Cypress Creek Golfers' Club

Cypress Creek Golfers' Club offers a refined yet approachable golfing experience along the tranquil waterways of Smithfield, VA. This 18-hole layout combines thoughtful design elements with a natural setting where water and wetlands influence several holes, especially on the back nine. The course’s parkland-style routing weaves through open fairways and subtle elevation shifts, inviting players of varied skill levels to engage with strategy and shot-making without overwhelming difficulty.

Water features and marshy landscapes frame a number of holes, adding both aesthetic appeal and a steady test to golfers’ accuracy off the tee and on approaches. A standout stretch—holes 15 and 16—requires precise play around narrow corridors bordered by reeds and the winding river, rewarding cautious shot placement while showcasing some of the course’s most scenic vistas. The fairways are generous, giving mid to high handicappers space to maneuver, while the greens provide a medium challenge with moderate undulations and a turf quality that, while occasionally healing, feels lush and receptive.

Walking is encouraged here, with mostly flat, well-maintained tee boxes and fairways that absorb footsteps comfortably; a quality set of golf shoes is a good idea for maintaining traction near wetland edges. Golf carts are available but the layout and conditions make a pedestrian round enjoyable, particularly on calm days when the river reflects the sky’s shifting light.

Off the course, Cypress Creek’s clubhouse offers a welcoming atmosphere with a full-service bar and restaurant, favored for casual meals and socializing post-round. The practice facilities, including a driving range with real turf mats, support warm-ups and skill honing effectively. Friendly staff and well-kept grounds illustrate steady attention to detail, elevating the overall experience beyond the fairways.

Ideal for members seeking a peaceful, challenging but fair test, and visitors who appreciate golf connected to water and natural surroundings, Cypress Creek Golfers' Club balances playability with captivating scenery. Those planning a visit will find a course on the upswing, maintained with care and supported by a team eager to help golfers make the most of their rounds.
