomed. Great practice grounds and kid friendly. Regarding play, you will be penalized in the rough. Thickest in the area. Greens are fair and fast.
Great Value!
This was my first time playing in VA beach and it won't be the last. This course was off the beaten path but well worth the half hr drive from the beach. It was very busy, making for a slow round (just over 5 hrs) but that is the only negative thing I can say. The course was in great shape, it was challenging but playable, and for $50 during peak time you can't beat it.
Great shape for winter golf
Played on 13 Feb, so you can expect a course to have a little winter wear, but Cahoon was in good playing shape. 90 degree rule, and the sandtraps were in some of the best conditions for any course in the area. Temps hit a high in the low 50's around 2PM, then by 5 PM, it was snowing.
One of the nicer courses in Hampton Roads area
Course conditions were above average for February in Virginia. The staff is always friendly here too. My only complaint was on #11. There were approximately 4 or 5 grounds crew working in the fairway with equipment. They drove all over the fairway for several minutes and never waived us threw or acknowledged us on the tee box for several minutes. We finally just hit our shots hoping not to injure anyone. Otherwise, nice course and fair price.
