The Club at Viniterra

Viniterra, carved into the rolling landscape of New Kent County, Virginia, evokes the region's deep agricultural roots and equestrian heritage, providing an experience as much about the setting as the golf itself. Designed by Rees Jones, the modern layout eschews dramatic elevation changes in favor of subtle undulations and strategic bunkering that reward thoughtful shot-making. Water hazards and strategically placed trees come into play, but the course generally favors players who can work the ball left to right, with several doglegs encouraging controlled fades off the tee. While Viniterra hasn't hosted major championships, its meticulously maintained conditions and challenging layout make it a popular venue for regional amateur events. The course has earned recognition as one of the better public courses in the Richmond area, attracting players seeking a well-designed and enjoyable round without the pretense of a more exclusive club. Beyond the course, Viniterra offers a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere reflective of the surrounding countryside. The grill room, a favorite post-round haunt, features a hearty menu of local fare and a selection of Virginia wines – a nod to the region’s burgeoning viticulture scene, which further amplifies the appeal and charm of Viniterra.
