Colonial Williamsburg Celebrates Golden Horseshoe Golf Club’s 50th Anniversary with Attractive, Affordable Family Offer



 
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (March 19, 2013) Colonial Williamsburg’s Golden Horseshoe Golf Club has long prided itself on being among the most family friendly golf facilities in the country, and to commemorate the Gold Course’s 50th anniversary the history-rich destination is introducing a Kids Stay, Play and Eat Free offer.
Just as Golden Horseshoe Golf Club has helped bring families together on the golf course, Colonial Williamsburg engages children of all ages in the stories of America’s past. Each day – from sun-up until after dark – family programs are available that allow younger guests to step back into the past and be swept up in the daily life of a bustling 18th-century city.
Available June 14 – August 29, 2013, the Kids Stay, Play and Eat Free offer includes:
  • Minimum three nights’ stay in one of two Colonial Williamsburg hotels (starting from $78/adult/night at the Williamsburg Woodlands Hotel and Suites; starting from $90/adult/night at the Williamsburg Lodge
  • Length-of-stay admission to Colonial Williamsburg Historic Area
  • Up to four children (12 and under) accompanied by a paying adult receive free breakfast and dinner daily and can play golf and tennis for free, visit the Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg, experience the Revolutionary City and play the interactive text-message-based spy game RevQuest: The Black Chambers. 
The award-winning Gold Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr., opened in 1963 and plays to 6,817 yards from the championship tees.  The layout’s four heralded par-3 holes – the 3rd, 7th, 12th and 16th – prompted one golf scribe to write, “If there is a stronger set of par-3s than those on the Gold Course, it’s not on this planet.”
Additional golf experiences include Golden Horseshoe’s Green Course, designed by Rees Jones, and the nine-hole Spotswood, perfect for family golf outings.  Playing to 1,865-yards, the par-31 course includes one 470-yard par 5, two par 4s of 260 and 325 yards, and six par 3s ranging from 90 to 215 yards.

ARNOLD PALMER’S BAY HILL CLUB & LODGE ANNOUNCES 2013 GOLF PACKAGE TO MAKE BUCKET LIST DREAMS COME TRUE

BH_4color-hz



If playing the famous Bay Hill golf course at Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club & Lodge has always been on your bucket list, 2013 is the year to make it happen, and you won’t need a bucket of money to realize your dream.  Playing where the PGA TOUR plays just got a little easier with the 2013 Bay Hill Bucket List Golf Package which includes a comfortable lodge guest room, full breakfast, choice of one round of championship golf or a soothing spa treatment.  Guests will also receive the trademark umbrella logo pin which is the symbol of the Palmer brand around the world and a special keepsake gift upon check-in.  The Bucket List Package is offered from $171-263 per person, per night based on double occupancy (pricing varies with seasonality), making it surprisingly affordable to plan your trip to this legendary venue that tops so many bucket lists for both the avid and weekend golfer.  Reservations can be made by calling (888) 422-9445 or visiting www.BayHill.com.  (Applicable taxes not included.)

The history of Bay Hill and this charming golf club is steeped in tradition.  The highly regarded golf course was built in 1961, with breathtaking views that sweep across 270 acres along the shores of the Butler Chain of Lakes.  The property later became a favorite of legendary golfer Arnold Palmer after he competed in an exhibition match with Jack Nicklaus and Don Cherry on the then unknown course in 1965.  On that day Palmer fell in love with Bay Hill and began the quest to make it his own.  By 1970, that dream was a reality and Bay Hill has been the winter home of the Palmer family ever since.  In 1979 Mr. Palmer successfully created a tournament that became an official PGA TOUR stop, attracting some of the strongest fields of the season, now called the Arnold Palmer Invitational Presented by MasterCard which takes place March 18-24, 2013.   Just like Arnold Palmer himself, Bay Hill is very charismatic and inviting, and for those that love the traditions of the game, Bay Hill is the perfect Bucket List venue.  The Lodge features 70 rooms, a full service Spa and Fitness Center, and outstanding cuisine in 3 restaurants. Click here for the complete History of Bay Hill.     

Located just minutes from downtown Orlando and area attractions, Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Club & Lodge is the site of the annual Arnold Palmer Invitational Presented by MasterCard golf tournament.  The 70-room property features 27-holes of golf, the Arnold Palmer Golf Academy, tennis on four Har-tru and two DecoTurf courts, a full service spa and salon, fitness center, a heated Jr. Olympic-size pool, three dining locations, 3 lounges, and 9,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space.  For reservations or membership information, call (888) 422-9445 or (407) 876-2429.
