Virginia's golf landscape includes 223 named golf courses and country clubs distributed across 201 cities and 80 counties. These facilities are drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System, the federal gazetteer of named places, ensuring that each entry represents a real, named facility organized by geographic location.

The directory reflects what the GNIS records at a given time, which means it captures a particular moment in the state's golf infrastructure. Newer courses or recently renamed facilities may not yet appear in the federal database, and the catalog does not include operational details such as whether a course is public or private, current fee structures, or specific layout information. To obtain details about a course's current status, hours of operation, rates, and availability for booking, players should consult the individual facility's website after locating it through the directory by city and county.

Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.

How to use the Virginia directory

Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
