Kiskiack at Kiskiack Golf Club

Kiskiack Golf Club sits in Williamsburg, Virginia, designed by John LaFoy and opened in the 1990s as part of the area's growing golf landscape. The course occupies land in the historic Tidewater region, where colonial history and modern development intersect. LaFoy, a regional architect with several courses in Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic, created a layout that works with the natural terrain characteristic of the Coastal Plain—relatively gentle topography with wooded corridors, occasional elevation changes, and the potential for water features that reflect the area's hydrology.

The routing moves through mature hardwoods and pines, with fairways that typically offer reasonable width but require accuracy to avoid the tree lines that define most holes. Water comes into play on several holes, a common element in Tidewater course design where natural drainage patterns and ponds are incorporated into the strategy. The greens feature moderate undulation, and bunkering follows traditional placement principles without excessive theatricality.

Kiskiack serves primarily as a daily-fee facility, accessible to both locals and the steady stream of visitors drawn to Williamsburg's historical attractions and golf offerings. The course fits comfortably within the region's middle tier of public and semi-private options, providing a straightforward test that emphasizes course management over extreme length or difficulty. Its location near Colonial Williamsburg and other major attractions makes it a practical choice for golfers combining sightseeing with rounds during their stay in the area.
