Come experience Virginia’s most beautiful golf in
the Shenandoah Valley. This 18-hole par 72 features
bentgrass tees, fairways, and greens. Seven sets of tees
(including two PGA Family Tees) provide a challenging,
yet pleasurable, golf experience for players of all skill
levels. Measuring just over 7300 yards from the tips, the
layout consists of two very distinct 9-hole sides. The front
features several holes cut through hardwoods, while the
back nine plays in a valley. Blue Ridge Shadows continues
to rank among America’s Top 50 Women-Friendly courses
in the United States by Golf Digest Woman Magazine!
Surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, the
resort features a full-service Holiday Inn Hotel and Spa.

beltway via I-66, exit 6.

“Best of Shenandoah Valley” —Northern Virginia Daily 2016
“Top Must Play Courses” —GolfStyles

Nestled in the northern neck of the Shenandoah Valley
against the backdrop of the striking Blue Ridge Mountains
lies the picturesque Bowling Green Country Club. For
more than 30 years, both the North and South courses
have offered golfer-friendly designs with gently rolling
terrain, finely manicured conditions, and smooth bentgrass
putting surfaces. The North course features several lakes,
towering willows, and even an island green. The South
course offers a shorter course than today’s standard. While
favored among seniors and ladies, this course has plenty
of character golf for players of all abilities with its rolling
fairways and large, undulating greens. Bowling Green
North and South, managed by Wingfield Golf Properties,
are located near Winchester and Front Royal via Route
522. “Where the Skyline is Only a Short Drive Away”
