Bayville Golf Club
Virginia Beach, Virginia
Director of Golf: John Wade, PGA
Renovation Completed: 2017
In 2017, Bayville Golf Club added a three-bay performance center and updated the short game area at its already venerable practice facility. The new offerings helped Bayville earn GRAA Top 50 Private Range honors, ranking it among the likes of Hazeltine, Valhalla and Philadelphia Cricket Club. The Performance Center allows for the use of advanced technology in instruction and clubfitting. Furthermore, a prior renovation allowed for the creation of a short game practice area at the South End of the practice range to offer a tremendous variety of practice options, including a second chipping green, rebuilt practice bunkers and new short-range target greens. According to the club, the 16-acre state-of-the-art practice facility is a golf perfectionist’s dream and a “game in itself.”
