About
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.

Golfer Reviews
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.
The place is in great shape and the layout is really good.
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
Love this course but the greens were pretty slow. 5 hour round which is not great but I will be back when the weather gets cooler and they charge less...
Solid if you live close
First time playing, didn’t know what to expect. No range sucks, I need to get loose before I go out so that was a bummer. The course conditions were really solid, no bad areas, around the greens, greens, and tee boxes were phenomenal. The course layout is strange, felt like some of the par 3’s were longer than par 4’s. Pace of play on the back was horrendous. Tough little course. Halfway house was PHENOMENAL. Big plus. Prob won’t go back since I live about 35 min away but glad I at least went. The greens crew followed out ground around the whole back 9 at 3pm for some reason doing greens work, and the sprinklers were going off mid day and could hit shots in the middle of the fairway on 4 holes because of it. If I lived 5-10 min away I’d go back.
