Caves Valley Golf Club is a member-owned, not-for-profit corporation in Owings Mills, Maryland—a suburb northwest of Baltimore. The Tom Fazio designed golf course opened 35 years ago in 1991, and is known for its fast greens, rolling fairways, and water hazards. The club and course span 962 acres of rolling hills, pastures, woods, and wetlands. The property features 18 holes of golf, a practice facility, clubhouse and 49 overnight rooms spread among the clubhouse and seven on-site golf cottages.

Caves Valley was rated as 47th among America's best modern courses by Golfweek magazine in 1997. Caves Valley achieved its highest Golf Digest ranking in 2015-2016 when it reached 132nd in the USA. The course has consistently ranked as one of the top courses in the State and is currently 3rd, according to Golf Digest.
