The Hollows Golf Club

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 property features two nine-hole layouts—Lake and Cottage—that can be combined in various configurations to create an eighteen-hole round. Designer J. K. Timmions routed the course across terrain characteristic of central Virginia, where gentle elevation changes and natural water features shape the playing corridors. The Lake nine, as its name suggests, incorporates water hazards that come into play on several holes, requiring golfers to manage both distance and accuracy around ponds and wetland areas. The Cottage nine offers a complementary character, likely moving through more wooded or open sections of the property depending on the specific routing. Together, the two nines provide variety in both visual setting and strategic demands, with the natural topography dictating hole corridors and green sites. The Hollows serves as a semi-private facility in the Montpelier area, offering golf in a relatively quiet corner of Virginia between Charlottesville and the Blue Ridge foothills. The course caters to both members and outside play, functioning as a regional amenity in a part of the state where large-scale resort development is less common. The combination of two distinct nines allows for flexible tee time management and gives returning players different looks depending on which eighteen-hole pairing they choose.
