Thinking About Living in The Federal Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands The Federal Club and the surrounding Richmond golf market.
The Federal Club opened in 2007 in Glen Allen, Henrico County, designed by Arnold Palmer, Ed Seay, and Harrison Minchew -- a 7,073-yard, par-72 bentgrass course. The club's own site publishes membership tiers (Full Golf, Sports, Social, Junior Executive, Family) rather than a public green-fee schedule, and a specialist green-fee aggregator independently tags the facility 'members-only, private course.'
The club's profile is about to rise sharply: starting in 2026, The Federal Club will host the PGA TOUR's Korn Ferry Tour Championship (October 5-11), the season-ending event where the top 20 players on the Korn Ferry Tour points list earn PGA TOUR cards for the following season. The $1.5 million event, run in partnership with Henrico County and Virginia's economic development and tourism authorities, is a genuine, current PGA TOUR-affiliated tournament -- a notable credential for a club whose access model otherwise reads as private/membership-based.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
The Federal Club's own membership page lists five membership categories with initiation fees and dues, not a public tee-sheet purchase option, and a specialist directory independently confirms members-only status. One older, lower-tier aggregator snippet describing $79-99 public green fees could not be corroborated and may reflect stale or conflated information -- flagged rather than resolved with full confidence. There is no confirmed residential development built specifically around The Federal Club; it reads as a standalone private club serving the broader Glen Allen area rather than anchoring one named community.
