williamsburg golf at fords colony golf course

In the year 1606 King James I sent the first colonist to Virginia, and the game of golf followed soon thereafter. But it was another 300 years later before Dan Maples built a course fit for a king, right here at Ford's Colony.

 Now Ford's Colony boasts 54 holes of this civilized pastime. Each one, designed with a solid appreciation of all levels of play. Designer Dan Maples, recipient of Golf Digest's highest award for course design, states: "Ford's Colony is truly a player's course. Built with championship qualities, it's capable of challenging the skills of any pro without taking away from an amateur's enjoyment. Not many courses offer this flexibility."

These twin regulation eighteen hole resort courses were built on rolling hills and feature tall pines complimenting their beautiful scenery. The fairways on the original courses are defined by a thick cut of rough.

The White/Red Course offers tree-lined fairways that are open, while its greens are medium in size and speed. There are ponds that come into play on several holes. The signature hole is #4, a 402-yard, par 4, requiring a precise tee shot up a dogleg fairway, then an approach shot to a well-bunkered green. This course measures 6755 yards from the tips with a slope of 126. From the men's tee's it measures a hardy 6237 yards with a slope of 122.

 The Blue/Gold Course has fairly open fairways and greens that are somewhat undulating. There are water hazards that come into play on several holes and sand bunkers spread throughout the entire course. The signature hole is #8, a 192-yard, par 3, requiring a tee shot over water to the green. This course measures 6769 yards from the tips with a slope of 124. From the men's tee's it measures 6182 yards with a slope of 120.
