Golf in Hot Springs

Hot Springs is a Bath County community home of The Omni Homestead Resort, one of America's most celebrated mountain resort destinations, where the warm mineral springs that named the valley have attracted visitors since the colonial era. The Homestead's Old Course (1892) is one of the oldest golf courses in America, and The Cascades (1923, William Flynn) is consistently ranked among the country's finest mountain courses. The two Homestead courses make Hot Springs an essential pilgrimage for American golf history enthusiasts. The broader Virginia community's investment in recreational infrastructure — golf courses, parks, and outdoor amenities — reflects the quality-of-life standards that have made the state consistently one of America's most desirable places to live and work.
