About this course

The Hollows Golf Club sits in the rolling Piedmont countryside near Montpelier, Virginia, a region known for its pastoral landscapes and proximity to historic estates. The course was designed by J. K. Timmions, whose work in the mid-Atlantic emphasizes routing that follows natural land contours. The property features the elevation changes and wooded corridors typical of central Virginia terrain, with fairways that move through hardwood forests and open meadowland. The Cottage/Road routing at The Hollows represents one of the club's available nines, suggesting a multi-course or rotating-nine configuration. Courses in this area often incorporate stone walls, creek crossings, and views across the Piedmont's characteristic ridgelines. The design likely takes advantage of the property's natural drainage patterns and existing tree lines to create variety in hole character and strategic options. The Montpelier area, named for the nearby estate of President James Madison, offers a setting steeped in Virginia history and agrarian tradition. Golf courses here tend to reflect a quieter, more pastoral character compared to resort destinations, with memberships drawn from the surrounding counties and the Charlottesville region. The club operates within a landscape where horse farms and vineyards share the countryside, providing a distinctly regional atmosphere that shapes the golfing experience.

Getting there

The Hollows Golf Club, nestled in the rolling piedmont near Montpelier, Virginia, is most readily accessed via Richmond International Airport (RIC), approximately forty-five minutes to the south, or Washington Dulles International (IAD), roughly ninety minutes to the north - both gateways serving the broader Central Virginia region. Private aviation finds a natural home at nearby airstrips catering to the area's equestrian and estate communities, though the club's discrete location rewards those who embrace the unhurried drive through Virginia's historic countryside.
