Fords Colony - Blackheath Course
The Ford's Colony courses are a class act. Everything is done well. The second you enter the property, you experience the welcome and the quality. Our team played the Blackheath course and our tee time preceded the lady member's 9 hole league which was well-attended. The staff was diligent about making sure they were being supported both on the course and before and after the competition. We had a chance to chat with some of the ladies and they were very complimentary of the course and the staff. The staff met our vehicle upon arrival with efficiency and smiles.
The course was in great condition and enjoyable to play, and you can expect with heavy rain there might be issues to deal with. We particularly enjoyed the flow of the course which included a test of your various clubs and memorable holes that left us wanting to play them again. Dan Maples designed a course that is both fun to play and a challenge. Williamsburg has some quality golf in its vicinity. Ford's Colony is certainly among the top tier of courses in the area.
Ford's Colony has a very useful app that can be downloaded. Yardages, information and hole diagrams are available. Leave your caddy at home and download the app if you are playing.
The practice facilities were well cared for and more than sufficient to support the day's players. The restaurant had very good bar-type food with top shelf service. The pro shop was well stocked with applicable merchandise. We are happy to report that the golf is in good hands at Ford's Colony. The course is a quality course with a mix of holes that require the use of every club in the bag. Conditions were superior and the flow of the course was both interesting and enjoyable. It was fair to golfers of all abilities and played at a good pace. #experincevirginiagolf #virginiagolfcoursereviews #VirginiaGolf #fordscolonyblackheath
