Course Overview
Cypress Creek Golfers' Club in Smithfield, Virginia, offers an engaging 18-hole layout that balances challenge with accessibility across every hole. This public course features a thoughtfully crafted design that skillfully weaves through the natural riverside terrain, presenting players with scenic views of the adjacent creek and marshlands that frame the back nine. The setting is unpretentious yet striking, with a layout that demands strategic shot-making without overwhelming less experienced golfers.
The course is broadly appealing, with well-maintained fairways and plush greens that provide a true roll. Notably, the tee boxes sit on flat, groomed platforms that promote consistency off the tee, and the bunkers are filled with soft, fluffy sand requiring precise ball placement to avoid difficult lies. Strategic hazards come into play on several holes, particularly around holes 15 and 16, which challenge golfers with water and reeds, inviting both caution and creativity.
Playability is a key feature here, with the course offering a solid test for mid to low handicaps, while still welcoming players who are developing their skills. Seasonal maintenance is ongoing, and while a few greens occasionally show signs of repair, the overall conditions remain strong. Walking the course is encouraged and practical, thanks to a mostly gentle terrain that pairs well with comfortable footwear.
The facility supports the experience with a well-regarded bar and restaurant where players can relax post-round, alongside a pro shop staffed by helpful personnel. A turf driving range enhances pre-round preparation, providing a realistic surface for warming up. The current management has invested in improving the property, showing clear attention to both customer service and course conditions.
For golfers seeking a riverside course that combines inviting scenery with a layout designed for steady improvement and enjoyment, Cypress Creek Golfers' Club stands out. Whether aiming for strategy on tricky coastal holes or looking to unwind in a friendly atmosphere, this course offers a balanced and refreshing Virginia golf outing.
Course Highlights
The course's standout elements include holes 15 and 16, which wind alongside the creek and marsh reeds, incorporating water hazards that demand precision and present impactful visual drama.

A lot is going right at this course. A few things would make this course five stars in my opinion…Mostly revolving around the greens. Pros: Nice driving range layout. Love hitting off real turf. Great people and awesome bar and restaurant. Fun layout. #15, 16 are standouts to me, playing around the river and reeds. Very scenic. Tee boxes are all flat and well groomed. Nice fairways and the greens are plush. Bunker sand is nice and fluffy. Cons: A few (2 or 3) greens are healing up in certain parts of the green. Hoping next year they’ll look better. People aren’t fixing their pitch marks on the green . It’s crazy how many there are. I try to fix 3 or 4 every time. It’s a basic golf thing, please, just do it. Rake your footprints and please, OMG. Again, another basic golf thing. If you don’t take 30 seconds to rake the bunker, I hope your ball lands in a big footprint. Get some new driving range balls. Geese are pecking at some of the greens hard. Not much you can do there but something to note. Overall, great course and I would highly recommend it. Talking to folks who have been around a while, the course/restaurant/pro shop are all on the upswing with new management/owners and superintendent. Looking forward to some great rounds here in the coming years. I’ll be getting a membership here next summer.

The course is in great shape, especially the greens. The greens are a good challenge but not so impossible it’s frustrating. The new owners are very kind and are running things right! Not overcrowded either like some courses that put tee times too close together.
