Golf in Hampton

Hampton is one of Virginia's original independent cities, the oldest continuously occupied English-speaking settlement in America, founded in 1610 on the Hampton Roads harbor at the confluence of the James River and the Chesapeake Bay. The city's extraordinary historical depth and its contemporary identity anchored by Langley Air Force Base and NASA Langley Research Center — where American aerospace history was made — create a community spanning millennia of human activity. Peninsula Golf Club and The Woodlands serve Hampton's substantial recreational golf market. The community's recreational golf culture connects residents to the natural landscape that defines Virginia's most compelling quality-of-life asset, the combination of accessible beauty and historical significance that distinguishes the Commonwealth from any other American state.
