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.

Course was in maintenace and some wholes were "relocated" in the middle of the fairway, which you may guess, there was no green at all. The same for some tees. I was upset that there was no info about it and we were running up and down to confirm where was the flag

Hard but nice course

Course plays very long. Usually play from whites but that was a tough challenge here. Heavy elevation changes throughout course. Driver has to be top notch to score well
