Considered the "Crown Jewel of Virginia golf," the legendary Gold course at Golden Horseshoe ranks #55 on GOLF Magazine's 2008 "Top 100 Courses You Can Play" based on excellence in design, conditioning and service. Created by Robert Trent Jones in 1963, the course boasts Jones' first island green on the par-three 16th. In fact, all four par threes are memorable in their own right and require a tee shot over water. Narrow rolling fairways lined by tall pines and ancient hardwoods lead to...
Designed by world-renowned architect, Rees Jones, the Green course at Golden Horseshoe is a perfect complement to the adjacent Gold course. Well respected by visitors and locals alike for its excellent turf, the course has been host to a number of USGA national and regional championships. Design elements are typical Jones with mounded fairways, undulated greens and well-thought-out bunker placement. Like the Gold, the Green course has also been given a well-deserved 4.5 stars by Golf Digest'...
Everybody loves Brickshire. You will too. The popularity of this Curtis Strange signature course is easily explained in two words; "player friendly." With inviting fairways, true-rolling greens, and dramatic elevation changes, Strange has created a unique experience by replicating some of his favorite holes from around the world. St. Andrews, Augusta National, Pinehurst #2 and Riviera are all represented here. You'll finish in style on the dramatic par-five 18th, which Washington Golf Monthl...
The Plantation Course, designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay, features wide fairways and multi-tiered greens. Although a perfect "first-day" course, you'll still be challenged by water on eight holes, plenty of trees, and some beautiful rolling terrain. Palmer and Seay have teamed up for some fantastic courses through the years and the Plantation is no exception. They'll force you to think your way around the track and position your tee shots for the path of least resistance to each green....

Wow. Talk about flawless conditions. The River Course at Kingsmill Resort is one of those tracks you just have to play. The course recently underwent a "design renaissance" by original architect, Pete Dye. Dye was blessed with a tremendous location for a golf course and he simply perfected his original vision. Bordered by the James River, the layout takes you through beautiful tree-lined fairways with dramatic views of the James and surrounding area. Ranked #8 in Virginia by Golfweek,...

As the touring professional for Kingsmill, Curtis Strange was asked to design a third course to complement the River and Plantation Courses. Strange and Tom Clark were given a fantastic piece of land tucked away in the corner of the resort to work with. The result is the Woods Course with deep ravines and thick stands of hardwood trees as well as some of the most dramatic elevation changes in the area. The course has been honored by Golf Magazine as one of the "Top Ten New Courses Avail...

A good mix of forgiving holes and "white knucklers" make Kiskiack a perfect choice for all groups. The front nine allows golfers to find their swings with ample landing areas, gently sloped greens while winding through the tall hardwoods and rolling terrain. The back becomes more challenging with menacing par threes, a deep ravine running along three holes, and a perfect "risk/reward" finishing hole. You can also be assured of a great condition and true Virginian hospitality at Kiskiack....
Four Stars from Golf Digest and one of the top 100 mid-Atlantic courses named by Washington Golf Monthly.
Rated as the #2 course in Virginia by Golf Digest, Royal New Kent is a tribute to the legendary links of Ireland. Creeks and small ravines snake through the fairway while sharp hills, hand-stacked rock walls, and tall grasses hide many greens. Most fairways are wide and inviting and the greens are large and receptive to most shots. A few hidden, deep bunkers will keep you from spraying it around too much. Come see one of Golf Digest's 1999 "Top 100 Courses", you will not be disappo...

#6 in "Best in State Rankings" - Golf Digest
Best new upscale public course in America for 1997
Steep hills, wide plateaus and abrupt ravines greet golfers at this Mike Stranz design. Dramatic bunkering and long carries are balanced by broad fairways and enormous greens. The natural surroundings might become distractive as you try to focus on the task at hand. See for yourself why Golf Digest ranks it #11 in Virginia, as well as "best new upscale public course in the nation" in 1996....
Named as "one of the top 10 places to play in Virginia" and rated 3.5 stars by Golf Digest, Williamsburg National is a course that will fit into everyone's schedule. Located just minutes from most area hotels, the course was carved out of stately maples, cedars and oaks, capturing the flavor of the Virginia landscape. The front nine is relatively flat for the area, with the back nine, though shorter, made up of much more rolling terrain. Many of the greens on the back are either elevated ...
Founded in 2007, the Yorktown is the newer of the two courses at Williamsburg National. Course architect, Tom Clark, did yeoman's work on this 7000-yard traditional design. With no gimmicks to speak of, Clark presents a straightforward challenge that plays through thick forests from start to finish. The finish is most spectacular as two of the last three holes measure nearly 600 yards each. This popular club has a large local membership and also features a beautiful clubhouse with an excellent ...
