Golf in Winchester

Winchester is an independent city in the northern Shenandoah Valley that changed hands seventy-two times during the Civil War — more than any other city in America — serving as a strategic crossroads where Stonewall Jackson's Valley Campaign and Sheridan's subsequent campaigns repeatedly contested control of the valley's gateway. The city's extraordinary Civil War heritage and its contemporary role as the Shenandoah Valley's northern commercial hub create a community of historical depth and economic vitality. Two golf facilities serve the Winchester community. Golf has served this Virginia community as a gathering place for the professional, agricultural, and working families who sustain the Commonwealth's civic life across the economic cycles that have alternately challenged and strengthened every corner of the state.
