The Hollows Golf Club - Lake/Road
Rating Snapshot
About
Hollows Golf Club is situated in historic Hanover County, birthplace of Patrick Henry. The club boasts 27 holes of championship golf that are considered the best value in the area since the greens fess are good for the whole day, allowing you to try every hole if you wanted to. The holes are divided into three nines: Cottage, Lake, and Road, that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The unique layouts of all three offer enough variety to appeal to players of all skill levels. The Lake/Road combination naturally features plenty of water on the front nine. The Lake nine is routed around a large lake as well as a few small ponds. The back nine, Road, is the longest of the three nines, but only by about 100 yards. There is no water but there are some tricky doglegs and strategically placed bunkers.

The Hollows
We had a good time playing the course, the greens need a little work and the bunkers where hard as rocks. We still enjoyed ourselves and will return again.
Great course
We play at the Hollows every Saturday. Course is in good condition, greens could be better if golfers would fix their divots. Other than that great place to play.
Conditions Improving
My wife and I had a pleasant Sunday afternoon round and completed play in less than 4 four hours. Management continues to rehabilitate fairways on the "Road" nine, with the first hole under work and playing as a temporary 80-yard par 3. Recent holes that have been worked on have very nice Bermuda fairways. Some fairways on the Cottage nine are uneven and a bit rough. The greens are tricky on some holes with significant slope and multiple levels, but the ball rolls consistently. The rough will penalize you with crabgrass. It's a decent option that I play once or twice a year.
Nice option if local
I live about 45 minutes away from Hunting Hawk and have played there in many tournaments. I have enjoyed my time and the course has a nice layout. Due to drive I would not visit here often but if chance arises I would visit for another round.
Hollows Aug ‘22
Staff is great. Laid back atmosphere. Greens in good shape and roll true but slow. Fairways are narrow on a couple holes but in decent shape. Due to type of grass the fairways tend to get thin in spots. Pace was slow on a hot Sunday but is usually better. Not in a subdivision, which is a nice plus.
Great public course for a public price
The Hollows is one of my favorite golf courses in the area. It has a good layout paired with good maintenance. The only bad thing you could say about this course is the poor drainage in some places,, which they’re well aware of. I played the entire round only losing one ball, which somehow got lost in the rough on Cottage #9 left side of the fairway. If you found my AVX be nice to it. With how short the course is it’s a great place to go low, broke 80 for the first time here and won’t stop coming back anytime soon!
great course for the price
love this course, all 27 holes play well, pace is slow because it is so popular and always busy
The course is very player friendly
Played my 1st time on 7/4/2022. Course and greens in very good condition. Shot 4 over par. Not for my 1st rnd. Staff was friendly and the pace of play was excellent. I will be returning. Fell in love with the course.
Nice place to go
I played on a very hot Wednesday. Only a few others choose to play that afternoon. There are 3 nine hole courses. I played Cottage first and it is in need of some work and would rate it 2 stars. The greens are bent grass and nice. I then played the Road Nine. Much nicer with better fairways and tees. I would rate this a 4 star nine. The cart paths are gravel this dust is an issue. The golf cart was quite worn but got me around just fine. Nice value for the money and drive from Richmond.
Decent course. Fair price.
Greens are in pretty good shape. Pace of play was great. Course layout was easy to follow. Decent little track for $30. But you probably won’t find yourself desiring to come back.
