Colonial Hills is on the west side of Lynchburg in Forest off US 221 on a compact tract of land without homes or development.

It's a classic, parkland layout in a scenic setting with views the Peaks of Otter and the Blue Ridge Mountains through the course. You might get away with spraying the ball off the tee here, but will likely be in another fairway or behind a tree, yet it's mostly recoverable. The layout is straightforward with several slight doglegs, four water hazards, and 24 sand bunkers generally positioned around the modest greens. It's not all that long at 6,318 yards from the tips, par 71, 70.0/121, with two shorter tees.
