River Course Peter
Dye Design
Nestled deep in the heart of the lush
splendor of historic Williamsburg and bordered by the James
River’s tranquil blue waters is where you’ll find the famous
championship River Course at Kingsmill Resort. For more than a
quarter of a century, the fairways and greens of this Anheuser-Busch
jewel have challenged a who’s who of PGA and LPGA champions past
and present. The River Course recently underwent a design
renaissance as part of a multi-million dollar renovation overseen by
original course architect, Pete Dye. And the final result is pure
perfection. A look that’s timeless. Flawless conditions. And a
range of holes for all skill levels. Resulting in a course you’ll
move to the top of your must-play list.

Plantation Course
Arnold Palmer &
Ed Seay Design
The Plantation Course is an Arnold Palmer
and Ed Seay design that challenges players of all skill
levels. The 6,432-yard, par-72 course favors accurate iron
play and good putting.
Fairway landing areas are generous, but water comes into
play on eight holes, and there’s no shortage of deep
woods or yawning ravines. Greens are large and provide
inviting targets for approach shots. Once on the putting
surface, undulations and swales make getting down in two a
satisfying accomplishment. With landmarks from Richard
Kingsmill’s 1736 plantation woven into the landscape, a
round on the Plantation Course is truly historic. |

Woods Course
Tom Clark Design
Golf course architect Tom Clark designed this
course in concert with two-time U.S. Open champion Curtis Strange.
The Woods Course is a classic parkland-style design that occupies
a secluded corner of the resort. The Woods Course is an instant
hit with all golfers. In a recent Zagat Survey, the Woods Course
was named one of America’s Top Golf Courses. The Woods Course is
a 6,659-yard layout with an interesting mix of long and short
holes, giving golfers the opportunity to use every club in their
bag. A unique feature is the double green with a bunker in the
center shared by the par-3 12th hole and the par-4 15th hole. The
Woods Course is a delight to play, time after time. |
Bray Links
Tom Clark Design
The nine-hole, par-3 Bray Links is located
directly adjacent to the beautiful James River. Designed by Woods
Course architect Tom Clark, the Bray Links is ideal for all
golfers - from the avid player to family fun. The Bray Links is
short in length, but long on excellent conditioning. The bentgrass
greens and Bermuda rough are maintained by the same grounds keeping
staff as the adjacent River Course. Lush and colorful ornamental
landscaping changes with the seasons, complementing the course's
sweeping views of the river. Golf Digest stated, "The most
opulent par-3 course in the country must surely be Kingsmill
Resort's terrific Bray Links." Whether you’re playing a fun
round with your kids, taking a break from a meeting or sharpening
your short game, the Bray Links will provide challenging fun.
Nine-hole, par three course and it's located directly behind the
Resort Center. |
