Hermitage Country Club

Hermitage Country Club is a country club located in eastern Goochland County, in the Richmond, Virginia area. The club was founded in 1900 by Berkely Williams, making it the 4th oldest country club in Virginia.[1] The club hosted the PGA Championship in 1949, at the course that later became Henrico County's Belmont Golf Course. Sam Snead won his second PGA Championship that year with a 3&2 victory over Johnny Palmer in the final match. The club remains the only club from Virginia to have hosted a major championship. Hermitage has a large pool, 4 indoor & 4 outdoor tennis courts, 36 hole golf course, weight room, and two spectacular dining rooms.
