South Riding Golf Club is nestled in the gentle hills of northern Virginia, enjoying a landscape of hardwood forests and grassy meadows. The course offers a variety of challenges but the fairways are wide and player-friendly and the greens can be tough in spots but overall they offer some room for error. The layout requires both strategy and skill, it is definitely not a golf course where you will be able to just "grip and rip it." The course pinpoints your weaknesses but it is still a fair test. South Riding Golf Club's eighth hole is memorable for its difficulty but it's an interesting hole sine there are many ways to play it. At 351 yards, the hole is a short but intimidating dogleg left that will tempt you to go over the trees. The fairway is generous but the saddle-shaped green is flanked with bunkers.

A good challenge. OK conditions.

I've always liked the layout at South Riding,, pretty long, well-bunkered, mainly open fairways, well-guarded greens.

Going in, realize and accept that you're playing subdivision golf, as many holes are lined by houses or townhouses. However, they rarely are a distraction. Also, accept that this is not a course for walkers, as you wind around the subdivision a couple of times.

Conditions were not stellar...greens in good shape, bunkers just re-sanded (they were great!), shaggy, soft fairways recovering from summer, a mixed bag on fringes, tees and rough. Very soft overall, so limited carry.

Holes 12 and 13 present the biggest challenges, with some obscure challenges involving a meandering creek. No. 9 is tough, too. Some nice variety in the design, although the overall layout is pretty flat. Blue tees are plenty long, golds are really long.

I feel like there could be a few more yardage markers on course . The scorecard helped but lines on cart path are faded and 150 pole was not on every hole

Good round - poor range spacing

Good course - eNjoyed it - ranger was extremely rude when asked for help - and then made a point to embarrass me even more in front of others - No need for that type of behavior - was really turned off by it

Bad all around.

I played a mid day round on a Thursday. Pace of play was great because of the day and time. The course was awful. Cart path rough, fairways over run by crab grass to the point where a great drive is wasted by an approach shot that grabs your club. The greens were marked up terribly. Super disappointed with the course conditions. The staff was super friendly. The entire place was run but some young kids. But they were trained properly to be respectful and accommodating so props to them.
