The Olde Farm
Its rustic elegance and complete lack of distractions lend The Olde Farm its distinguished character and rural charm. The links-style course features bentgrass greens, tees, and fairways, with rough consisting of Kentucky Bluegrass. Perhaps Golf Digest’s Ron Whitten said it best after naming The Olde Farm Best New Private Course of 2000: “The Olde Farm, Bobby Weed’s first Best New winning design, is old school yet representative of the future of golf.” Or as we like to say, pure golf at its best.

The Virginian
The 21-hole course and practice facilities, designed by the great Tom Fazio, offers a golfer’s dream day on the links. Playing 7,025 yards from the championship tees, fairway carpeted in zoysia, the greens with the finest Pennlinks bent, and plenty of other colors and textures along the way.
“At The Virginian, we have built a course that honors the land it’s built upon, which fulfills the commitment we made to the owners, and which provides a thrill for the player. You won’t find a better course anywhere. I like the way the whole place feels. From the country drive, through the stone entrance walls: you know something special is going on out here…”
— Tom Fazio, Designer of the Virginian Golf Club
