“Mattaponi (pronounced matta-pone-aye) Springs” describes the many natural freshwater springs throughout the property that feed into the MattaponiRiver and provide clean, naturally-filtered water for the Mattaponi Indians who traditionally lived and hunted in this area. The springs, streams and creeks on the property support an abundant wildlife population that provides the perfect backdrop of tranquility in a serene golf setting.
Mattaponi offers all of the amenities found at exclusive private membership facilities in a relaxed atmosphere with a focus on total guest service. The championship golf course, combined with a five acre practice facility, up-scale casual grill and 200 seat conference center all blend into a perfect setting for any golfer’s needs. The absence of home sites and traffic provides a refreshing escape.
The par 72 course maintains a flair for the dramatic. The first East Coast design by Bob Lohmann (designer of the Merit Club—host site of the 2000 U.S. Women’s Open), the perched tee boxes and plunging fairways challenge golfers on multiple holes. Steep banks and rolling hills abound. While such elements appear intimidating, lush zoysia fairways, bermuda rough, and true and quick bentgrass greens combined with a multiple array of teeing areas allow golfers of all levels to enjoy Mattaponi .
At Mattaponi Springs Golf Club, the beauty lies in its simplicity. There are no homes, no roads to cross and no gimmicks. You will not find imitations of other golf courses, but 18 original and distinctive holes that complement the unique terrain. Designed for the pure golf enthusiast, Mattaponi Springs blends nature and a masterful design to provide all golfers the total golf experience.
