From the moment you enter the front gate of Caves Valley Golf Club until you leave, you will enjoy an experience their Members and guests treasure, expect, and find so unique to this special place. Over time, they have come to call it, informally, the "Caves Valley Experience." But this time, not only will you and a guest have an incredible golf outing, but you will also be joined by a top Washington Capitals player from the Washington Capitals Hockey team!

More about the Caves Valley Golf Course:


Caves Valley Golf Club is a private, Member-owned Club, with a focus on business entertaining, located within a thirty-five minute drive of Baltimore's Inner Harbor and the Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.


The Course and Facilities:


Nine hundred sixty-two acres of rolling hills, pastures, woods, and wetlands, situated amid the natural beauty of Maryland's estate and hunt country, form a spectacular setting. The course features 18 holes, each uniquely fashioned to suit the natural environment. On site is also a comprehensive state-of-the-art Performance Center which includes multiple practice ranges with sand bunkers, chipping greens, and putting greens.


To compare the present Caves Valley against that which was originally built in the early 1990s is to recognize how much Tom Fazio has felt obligated to adjust his courses to today's club and ball technology. Back in 1991, the opening hole was a dogleg-left with a trap at the turn. Today it has four bunkers framing the landing area. The par-5 third had just two "buffer bunkers" along a lake to the right to stop high-handicap slices from landing in the drink. Those buffers are still there, but so too are three enormous bunkers down the left, stretching over 300 yards from the back tee. And so it is all the way around Caves Valley. There are now target bunkers mainly in play for big hitters and frontal bunkers at several greens to force pin-seekers to throw it in the air. Caves Valley is a players' club, and one remains a player only by being constantly challenged during a round.

This outing takes place on a mutually agreed upon date and will be joined by club member David Kelly, Jr. and a player from the Capitals hockey team.
