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.

Fun but challenging

Four seniors, two from Lynchburg and two from Hampton, played 27 holes. No waiting and we were not pushed. The fairways were in good shape considering the lack of rain. The greens were good, not too fast or too slow. We enjoyed the course and will return.

Enjoyed the course, the greens need a little work but everything else was on point. Very challenging layout, I think I founded most of the bunkers unfortunately. Will be back again for revenge.

Hidden Gem

Loved the course. In phenomenal shape.
Had 3 groups of 4 in front of us and took a little under 5 hours to play. Course conditions were amazing. You need to take time and play this course! Pin positions were tucked behind bunkers and were tough.

No water on the course so grab it from the clubhouse. Would’ve been nice to know that prior to teeing off.

A great August day

My wife and I enjoyed an excellent round after the summer heat wave broke. Fairways, tee boxes, and greens were in excellent condition. This is a challenging course through the woodlands of a slowly growing community. Accuracy on approach shots is very important, with many bunkers guarding the greens. The greens were soft due to recent rainfall, but the ball rolled true and fast.

Course needs TLC

This will probably be the last time I play this course. Course conditions were good, e.g., tee boxes, fairways, greens, However, almost every sand trap was unplayable; erosion, standing water and mud.

They built a new cart barn and have new carts - but they are gas carts! The carts have no ball or club washers, and the ice bucket was dry, even on a hot day! Every water station on the course was empty! 2 ball washers, 1 broken. No water offered on the turn. This course is neglected, there are better options.

Great Take

I’m from out of town and my in-laws aren’t golfers so I have to do a lot of “trial and error” when it comes to courses. Found this course on a random google search and it was awesome. Staff was super friendly, course is in awesome shape, cart girl/bar staff very accommodating, all around A+

Lots of open fairways, plenty of tee box selections for long hitters or beginners, greens rolled true, and course conditions were great. I’ve been to my fair share of courses in the area but this is my new spot.
