Kinloch Golf Club is a golf club in Manakin-Sabot, Virginia. The club was selected as Golf Digest's "Best New Course" in 2001, the year it opened, and has been on numerous "best of" lists in its existence.[1]

Kinloch is a private golf club with a business model that differs from most private clubs. Resident, non-resident, and national memberships are available on a single-member basis (meaning members of a family must all have individual memberships).[2]

The golf course was designed by golf course architect Lester George and U.S. Amateur Champion, Marvin "Vinny" Giles.[2]

The practice facility at Kinloch has been used as an example of the golf industry's changing approach to teaching and practice.[3]

Kinloch Golf Club hosted the 2011 U.S. Senior Amateur and the 2024 U.S. Mid-Amateur.[4][5]

In 2025, Kinloch was ranked #1 in the state by Golf Digest.[6][7]
