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.

Great layout; decent shape

Always love playing this course as layout is fantastic with great variety of holes.

Some fairways had burned out spots but so much better than a couple years ago. Look forward to playing here more often as the conditions improve. .

Pleasant Vkue

Greens and fairways in pretty good shape. Rough was not however. Many weeds and grass was sparse .

Layout was very good; challenging which explains the higher slope rating than what most would expect of a public course.

Not a comfortable place to play

I have never been to a course where I felt so rushed. We finished the first 9 under 2 hours and finished all 18 in just under 4 hours but yet the marshals followed us on several holes. It is very frustrating and not pleasant to be followed like that. It messes up your game and makes it very unenjoyable. I will not be playing at this course anymore.

Solid track, good conditions, bunkers could be better.

Aeration happened a few days ago so the greens are a bit bumpy but they roll well and i'm looking forward to my next round. A few tee boxes were a bit rough & most bunkers were concrete sand, but otherwise the course was in great shape.

Lovely course

My favorite early morning weekday walk. Challenging course, with an interesting layout. Pace can get slow at times but feel like that's everywhere nowadays

Bunkers could use a little work right now. and would love to get some water jugs put out on a few holes

As someone who primarily walks it would be nice to not pay the full price that includes a cart fee but that's not an option.

Bunkers

The greens had just been punched & top dressed the day before but they were still playable enough considering. What wasn’t acceptable were the sand traps all around the course. Looked like they hadn’t been deep raked for months & were hard as cement. Some bunkers didn’t even have a rake in them.

Wonderful!

Unfortunately, the greens were aerated the day before I played…likely why the price was such a hot deal ;) Nonetheless, the course is in great shape, carts are tip top, and the beer offerings fantastic. Lovely staff as well. Highly recommend!

Expensive and lacking basic amenities

I’ve played pleasant valley a few times in the past. Was shocked to see a round now is $120 during peak times. For an average neighborhood course that is super expensive (as is the sister south riding course).

We played early afternoon is it was a hot day at over 100 degrees. We passed the drinks cart on the first hole, and then there was absolutely no water/drinks available for the rest of the round. The cart lady did not come by at all and there were no water coolers at any of the holes. This was unacceptable given the high cost of the round and not having Basic amenities available. Plus it was cart part only so there was a lot of walking on a super hot day.

Course conditions were fine- green la were in great shape but fairways seemed like they were aerated so had many areas that were disturbed.
