Designer: Tom Fazio
Course Opened: 1992

"At The Virginian, we have built a course that honors the land it's built upon, which fulfills the commitment we made to the owners, and which provides a thrill for the player. You won't find a better course anywhere. I like the way the whole place feels. From the country drive, through the stone entrance walls: you know something special is going on out here.

The long range views from across the valleys, with the ridges, the mountains in the background, are spectacular. We made no compromises at The Virginian. The fairway carpet is zoysia, the greens are the finest Pennlinks bent, and there are several other grass varieties around bunkers and roughs to add color and texture to the course.

Each hole is unique, with its own special challenge for the golfer. In some locations, blessed by Mother Nature, there was little issue figuring out where to place the holes. The Virginian's land is one of those areas of great natural beauty, with a high knoll as the obvious starting point. From the clubhouse, you can look in all directions and see what I hope you will agree is a magnificent golf course. We hope it adds something to the game of golf."

-- Tom Fazio, Designer of the Virginian Golf Club
