Origins

The Plantation Course was added to Kingsmill in 1985 and takes its identity from the earlier Richard Kingsmill plantation associated with the property.

Design Philosophy

Palmer and Seay provided generous driving areas but used woodland, ravines, water and contoured greens to create the principal strategic demands.

Today

The Plantation remains one of Kingsmill's resort golf courses, distinct from the members-only Woods Course.
