Pohick Bay Golf Course

About
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.

Great course
Hills are challenging but a good course to play. Good value

We appreciate the rating, even if it means we could have done better. If you’d like to share any details about your experience, we are always looking for ways to improve.
Great Track with a variety of holes
Pohick GC has made great strides to improve on a nice design. Tee boxes have been reshaped and new back tees were added to several holes.
I already enjoy this course as there are elevation changes. You cannot just think Driver off the tee box. Water comes into play on several holes. There is opportunity for scoring and messing up. Go and play!

David, thank you for your positive review of Pohick Bay GC! We're glad to hear you appreciate the improvements we've made to the course and the challenges it presents. We strive to provide an enjoyable experience for all of our guests and we're thrilled to hear you had a great time.
Pace of Play 👎🏽
Pace of play was terrible. I decided to get a rain check for my 2nd 9 due to it being a 2.5+ hour 9 hole round. The starter was less than pleasant lol.

Thank you for your feedback. We take your opinion seriously, and are working everyday to improve the customer experience.

We’re thrilled to see you had a positive experience, hoangnguyen62. If there are any details you’d like to share about what we are doing well, we’d love to learn more!
Great public course!
We went here for the first time and thought the course was great! The grass was wet and muddy- cart path only- because we've had so much rain. But it is a really lovely course with lots of trees on either side. We found it a little challenging playing it for the first time and not seeing where our shots needed to be. It's quite hilly and I would frankly never walk it. Will definitely go back. We got it on a TEE OFF deal so it was well worth the $43.

Hi there u580119817, thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our course despite the wet conditions. Your feedback about the layout and challenging nature of the course is greatly appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

It’s been awhile, glad I came back
Haven’t played here in several years. Course condition is fantastic. Great tee boxes- level and not covered with divots. Greens could’ve been mowed tighter to speed them up, but otherwise we’re in great condition.

Thank you so much for your review. We value your feedback, and hope to see you back soon.
Greens were in really nice shape. Putts broke less than anticipated.
