Hobbs Hole Golf Course

This is one of my favorite courses to play. The course was in excellent playing condition and except for one teeing area there were virtually no bare spots on the entire course. I like the variety of difficulty for some of the holes especially the par 5 #8. The rough was touch as it should be but not as brutal as some courses I have played recently. The green speed was above average and the staff extremely friendly. I have played there numerous times and fully intend on returning and hopefully soon.

First time there. Not hilly, gentle roll to the well kept fairways. Though a little on the slow side the greens are in excellent condition. Many tee choices for all player capabilities. Some traps have standing water in them front recent rains and may need additional sand.

Played Hobbs Hole for the first time on a perfect summer day. The twilight rates were unbelievably good. The course is very pretty and in great shape. I live outside the Richmond, VA area with many courses to choose from but Hobbs Hole is my new favorite!

Course is in good shape always love playing hobbs hole when I'm down that way.

Don’t believe on phone or on line pricing. Was told juniors were free but would pay for cart. Understandable. Played last week for that pricing after specifically asking on the phone. Went today to be told no junior rates and my 15 yo son would have to pay regular adult fee. I’m sure many 15 yo players can afford that. After telling me no junior rate, he said juniors were 14 and under. Wow. Which is it. Too expensive for a bobumpkin course in the middle of nowhere. Hopefully other area courses care about kids becoming involved. Disappointing.@$80.00 for a man and kid on a Thursday.

Staff is very friendly in pro shop and grill room. Nice grill room with good food and beverages. Greens were in good shape. Some of the tee boxes and sand traps needed work. Fairways are starting to thicken up. Had a bad winter and cold spring. Taking a while for Bermuda and Zoysia fairways to come in.

I went as a single on a Thursday late morning. On the putting green, two members invited me to play with them and I found friendliness of that sort typical of the members and staff.

I played from the blues about 6200 yards. Not a lot of trouble in the fairways but it was very windy with gusts in the '20's.

Fairways need work. Hadn't filled in, lots of sparceness. Rolled the ball a lot.. Greens rolled true but bumpy. They were large enough to make a difference in club selection.

Didn't see a lot of maintenance going on and the course needs some after the rough winter we had.

The drive out is beautiful. Pastoral with lots of farmland and a tree-lined parkway. Tappahannock, is near the end of the Rappahannock River before it empties into the Chesapeake Bay. A sleepy village at this time of year but you can tell its busy in summer ... lots of shops. (or shoppes).

Overall sense of the course... cheap to play, fun-ish layout, in decline.

One of my favorite courses to play, always in good shape for the most part, can be a forgiven and unforgiving course at times.

Been playing this course for 20 years. The pro is the best and the rest of the staff is great! Very family friendly course.

The Greens are in fantastic shape but waiting for some warm weather for the dormant fairways to come back in.

The sand bunkers (all) are in desperate need of attention. Many of them have a serious drainage problem (none) and all are in desperate need of real sand.. There is standing water for several days in some for several days and when the water is pumped out there is mud. It may be beneficial if some of the bunkers were converted to grass bunkers rather than sand.

A hard packed bunker is vary difficult to hit a ball out.

I am posting this as a member of Hobb Hole Golf Course.

The course is in great shape, but it can be a little

windy since they are so near to the river. I play

it as often as I can.

Sure would be nice if there was some real sand in the bunkers.

The greens are in excellent condition!.

A great price of $23 in November. Course was in good condition. Nice job in minimizing leaf fall problems, clear fairways and rough areas. Greens were surprisingly fast for this time of year. Well maintained course. We’ll return soon!

I have to say that Troy is one of the best and nicest Golf Pro's I have ever had the privilege of meeting. This man goes out of his way to make sure everyone is greeted and well taken care of. I have to travel an hour to get to this course and will continue to do so. The course is challenging as well as rewarding, Always a pleasure.

Do not miss their Grounds Keeper Revenge Tournament.

The greens are in fantastic condition but the fairways have gone dormant for the winter.

We play here several times a year. We enjoy the course and the layout. Wonderful staff and great little restaurant. A few holes could use a makeover but all in all well worth the trip and the cost.
