We are just over a beautiful hour drive from the Baltimore/D.C. beltway. One half hour from Winchester and Leesburg, Virginia, as well as, Hagerstown and Frederick, Maryland. You will be able to drive here, play a memorable round of golf, and drive home in less time than it takes to play 18 holes on many of the public facilities in the metropolitan areas.
Four sets of tees on every hole offer golfing at its best for all skill levels. Each tee offers challenges across the 35 acres of lakes, ponds, and streams, which come into play on 11 of the 18 holes. Numerous bunkers and deceiving, undulating greens all amidst what nature and time have provided; scenery and natural beauty seldom found anywhere.
As you tour our site, you will see we are very proud of LOCUST HILL GOLF COURSE, and we know you will enjoy a great round of golf here. But, almost upstaging our beautiful and challenging golf course, is its environment. The Blue Ridge Mountains form a breathtaking backdrop to Locust Hill. These mountains are first experienced as majestic rolling hills while you approach Locust Hill from any direction. The Blue Ridge Mountains have a mystique all their own. On even the clearest of days you may notice a bluish-gray haze along their tops. Folklore has it, this is a residual effect from the Civil War.

I insisted on showcasing the colossal bag in the dead center of our tiny 600-square-foot studio condo, convinced it had more curb appeal than our meager second-hand furniture. My wife finally caved, but only on […]
