Pohick Bay Regional Park Golf Course in Lorton has been one of the area's most popular public courses since it opened in the early 1980s. Playing at Pohick Bay is like playing two golf courses in one, with a front nine that has long, tree-lined fairways and a hillier back nine that features a variety of doglegs and water holes. It is a definitely a shot-maker's course so be prepared to use some creativity and some thoughtful strategizing doesn’t hurt either. The constant up and down of the golf course provides uneven lies and a number of blind shots. The dramatic terrain also makes it a tough course to walk. Trees frame most of the holes, demanding accuracy but also providing a peaceful and secluded feel. Pohick Bay Regional Park Golf Course is popular amongst locals for being one of the most challenging and yet also one of the most affordable courses in the area.

It is not an easy course. As long as you tee off straight, you will be just fine

Challenging but fair.

Was impressed with conditions for this time of year. Definitely a course that you need to play a few times to learn the nuances of the course. Try not to get out of position or it will cost you.

Excellent Value

Challenging layout and a premium of golf shots and not length. Course was soggy due to the heavy rains. Course is usually in good shape and is great value.

Fun, would Play Again

Course was wet and muddy, but greens rolled great and was a fun/challenging track. Lots of elevation changes and need for precise shots off tee and approaching greens.

Course

I felt the course was a bit gimmicky. Lots of 90 degree doglegs. There is significant up and down and edge rolls off drastically. All in all a reasonable course requiring precision

Fantastic Muni

Course is in good condition. Not a championship course but fun and scenic. Pace of play is always a tad behind where it should be but not terrible for a muni course. I would recommend this course 10/10 times for the value.

Solid Course, a bit pricey

Had a great day, pace of play was Fantastic. The course is in good, not great shape. And the back nine continues to be cart path only. Probably a little overpriced, but it's an otherwise nice, fair, and solid track.
