About The Hollows Golf Club

Nestled in the rolling countryside of Montpelier, Virginia, The Hollows Golf Club offers a challenging yet enjoyable experience for golfers of all skill levels. Designed by Algie Pulley and opened in 1999, the course is renowned for its immaculate conditions, strategic layout, and picturesque setting. The design philosophy emphasizes working with the natural topography, featuring mature trees, subtle elevation changes, and well-placed hazards that demand thoughtful shot-making.

The course unfolds beautifully across 18 holes, providing a diverse mix of long par-4s, challenging par-3s, and reachable par-5s. Golfers will find themselves navigating tree-lined fairways, approaching well-bunkered greens, and contending with water features that come into play on several holes. The bentgrass greens are consistently praised for their speed and true roll, adding another layer of challenge to the putting game.

The Hollows provides a complete golf experience, from its friendly staff and well-maintained practice facilities to its comfortable clubhouse. It's a course that rewards precision and course management, encouraging players to think their way around rather than simply overpower it. Whether you're a local looking for a regular round or a visitor seeking a memorable golf outing in Central Virginia, The Hollows Golf Club delivers a quality experience that stands out.
