Frequently Asked Questions

When is the absolute best time to play Virginia Golf Course for ideal conditions?

Spring (April-May) and Fall (September-October) are your sweet spots here. The fairways are lush, the greens roll true, and you'll avoid the intense summer humidity that can really drain your energy on those uphill climbs. We prefer late October when the fall foliage adds a spectacular backdrop to several holes.

What's the most challenging or memorable hole at Virginia Golf Course?

Without a doubt, the par-4 14th will stick with you. It demands a precise tee shot over a ravine to a narrow landing area, followed by an uphill approach to a multi-tiered green that punishes anything short or long. We've seen many good rounds unravel right there, so play it smart.

Is Virginia Golf Course a good option for a walking round, or should I plan on taking a cart?

While you can walk it, we strongly recommend a cart, especially if you're playing 18. The course features significant elevation changes, particularly on the back nine, with some long, steep treks between greens and tees. Save your legs for your swing, not the hills.

How does the overall value and experience at Virginia Golf Course stack up against other top courses in the Virginia area?

We find Virginia Golf Course offers excellent value for its quality, especially compared to some of the pricier resort courses nearby. You get a meticulously maintained, challenging layout with a classic feel, without the exorbitant green fees. It's a genuine golfer's course, focused on the game itself.

What's the clubhouse like, and are there any recommended activities or dining options nearby for after the round?

The clubhouse is charming and unpretentious, with a solid grill room for a post-round drink and a good burger. For dinner, we always head into the nearby historic town of Leesburg for its excellent farm-to-table restaurants and local breweries. It's a perfect way to cap off a day on the links.
