Meadows Farms Golf Course is the dream of Bill “Farmer”
Meadows and 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
by 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 is also evident
throughout the course. A pre-civil war homestead and
cemetery on the very ground where civil war battles were
fought is also 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.

Rated HHHH —Golf Digest
Pre-Civil War clubhouse, picturesque views of the Catoctin
Mountains, a large natural grass practice facility and 18
well-manicured holes are just the beginning. Overall,
golfers will find a fair, challenging and gratifying course with
two distinctly different 9-holes. The front nine is considered
more open compared to the longer, tree-lined back nine.
With a four star rating by Golf Digest, Mountain View
features a full grass practice range, short game area, and
putting green. What distinguishes Mountain View from other
golf clubs is not only its exceptional playability and great
condition but its great value. After your round, reminisce
while enjoying a bite and cold beverage in our Grill–Pavilion
with picturesque views of the 9th, 10th, and 18th holes.
A must play FOUR STAR Golf Digest course located just
minutes from the historic Gettysburg battlefields. Come
play this hidden treasure where you’ll frequently find the
smoothest and quickest greens in the area.
