Testimonials

“God has heaven and Virginia has the Golden Horseshoe. God wants to renegotiate. If there is a stronger set of par-3s than those on the Gold Course, it’s not on this planet.”

“The most memorable element of the Gold Course is a true island hole, one of the first anywhere, with a fully bunkered green playing to 169 yards from the championship tee. The view of the green from the elevated tee is stunning, but then you have to play the shot.”
