“#3 in Virginia” —Golf Advisor 2015

Bill “Farmer” Meadows’ dream, Meadows Farms Golf
Course, has become one of the most unique courses
in all of America. Located in Locust Grove, VA, this
27-hole layout features several golf holes that can only
be described as one-of-a-kind. From the 841-yard par 6
recognized in The Guinness Book of Records as “The
Longest Hole in the United States” to the baseball and
waterfall holes, Meadows Farms combines fun and great
value. Bill Meadows’ talent for unique landscaping can also
be seen throughout the course. A pre-civil war homestead
and cemetery on the very ground where civil war battles
were fought can also be found here. A fabulous clubhouse
overlooking the course features the Red Bull Grill. Situated
on beautiful gently rolling countryside, Meadows Farms is
located 75 minutes from Washington, D.C., and Richmond,
45 minutes from Charlottesville, and only 15 minutes from
Fredericksburg.
