Good course, good pace, good time.

Great condition considering the time of year. Greens were harder to figure than normal. Course offers some interesting hole layouts. Some up, some down and some flat. I very much like this course. You can score well if you're under control.

Well maintained Old School course.

On warm January day, we adjusted quickly to the dormant greens were dormant on this 27-hole course. Even in winter the course (and the clubhouse, with an excellent grill), is visually appealing. It was uncrowded, and we three finished leisurely under 4 hours. Depending which 9s are played, the longest tees are 6,300 yards. There are virtually no water hazards, but the tree-lined fairways are narrow and sometimes hilly. The driving range and putting green are adequate. If I lived closer, I'd consider some sort of membership; as it is, it is an easy 60-mile drive on Interstate 66 from Northern Virginia.

The coures was fun and in great condition for off-season play.

I arrived at the course 20 minutes prior to my tee time, and was nicely greeted by the starter. The Pro Shop staff was very friendly and professional. I was able to complete my round of golf on a steady pace, and finished in just under 3.5 hours. The course was in great shape for January, and the greens were fast and true. A nice change of pace, and the scenery was wonderful.

Nice Place to Play

The course was in very good condition, fairways are wide on most holes, greens were well maintained. The rough was just high enough to make you look harder to find your ball in most areas. This was only reason we had to wait a few times to tee off so the group ahead could locate there shots. We played the white/blue course. Always a nice place to play in the fall.

Wel conditioned with beautiful views

I have played this course several times a year for the last 10 years and always find it worth the 1 hour and 15 minute drive. The price is a bargain and the course is unfailingly in good condition. While not especially long and without a single water hazard, it offers difficulty through a penal rough, elevation changes, tree-lined fairways, some blind shots, sand bunkers, and several tee shots that require accuracy through a narrow opening to avoid trees on both sides of the initial line of flight. The folks there are friendly, the views of the valley and surrounding mountains are serene, and there is a snack bar offering good food and beverages. You'll like it.

Good course with 27 holes. Greens are undulating and tricky.

This is a nice course to play when in the Shenandoah Valley. It has three separate 9-hole courses (Red, White, and Blue) so it is usually not too difficult to get out even without a tee time. Fairways are very forgiving but the greens require a gentle touch with a good read. The staff here will make you feel welcome.
