Colonial Heritage Golf Club offers the only Arthur Hills-designed layout in Williamsburg, and it is also the city's only gated golf community. Golfers looking for a place where they can just 'grip it and rip it' will be out of luck on this course, which requires skill and strategy. It is a thought-provoking design where golfers will want to weigh all of the risk and reward options first. The layout plays through deep ravines that provide interesting changes in elevation. The golf course also features undulating fairways and large, fast greens that are bordered by strategically placed bunkers as well as water hazards that come into play on several holes. Colonial Heritage G.C. definitely provides a good challenge, even for a seasoned player, but beginners shouldn't feel too intimidated. The golf course offers some room for error and the risk-reward opportunities appeal to low and high handicappers alike.

Greens are excellent

Love this course except for the 5th hole - always in good condition - greens were exceptional best in Williamsburg this year - rough was thick so keep it in the short grass

Great course close to resort

Played in an afternoon and was fairly empty due to some afternoon rain. Course was beautiful and most holes were generous off the tee. Course was in great shape and greens were great as well. If back in the area would definitely play again. Value was great for the price

Lovely layout, fun!

Challenging but manageable on whites if you keep it in the fairway. Undulating fairways and great greens. Makes me wanna move to Williamsburg and join the club!

Excellent Pro Shop Staff

Shout out to the Pro Shop. There was an issue with my Golf Now booking as it did not appear in the system. The staff member got me out pretty much on time and with a discounted rate even better than Golf Now. Tough course on a windy day. Greens were great, would love to play this course in the summer when the fairways grow in.

Mediocre at best

Course is beautiful, well kept and the greens are in reasonable shape (ball marks) Unfortunately that’s the only good things. The pace of play is horrendous almost 3 hours for 9 holes, all the staff I encountered were not at all friendly. All amenities closed on the turn and no beverage cart. Would not recommend.

Our only reason not to give it 5 stars was the absence of restrooms on the course.
