Golf

Schoolhouse Nine, the county’s first and only golf course, is located next to the Sperryville Schoolhouse complex, where U.S. routes 211 and 522 meet. The gently rolling nine-hole course is deceptively challenging and, especially in wildflower season, quite beautiful. The unique design features nine challenging par-3 holes, ranging in length from 85-171 yards. The course meanders by the Thornton River and the historic ruins of the original Smoot Tannery. The course is open 8 a.m. till dark daily; rounds start and end at the adjacent Black Twig.
