Royal New Kent Golf Club

Royal New Kent Golf Club, one of the few designs by the late Mike Strantz, stands out in Virginia’s Tidewater region. This 18-hole, par-72 layout stretches about 7,440 yards and delivers a seamless blend of strategy and spectacle. Key features include 120 bunkers, native grasses, and rolling fairways that wind toward greens often hidden behind grassy knolls, demanding imagination and precision. Every hole is distinct, with blind tees and generous landing areas that keep play fair even as the course never feels predictable. The seaside-links influence echoes in the sandy textures, undulating greens, and a design nod to Ballybunion and Royal County Down. Royal New Kent rewards golfers who shape shots and read contours, offering memorable risk–reward opportunities and plenty of birdie chances. Top-tier practice facilities—driving range, short-game area, and putting green—prepare you for the round, while the Strantz Pub and well-stocked shop elevate the clubhouse experience.
