Charlottesville Golf Communities - Spring Creek

Charlottesville golf Communities - Spring Creek

Spring Creek may have the most beautiful golf course of all of the Charlottesville golf communities.  In fact the Spring Creek golf course was awarded best new course by Golf Digest in 2009.  Today I was in Spring Creek looking at lots for some clients and I couldn't resist taking a couple of photos of the picture perfect course.

The wild flowers lining the cart path are particularly pretty.  Such a gorgeous setting in which to play golf.

If you are shopping for a home in a Charlottesville golf community, a must see is Spring Creek.  The neighborhood is located just off of I64 at Zion Crossroads about 12 miles east of Charlottesville.  In addition to the amazing golf course the rest of the family will enjoy the pool complex.  This gated community offers a variety of home options with several different builders and also townhomes as well as single family residences.  There are a number of resale homes on the market, but if you don't see your dream home among them, you may also purchase a "too be built" home from one of the builders working in the development. 

If you are searching for a golf course home, I will be happy to take you on a tour of all of the Charlottesville golf communities.
