Gauntlet Golf Club

The Gauntlet Golf Club is a semi-public championship course near Fredericksburg, Virginia, designed by P.B. Dye, son of legendary architect Pete Dye. Opened in 1995, the par-72, 6,900-yard layout is set around Curtis Memorial Park's lake and features bentgrass greens, zoysia fairways, and the area's largest grass practice facility, alongside a Trackman4 indoor simulator for year-round play. The clubhouse's 19th Hole Bar and Grill offers indoor and veranda seating overlooking the course, pouring local craft beer alongside a full menu. For private celebrations, the newly renovated Twilight Room hosts up to 110 guests for weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, corporate gatherings, and other special occasions, backed by a fully stocked bar, a veranda with golf course views, and an on-site culinary team preparing every event from a fully equipped kitchen. With membership nearing 350 and instruction from PGA professionals Anthony Russell and Shawn O'Donnell, the club also welcomes non-members for daily green fees on both 9- and 18-hole rounds.
