The Location

Setting

Located on the banks of the historic James River, this luxury country club includes a modern clubhouse, golf course, onsite dining and thoughtful amenities.

Things To Do

Lovingly dubbed Hampton Roads, Virginia’s Tidewater region invites oceanfront energy and a diverse patchwork of arts, cuisine and traditions. Serving as the birthplace of English America with the establishment of Jamestown in 1607, Tidewater is home to historic jewels like Colonial Williamsburg and Historic Jamestowne. The largest naval base in the world resides here and the extensive Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean coastline casts a soft sandy ribbon of scenic waterfronts and active beaches, attracting millions of visitors each year. Boating and fishing are the draw on the Chesapeake Bay while hiking and birdwatching keeps coastal marshlands and state parks buzzing. Beachgoers seeking respite from sunbathing and swimming head to the iconic three-mile Virginia Beach boardwalk for retail, regional seafood specialties and four summer oceanfront live music stages.
