“#3 in Virginia” —Golf Advisor 2015

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.
