About Ford's Colony Country Club - Blue Heron

Ford's Colony Country Club - Blue Heron course in Williamsburg, Virginia is one of three Dan Maples-designed layouts within the prestigious Ford's Colony residential community. The Blue Heron course takes its name from the great blue herons that frequent the wetlands woven throughout the layout, creating a serene natural backdrop for every round. Ford's Colony's private club atmosphere extends to its public tee times, offering visiting golfers a genuinely upscale experience with manicured conditions, attentive service, and the scenic Virginia Tidewater landscape. The routing features challenging par threes over water, risk-reward par fives, and demanding par fours through mature hardwood corridors. Ford's Colony's three courses — Blue Heron, Blackheath, and Marsh Hawk — collectively make it one of Williamsburg's premier golf destinations.

History

Ford's Colony was developed in the 1980s as Williamsburg's premier planned residential golf community, with Dan Maples brought in to design multiple courses on the property. The Blue Heron course reflects Maples' characteristic approach of routing layouts around natural water features and native habitat. Ford's Colony has grown into one of the Mid-Atlantic's most respected golf and residential communities, drawing comparisons to Pinehurst in its commitment to golf excellence.
