The Highland Course at Primland Rises to No. 28 in Golf Digest’s “America’s 100 Greatest” List
MEADOWS OF DAN, VIRGINIA – The numbers are in from Golf Digest course raters, and The Highland Course at Primland, Auberge Resorts Collection, has climbed to No. 28 in the esteemed publication’s biennial compilation – “America’s 100 Greatest of Public Courses, 2021-2022.”
Located within the luxury resort’s 12,000 pristine Blue Ridge Mountains in SW Virginia near the North Carolina Border, The Highland Course is revered for its spectacular conditions, scintillating views and a Donald Steel-designed layout that challenges golfers of all levels. Unfurling amid the lush, serene, vast and pristine landscape, the course is the highest-ranked Virginia layout in the newly released list and the only one from the Commonwealth to land in the top 30.
To derive this list of remarkable courses, hundreds of Golf Digest panelists submit detailed reviews for thousands of courses, rating them in seven categories: shot values, design variety, memorability, aesthetics, resistance to scoring, conditioning and ambience.
“Our guests frequently rave about the long-range vistas, wonderful course layout, and magnificent playing conditions,” said Brian Alley, PGA, Primland’s Director of Golf and Recreation. “This distinction from Golf Digest’s expert course panelists is a wonderful honor and reinforces our guests’ appraisal of The Highland Course.”
