About
Providence Golf Club in Richmond has a rich and unique history. The original location along the Pocoshock Creek closed in 1985 but the property and an adjacent parcel of land were then bought by a new development company. The additional land was used for six new holes while the original property now has longer and more spacious holes. The golf course then had another redesign in 2002 that was overseen by Virginia native Lester George, who is known for designing the highest ranked golf course in the state, Kinloch Golf Club. Providence G.C. wanders through a beautiful landscape of towering trees and wetlands. George utilized these natural features to create a number of risk-reward opportunities throughout the course. The golf course finishes with a risk-reward hole that is heavily guarded by both bunkers and a creek.

Good course
Very friendly people. Tees were well kept. Greens were fast and well kept. Beautiful course with some water as well. can’t wait to play here again. Water on the course. Played well too so that always helps!
Green conditions
Course has aerated greens give it a few more weeks and it’ll be beautiful
Greens
Very disappointed it wasn't posted that the greens were aerated. I completely understand it's that time of the year. I chose not to play other courses because their site posted this was happening. The greens were horrible.
Nice, conveniently located course
Played on a nice day just after winter weather. Despite being aerated same week, course was in very good condition (putting aside), particularly the fairways. A fun, interesting course with some good shot values and a fair number of risk/reward options. One of the better options in the Richmond area.
Nice challenging course to play
This is a nice course to play if you are looking for a challenge. It’s not long, we played from the blue tees, but it is challenging. I shoot in the 80s and I enjoy challenging greens. These greens are challenging and requires you to hit good puts for it to hold the line.
I would recommend this course for anyone. The staff is nice and always ready to help you.
Great shape for the season
Weather has been up and down, which is normal for Virginia, but the course was in really good shape all things considered. Pace of play was good. I was able to get a great deal on the course as well. One of my favorite courses in Richmond!
Great value great course
Well maintained course for money. Greens are in good shape. A lot if challenging holes. Best value to quality ratio. Can be slow at times.
Nice fairways, greens and fringe.
Fairways, greens and fringe were all in very good shape; the greens were a little slow on this day; probably had been watered well overnight. New carts ran smoothly most of the time., but the geo-fencing associated with where the carts will and won't run still needs some extensive tweaking, plus there should be better signage around the course as to where you can and cannot run the carts. There are some really quirky places where the carts just die and then start beeping. We hit a couple of places where we had to run in reverse for close to 100 yards to get back to an "operational" location.
Carty Battery died
I understand that they are about replace all of their golf carts, which is a good thing, since my cart died between holes 7 and 8. Fairways and greens are in good shape.; the rough is mostly tree roots and hard baked clay.
Tough course - well designed
Really enjoyed this course and the conditions and hole layouts were very nice.
Great layout and condition
First time playing at this course. Very well maintained and excellent pace and condition.
It is well worth the price you pay for it.
I have never seen big fans blowing air on some of the greens. This course had few big fans. I would definitely go back there again.
