The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
The 1991 Robert Trent Jones Jr. sibling to the Gold, a more open, rolling parkland routing through big southern pines that golfers consistently call the friendlier, more affordable Williamsburg resort round. Reviewers like the sweeping fairways, the sense of seclusion in the woods and the par 3s, and several say they enjoy it more than the Gold on a value basis.
Consistently praised
- Big, sweeping fairways framed by tall pines, with very little outside distraction.
- More room and friendlier landing zones than the Gold; strong par 3s that reviewers single out as the scenic highlights.
Worth knowing
- Conditioning sometimes runs a step behind its more famous sibling.
Golfers recommend
- Take advantage of the wider fairways and lean on driver where the Gold would punish you.
- Walk it if able; the routing rolls naturally through the woods.
