The Course With Character
The rolling fairways, strategically placed bunkers, natural wetlands and undulating putting surfaces, make Sycamore Creek Golf Course a delightful challenge for players of all ability.
The course is a signature Michael Hurdzan design, with no two holes the same. Not an especially long course, pinpoint shot-making and golf course management skills are a must to master this course. Verdant fairways, manageable roughs, manicured greens, and glistening bunkers are the norm, not the exception.
As described by Dr. Hurdzan, "we encourage the use of multiple tees, wide landing zones, offset angles of play and forgiveness or containment for errant shots of the less skilled, but a demanding array of risk and reward shot values for competitive golfers. We design greens which are sensitive to the approach shots of all golfers, which drain well and make skillful putting a reasonable part of the game."
Fantastic Green Conditions
Sycamore Creek is consistently ranked by local golfers as having the finest public course turf conditions in the Central Virginia area. Naturally fed by an abundance of lakes, creeks and fresh water springs, the Bermuda fairways and bent grass greens are lush ("40 shades of green") and a joy to play. Working 365 days a year, we believe our talented grounds keeping crew is among the best in the country, and time and time again, our well-conditioned greens prove it.
In April 2008, the Richmond Times Dispatch voted us "Best Greens" in Richmond.
