Tees at Kiskiack Golf Club

Kiskiack Golf Club sits in Williamsburg, Virginia, designed by John LaFoy and opened in the mid-1990s as part of the residential community development that characterizes much of the greater Williamsburg area. The course occupies rolling terrain typical of the Virginia Tidewater region, with moderate elevation changes and wooded corridors framing most holes. LaFoy, a regional architect with several courses in Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic, created a layout that works within the natural topography while accommodating the surrounding residential neighborhoods.

The routing moves through mature hardwood forests and around several ponds and wetland areas that come into play on multiple holes. Water hazards factor into the strategy on roughly half the course, requiring carries off the tee or approaches over creeks and pond edges. The design emphasizes accuracy over distance, with tree-lined fairways that reward positioning and penalize wayward shots. Greens are moderately contoured with subtle breaks, protected by bunkers and natural waste areas.

Kiskiack serves primarily as a daily-fee facility accessible to both residents of the surrounding community and visiting golfers exploring the Williamsburg area. The course complements the region's better-known layouts, offering a straightforward test of golf in a wooded, residential setting. It remains a local option for those seeking a round in the historic Williamsburg corridor, which includes several other courses catering to the area's tourism and retirement demographics.
