Virginia Beach has long been a favorite summer vacation spot for families from the Carolinas to New England and from Tennessee to Michigan, not only because of its central location on the east coast, but also for its pre-Revolutionary War history and intrinsic Southern charm. Here you'll also find the Navy's Atlantic fleet in Norfolk, Chesapeake Bay, great fishing, scores of parks and bike trails, and plenty of beaches. Quite naturally, the area is also a prime destination for golf. With year-round sunshine and mild temperatures for most months, the weather is also ideal for playing golf. Here you'll find public-access golf courses designed by Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus, as well as Pete Dye, Gene Bates, George Cobb and Rees Jones, all within 45 minutes of each other.
Jack Nicklaus has designed more than 200 golf courses around the world and his effort at Bay Creek Resort & Club in Cape Charles, Va. is definitely among his best. It is really part design and part Mother Nature, Mike Bailey writes. The natural backdrop of Chesapeake Bay and the landscape provided Nicklaus with a great canvas. You'll experience some pretty unforgettable golf holes and scenery.

Not only does the course share property with Old Dominion University, it is built on a landfill which juts into the Elizabeth River. Its neighbor to the south is the largest coal exporting operation in the nation. Needless to say, Lambert's Point is a one-of-a-kind experience. Playing to 2,789-yards, the course might sound suited only for beginners or curiosity-seekers. But its practice facilities are extensive, its fairways and greens are finely conditioned, and its views are dramatic.
