The Hollows Golf Club - Lake/Cottage
About
Hollows Golf Club boasts three unique nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. Conveniently, the greens fees are applicable all day, which gives you the opportunity to try out all three. The nines: Cottage, Lake, and Road, are varied enough to appeal to a wide range of skill levels. The Lake/Cottage combination features the most water of the three golf courses. The Lake nine wraps around a massive lake, the centerpiece of the 27-hole course. There are also a few small ponds that come into play on the front nine. The Cottage nine only has water on the third hole but this tough par 3 leaves a lasting impression. It is the Cottage's signature hole that not only features water but also an 8-foot deep bunker on the left.

Was great when Mitch was there.
I have an associate membership here but I wish I did not. Their online rules/cost of membership vs the pro shop rules/cost do not match. It is always frustrating to book and check in. We always arrive early for our tee time but it's a total waste because they are literally ALWAYS backed up. There are often 5-10 carts lined up at the first hole and there is often no one out there to help direct people or put them in order. With three 9 hole courses it is ridiculous to always be like this. Many times we are not even able to tee off at our tee time or we have to start on a different 9 hole course than everyone else because of some issue with booking as an associate member or because they are so backed up that we cannot find our place to even fit into the long line of carts. I will not be renewing my membership after my current one expires.
5-somes slowing play
Recently I’ve noticed one or more groups of 5 players playing together. That really slows the pace of play and causes a huge backup of players. Management needs to address this issue.
Great course
A great place to play. We've been playing for over a year here every Saturday and love it. The pro shop staff you couldn't ask for a better group of guys. Love this place!!
I love this course!
I love this course!! Andy the owner at this course is amazing! Andy and his staff are great! They are always there to take teetimes and check us in with a smile and a warm welcome! The golf pro shop is top notch and offers everything a golfer should need! Big huge compliments to Andy for all he has done to make this course what it is! Andy is amazing his customer service and relationships he has with all of his guests! This golf course is top notch and number one in my opinion in the entire state of Virginia! I love it here and I play here every chance I get! I live on a golf course which is very nice but I drive over 100 miles to play here!
Fun to play
I really like playing here, even though the speed of play can be rather slow at times. Mitch is a wonderful employee and he makes checking in a great experience. One thing that I’d like to see improved is the restaurant. Its hours seem to be quite irregular. Overall, this is a low-key, snob free place to hone one’s skills.
Lost item in cart - it was cleaned out
The course was fine, and pace was very good. it was rainy, but course drains well.
However, I left my GOGOGO Rangefinder in the cart at drop off. I noticed it at home and called the shop - not turned in. I drove back to check the cart - it had been cleaned up for the next day. Still, nothing turned in.
I get that I left it, but such "found" items when cleaning a cart are clearly LOST, and not yours just because you found it. It speaks to the level of staff working at this course
We appreciate the review. You rated us 3-stars which means there is room to improve on your recent experience at The Hollows Golf Club - Lake/Cottage. Let us know, in the comments, how and where you would like to see changes from the course. Thanks for the feedback!
Good course for the money
The ability to play 3 different 9 hole layouts is a nice option. Greens were rolling pretty well. We had a lot of rain a couple days prior and there was still a lot of standing water and soggy areas around the course. I’ll be back when it dries out.

The only complaint I have is something the course cannot control and I understand that. But my friend and I got paired with someone that quite frankly didn’t vibe with us. He was very unaware of how we played and very socially awkward. I’m not blaming the course but I wish there was a way to maybe next time just split us up in a pair when you four people and two of those people don’t know anyone.
Great course
Had a great time on this course. In good condition, fun course and great price.
Good value with GolfNow deal
Road nine is under repair so only option was Cottage/Lake. Layouts of these are good. Not too challenging, but good mix of doglegs and straight-aways and only a couple tee shots over water. The fairways and greens were in good shape, but the tee boxes and rough were not. You can pretty much drive the cart anywhere, which is good because cart paths are gravel and VERY dusty (my shoes and bag were covered in gray dust by end of round). Staff is friendly. It’s a good deal if you find a discounted rate, like the GolfNow one and a good course to add variety to a rotation, especially when the Road course is available again.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback regarding the layout of our Cottage/Lake course and the condition of the fairways and greens. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the state of the tee boxes and rough, as well as the dusty cart paths. We are glad to hear that our staff was friendly, and we hope you will visit us again in the future.
