Situated in the foothills of Bull Run Mountain, Bull Run Golf Club has a beautiful woodland setting that is conveniently located just minutes from many historic Civil War sites. The course plays through mature forests and across lush, grassy meadows. There are also several ponds that come into play throughout. The expansive layout covers over 450 acres, allowing plenty of room for the native flora and fauna. The risk-reward layout has plenty of challenges for more daring hitters but it also offers wide fairways that are molded to steer the ball towards the center. The landing areas are generous but they are often framed by grassy hollows, bunkers, or mature trees. Bull Run is challenging, but playable, which is why the club is considered one of the best golf courses in the D.C. area.

Great Value for the Cost

Got a hot deal through Golf now, and thoroughly enjoyed the round. Several very muddy, wet spots on many holes, but those could not be helped given the recent weather. Greens and fairways looked as if players were not repairing ball marks and divots. So, it was my pleasure to fix those things when/if I could. Pace of play slowed considerably on the back 9, with no Marshall activity addressing the issue.

Good Layout, Slow Green Speed

This course has pretty good course layout - each hole has different style and the view is good especially around this time of the year.

The down side is green is very slow. Not many divots but the grass is not cut shortly enough to make a good roll on the green.

Also, the course management staffs did not care players. They were blowing out the fallen leaves, which is necessary, but kept blowing them too close to us whenever we were on the tee boxes, fairways, or greens. It is very annoying to hear the sound of the blower right next to me when I’m trying to putt or swing.

Challenging course but some staff members are too rigid

Fair experience overall. If you are a beginner or an intermediate player, you may annoy other players if you do not keep up with the pace. Specially when you must use cart path all then time due to amount of rain in last week. This is a failure in adjusting tee-times to compensate for the use of cart paths vs. the size of the course.

It is a challenging and fun course to play. Staff at the club house was very picky. A gentleman when I was checking in almost did not allow me to play since I was not wearing a polo shirt. I was wearing long golf pants and a special UPF 50+ long sleeve shirt without a collar. I was not aware of have to have collar policy. It was uncomfortable but I was able to play. Need flexibility and do not pick on players that require a UPF attire for medical reasons. Also, wearing double shirts in a sunny day will be quite uncomfortable. Also, I saw many ladies that do not have polo shirts and have athletic blouses. Be consistent and use common sense before making players uncomfortable.

Since only cart paths were available due to the amount of rain in the last week, adjust tee-times accordingly due to the size of the course. Balance pace with size. Use metrics or sensors for that.

Added to my top five local courses

I really enjoyed the course. It wasn't terribly difficult, yet it wasn't overly easy either. The course made sense. The greens were and good condition that will bit slow. Pin placement was quite fair. Fairways and greens are trapped in nicely for a reasonable challenge, with ample landing zones, good for bogie golfers.

I love the practice area! The chipping green is fantastic and I got some great practice there. The putting green and driving range are nothing special, but had some conveniences that I appreciate. The driving range had Matt's or grass and very accurate markers.

The staff was friendly. The location is great. I wish the price was a bit lower, but considering the cost of some similar courses around here, I'll take it. I'll definitely be coming back.

This course has had better days, summer heat has dried out some spots…. But they also have some random soaked spots so maybe bad drainage. Overall decent conditions, should get better
