The Woodford Club

Kentucky Golf Hall of Famer Buck Blankenship designed and built The Woodford Club in 1964 in Versailles, set amid the rolling pastures of thoroughbred horse country just outside Lexington. The club's owner Randy Clay and General Manager Bob Baldassari are the brainchilds behind the broader Kentucky Golf Trail, a stay-and-play travel experience that combines championship golf with Kentucky's signature draws: bourbon distillery tours and thoroughbred horse farms. The 18-hole par-72 layout rolls across the limestone-rich Bluegrass terrain with tree-lined corridors framing most fairways. Woodford County sits at the heart of both the Bourbon Trail and horse farm country, so the views from the course include working horse farms and nearby distilleries like Woodford Reserve. Peak green fee $55-85. Fits a Kentucky Bourbon Golf Trail trip as the flagship Woodford County stop, pair with nearby distillery tours and Keeneland/Churchill Downs visits for a full weekend itinerary.
