Williamsburg, Virginia

Robert Trent Jones Sr.'s celebrated parkland layout at Colonial Williamsburg — top 75 public course in America. Routed through dense Virginia hardwood with classic strategic bunkering and one of the best par-3 finishes in the state.

Mike Strantz's Irish-inspired links masterpiece — bold, dramatic, and unlike anything else in Virginia. Recently restored and reopened, with sweeping fairways and signature Strantz green complexes.

Mike Strantz design dubbed "American Inland Links" — wild elevation changes through Virginia hardwood, dramatic fairway contours, and vintage Strantz creativity throughout. A bucket-list course for design fans.

Rees Jones design alongside the Gold Course at Colonial Williamsburg — more open and playable than its sister, with wide fairways and excellent conditioning. A great companion round to the Gold.

Rees Jones-designed semi-private course in New Kent winding through a working vineyard. Beautiful conditioning, generous landing areas, and a relaxed pace that pairs perfectly with a tasting after the round.

One of three Dan Maples-designed courses at the 54-hole Ford''s Colony resort. Blackheath is the most challenging of the trio — narrow, wooded fairways with strategic water hazards. A solid mid-tier country club experience.

Sister course to Blackheath at the 54-hole Ford''s Colony resort. Blue Heron is more open and forgiving, with sweeping water and marsh views — a good complement to the more demanding Blackheath layout.

The third 18 at Ford''s Colony''s 54-hole facility. Marsh Hawk threads through Tidewater wetlands with dramatic carries and well-protected greens. Pairs naturally with Blackheath or Blue Heron for a 36-hole day on property.

Arthur Hills design that''s a strong budget pick for Williamsburg — well-conditioned, generous fairways, and one of the best values in Tidewater. A great warm-up or wind-down round to balance the marquee Golden Horseshoe / Royal New Kent days.
