Our story

Welcome to Sycamore Creek

Two friends got together and said, “Hey, want to start a golf course?” In doing so, John Richi and Robert Pratt have created one of Central Virginia’s greatest golf values.

The rolling fairways, strategically placed bunkers, natural wetlands and undulating putting surfaces make Sycamore Creek Golf Course a delightful challenge for players of all ability. The course is a signature Michael Hurdzan design, with no two holes the same. Pinpoint shot-making and golf course management skills are a must to master this course. Verdant fairways, manageable roughs, manicured greens and glistening bunkers are the norm, not the exception.

“We encourage the use of multiple tees, wide landing zones, offset angles of play and forgiveness or containment for errant shots of the less skilled, but a demanding array of risk and reward shot values for competitive golfers. We design greens which are sensitive to the approach shots of all golfers, which drain well and make skillful putting a reasonable part of the game.”Dr. Michael Hurdzan, course architect
