Williamsburg, Virginia is one of the most sought after golf destinations in the world. It is a
haven for the discriminating golfer who is seeking new challenges, as well as a relaxing
getaway for the amateur who just wants to golf and enjoy the beautiful sights, sounds, and
culture of the South. In Williamsburg, your experience is about more than golfing. It’s also about
getting the biggest bang for your buck, and the best way to do that is by booking one of the
many available Williamsburg golf packages. There are various options to make sure you get the
perfect package that is catered to what you want to do, at a price you can feel comfortable
paying.
One of the most beautiful and sought after courses is the Golden Horseshoe. This public
course actually includes two courses. It’s also completely surrounded by woods and is an official
Audubon sanctuary. This means you won’t have residential noise to mess up your game. The
Gold course was designed by famed architect, Robert Trent Jones, Sr., who said it was his
favorite design. This course has won several awards and ranks in the top one-hundred golf
courses, on a regular basis. The Green course was designed by Rees Jones, Robert Trent
Jones’ son. According to Jones this course is a “shot-makers course”. This course will take you
through twenty acres of gorgeous matured hardwood forest while the birds sing to you. Both of
these courses have been used in championship games. When you are making your choice of
one of the Williamsburg golf packages, the Golden Horseshoe should certainly be at the top of
your list.
Another fantastic deal you can get from booking one of the Williamsburg golf packages
is for Kingsmill Resort. These courses were designed by some of the golf greats that many
people who don’t even golf know of. Those names include Arnold Palmer and Tom Clark as well
as two-time U.S. Open champion, Curtis Strange. The Kingsmill Resort is located on the former
Kingsmill Plantation site. The plantation, however, has long been in ruins. The courses here are
known to have vast greens and are nestled in a small community that shares the same name.
Golf Digest has ranked this resort as one of the top seventy-five best golf resorts in North
America. There are two courses at this resort to choose from - the River Course, that overlooks
the James River, or the Plantation Course, with its enticing rolling fairways.

The Golden Horseshoe Golf Club
Golf at its finest is what the Golden Horseshoe Golf Club is all about. Set away from the encroaching real estate, golfers will find themselves captured by the resort’s convenient location as well as the scenic fairways designed by the famed father and son tandem, Robert Trent Jones Jr. and Rees Jones. You can choose either from the Green Course or the Gold Course in which both considered as a certified Audubon sanctuaries. These popular golf vacation destinations are also consistent recipients of high ratings from reputable golf publications.
The “Green Course” which was designed by the younger Jones features the 18-hole layout that offers a 7,120-yard par 72 play. This championship-caliber golf course was opened in 1991 and since then continued a legacy of excellent golfing. What makes this layout attractive is that it brings out the challenges of golf which perfectly blends with the impressive mix of natural terrain with a slope rating of 130 and course rating of 75.1. That is why the course was named as one of the “Top 10 Golf Courses in Virginia” and was given a 4 ½ star rating by Golf Digest Magazine.
The “Gold Course” on the other hand is a Robert Trent Jones Sr. masterpiece that was opened for play in 1963. This stunning championship golf layout features a 144 slope rating on Bermuda grass and a course rating of 73.8. Although it’s a bit short from the Green course with the 6,817 yards of play, this golf gem can surprise you with the various challenges as you move on along the course.
