Pleasant Valley Golf Club sits just south of Dulles airport, but the expansive layout, which is absent of homes, feels much more secluded. The parkland layout tumbles across a diverse landscape of rolling hills and grassy meadows covered with hardwood forests. There is plenty of diversity throughout the golf course with some holes that are bunker-less contrasting with the links holes that have Scottish-style bunkers. One of the most memorable holes is the par-5 fifth. After an uphill tee shot with a bunker on the right and a waste area on the left the second shot presents multiple choices. To the left you could take a risk with trees and a bunker but you could possibly be rewarded with a better angle for the third shot while the right side option will require a third shot over a large bunker to reach the green.

Nice public course

It’s a little pricey for a public course but I wouldn’t let it stop me or you from playing there again.

Lack of yardage markers at each tee and on each hole make it difficult for the no -member. There was not one place to get water other than the turn.

Greens and fairways were in good shape but bunkers were terrible.

Great track at a very good price

The greens had just been aerated so that’s the reason for that review. Overall I loved the layout. No houses. You’re out in the country. Good choice of tees from fairly easy to pretty difficult!

The staff were super friendly and there was hardly anyone around so we played in 3 hours even with cart path only!

I’d love to go back when the greens have recovered

Would play again

Greens in great condition, pretty fast. Fairways is good condition, not perfect. Tee boxes in decent condition, could be better. A tad expensive, but worth paying for it every once in a while. Friendly staff, good turkey club sandwich.

Coming together

Played 3 weeks ago so I came back to have another go at it. I last gave it 4 stars but this time I'm giving it 5. Pleasant Valley is a fun track, pace of play is perfect, staff members all great. Will definitely be back. If you havent played here you should. Hard course to break 90, requires good course management skills.

Fun challenge

Played last week here for the first time in forever. Got a nice deal and weather was warm for February standards. The staff was welcoming.

Course was cart path only which I like getting steps in so didn't bother me. Grass was a bit discolored and moist in areas, but golf is golf and its still winter. I really like the layout. Each hole has a design and challenges your skills.

Played with another two fellas, we never had to wait for the foursome ahead, and the four walkers behind never waited on us. The pace was perfect.

I'll definitely be back but hopefully they have deals during the season this year, $40-50 is my sweet spot, anything over $60 and I'd rather hit a $20 bucket at the local driving range.
