Upset Player

I played this course several months ago and I said then that I would never play it again. For some reason, I decided to return, surely it was because of the Hot Rate. The greens were terrible. It appears that weeds were actually growing on the greens. I was told to play the Yorktown course, which was supposed to be in better shape. I was told by other golfer at the end of my round that the Jamestown course was terrible also.

.The National Golf Course (Yorktown)

Great course very challenging, fairway were great but the putting surfaces seemed diseased brown spots all over so you couldn't get true roll on your putts.
If the green were maintained better I would like to play there again.

Not impressed

I book this round as a hot deal for $37. If I had to pay the regular $60 weekend rate I wouldn't be happy at all.
The course was in rough shape. Some of the greens were burnt up and all had spots of crabgrass or some other (non-greens) type grass growing all over them.
It's my understanding the course is up for sale so it goes to reason that the current owners aren't spending much to keep it in good shape.
Tee time was 8:40 on a Sunday morning. No starter, and only 1 of the two courses were open. So we were stacked up unnecessarily.
The temps were in 90's and they had no beverage cart on the course.

The course allows for a good score if club selection is right.

The greens have a disease so they were in bad shape. If paying rack rate would have ask for a refund but with golf now price good deal. Fairways need work before they get out of hand with weeds. Sand traps need work, looks like a week since last raked. Layout was very good for you to score good if the driver wasn't used on every part 4 and 5 hole. Par 3 holes were great distance, not long and a good place to get a birdie. Hole 14 is a par 3 with the green 2 tiered so if the flag is in the middle or up front and you are long expect to putt up a 5 foot hill to the top level. I have played the course when the greens, sand traps and fairways were in good shape and they would get a 5 star rating.

Williamsburg National Club Yorktown course review

The greens were atrocious. Not expected of this level of golf course. Not sure if it's been the recent rainy weather or poor green management, but many of the holes had bald spots and dirt patches. I guess I can't complain too much. $15 dollar green fees. Disappointing since the golf course itself was in a great location and backdrop of nice Williamsburg homes.

This is my first time playing the Yorktown Course. I think that I like it better than the Jamestown Course. The greens were in a bit better shape on this course, too. Look forward to playing it again!

Better than Jamestown

I liked this course better than Jamestown. It played well and I enjoyed the layout. That said, the greens rolled ok but were in terrible shape. Couldn't tell where the fairways were on some hole because they hadn't been mowed. Lost a ball in the fairway in the clover - yes clover! Generally seems to be not well attended to. I played on a GolfNow hot deal, so for the price it was great. Not worth the regular full price. Still I had fun!

Patchy Greens

This course was in good shape and played well earlier in the spring. The greens are not currently in good condition and do not putt well as a result.
The bunkers have suffered from all the rain also and will need some work.

I will play this course again

To begin my re view it rained heavily in the area a day prior to our play day. Course was cart-path-only. Usually, not a good thing, but it turned out to be a good day. The weather was nice the course was not really that wet. The greens on the first couple of holes were not in the best of shape, but the back 9 played very nice. I chose Yorktown because it was the more challenging of the two. I'll have to return to see if that is correct. Rate on Golf Now was very good. We are already looking for dates to return to play the Williamsburg course.

Nice Course

This is a nice course to play, we enjoyed it more than the Jamestown course. The course was very wet from rain the previous days and some of the bunkers were in very rough shape because of the downpours the days before, at least that is what we were assuming.

We played from the whites because of our skill level but could have played from the blues to make it a hair more challenging.

Nice big greens, pretty easy to hit and very receptive, but again, a lot of rain in the days before we played. Greens could use a little work on a couple of the holes, but that is if you really want to nit pick, the parts needing work never came into play with our pin positions (4).

Pace of play was very good. Completed 18 in under 3 hours with a couple groups letting us play through.

I would recommend giving this course a try, we will return.

Nice layout Needs some TLC

There had been quite a bit of rain the week before and they were only allowing 90 degree access off the cart path. Even with the rain the fairways were mostly dry and firm so I was surprised by the cart restriction. They also don't have a "Blue" flag exemption. The course is a nice layout but the weeds are terrible and it could use some freshening.
