Chesapeake Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Chesapeake Golf Club sits tucked away in the idyllic village of Las Gaviotas, conveniently situated just 15 minutes from downtown Norfolk. Boasting some of the best greens in the Tidewater area, the club offers the amenities of a private club with the fees of a public golf course. The layout will challenge you with rolling fairways and tricky doglegs. Water hazards come into play frequently so be prepared for a few intimidating blind shots over water. Mature trees line the rolling fairways and there are also strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. The manageable 6,278-yard length is approachable for beginners yet there are still holes that long hitters will enjoy. Chesapeake Golf Club is a course that will test your skills but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

What a great course this was to get back into golf after 25 years. Enough hazards to keep it interesting but forgiving enough that I only lost three balls.
Will definitely be back, hopefully when the grass is grown in and there are less aeration marks and sand coverage on the greens.
Good experience
Honestly I was pleasantly surprised with this course. Great layout, well maintained and overall great time. Would definitely recommend.
Worst management around
10 carts waiting on the tee box, 45 min behind schedule solely due to over booking. Took 6 hrs to play 18 holes.
Greens are good
Been a while since I last played this course and was not disappointed. Will play again when my schedule allows
Challenging course
The greens and fairways are all in decent shape. There are several holes where the fairways are split near the halfway point, right where your first drive wants to go! Highly recommend.
Great Course, just slow play.
This course was in pretty good shape, fairways were good not great, greens were nice, and the tee boxes on certain holes could use a little TLC. The pace of play was awful, I know Saturday is likely the busiest day at any course but five and a half hours is far from a good pace. No Marshall and the beverage cart was only seen once. If the pace of play were to become better I would recommend this course.
Needs work.
Gas carts are not needed and are a distraction. Cart paths are terrible and need to be paved due to pot holes everywhere.
Nice course
Nice layout. Was here visiting family and found this course close to my hotel. Rate was good and the course was nice for the price. Tee boxes were ok but could use a little work. Fairways had a few weedy areas but overall in good shape. Greens were nice and rolled true. A few challenges not knowing the course. Could use some tips on the water holes to give you distance and carry from the tees. I would play here again next time I’m in town.
