Courses

Frequently Asked Questions

With only two courses, is Richmond really worth a dedicated golf trip?

Absolutely, if you appreciate quality over quantity. Richmond's two courses offer distinct, memorable experiences that make for a perfect, focused golf weekend. You'll find a challenging championship layout and a classic, walkable track, ensuring you get a full taste of Virginia golf without feeling rushed.

What's the best time of year to play golf in Richmond, considering its limited options?

We always recommend visiting Richmond in the spring (April-May) or fall (September-October) for ideal conditions. The courses are in peak shape, and you'll avoid the oppressive summer humidity and the chill of winter, making for truly enjoyable rounds on both layouts.

Are Richmond's two courses suitable for all skill levels, or are they more geared towards experienced players?

You'll find a good balance here; one course presents a formidable challenge that will test even low handicappers, while the other offers a more forgiving, enjoyable round for all skill levels. Both are impeccably maintained, so you'll always have a fair fight regardless of your game.

What should I expect regarding green fees and overall costs for a golf trip to Richmond?

Richmond offers excellent value for the quality of golf you'll experience. Expect green fees to range from $70-120 per round, making it an accessible destination where your golf budget stretches further than in some more famous regions. You won't find exorbitant resort prices here, just solid, enjoyable golf.

Beyond the golf, what else is there to do in Richmond to round out a short trip?

With only two courses, you'll have plenty of time to explore Richmond's vibrant scene. We love hitting the historic Shockoe Bottom for great dining and craft breweries, or diving into the city's rich Civil War history. It's a city with character, perfect for unwinding after your rounds.
