Sep 10, 2020 · Kinloch Golf Club is situated twelve miles north west of Richmond, Virginia and it’s a beautiful parkland course set in 274 acres with a 70-acre lake as its centerpiece. Opened in 2001, Lester George and Vinny Giles designed the course and it’s mandatory to use a caddie when playing Kinloch.
Kinloch is a private golf club with a business model that differs from most private clubs. Resident, non-resident, and national memberships are available on a single-member basis (meaning members of a family must all have individual memberships).

One unique feature at Kinloch is the 19th hole and no, it's not the clubhouse. It's a 188-yard par three, better known as the “settle-the-bet” one-shotter which is played over the lake to decide any ties after 18 holes.
The hole plays uphill with a fairway bunker to either side. You have to cross a stream that splits the fairway where this stream is more of a straight diagonal line going right to left. There are two bunkers on the right after the stream placed short of the green. There is a large bunker on the left. I like this hole.
The bunker on the right is sloped towards the green leading to a difficult sand shot. The green is fairly long and there is higher ground to its right and a steep fall-off to the left. It is one of the better greens with several ripples in it. This hole requires thought and execution for players of all abilities.
Kinloch Golf Club features a number of artificial streams. Water is pumped from the large lake that separates the two nines to the beginning of the stream and it then flows naturally back to the lake. When it’s time to remove the algae buildup, the water is turned off and the rocks are cleaned.

Kinloch is a very good golf course and certainly deser ving of being considered the best in the state of Virginia and among the top 100 modern courses in the USA . While I do not hold it in as quite a high regard as others, it is a very well-maintained course with a decent routing that incorporates a fair amount of land movement. For me, it is the second best course in Virginia (I have not played two of the other leading contenders), but I can see the merits of those who consider it the number one course.
