Raspberry Falls Golf & Hunt Club

$130 dollars is just simply too much to play a golf course that is in this condition. I have played several of the raspberry falls properties. And this one was in about equal shape to Augustine. Which was half the price to play.

This layout is fun and fantastic but there is no way of indicating if the pin is in the front, middle, or back of the green. Would much rather play Augustine or even Old Hickory twice, or either course at Penn National. I really wanted to love Raspberry Falls but it is just average, and for the price I paid I expected to be blown away.

Since there had been rain, we played cart path only for the whole course. Needless to say, it was good exercise.

Right now is not the best time to play this course. There are several holes that are under construction/repair. This is one of my favorite courses in the area, but this is the worst I’ve seen the course in the last two years.

Lots of ongoing construction which isn’t ideal as Spring approaches.

Was a great time even under winter conditions...we’ll definitely be back !!

Nice links style course that in midwinter has held up fairly nicely both in the fairways and on the greens. We were impressed.

Pace of play was decent for playing on a Sunday and the staff was friendly and accommodating.

Enjoyable Gary Player course design that is open and yet challenging. We look forward to returning and playing again this Winter/Spring.

I will caveat this review by saying Ive played this course before and had better experience. I had a tee time at 2:24 and was delayed 30 minutes before I finally got out. They said they didn’t have any carts so they let two others at our time slot go out while me and another guy waited. While we were waiting, someone I presume was a member, went out and teed off. Finally they came out with a cart but said me and the other guy at the time slot had to share (despite covid-19 social distancing). I just decided to walk because I wasn’t waiting another half hour. Frustrating part is the rate was supposed to include a cart and I could see multiple carts in the shed being charged up and multiple around back waiting to be cleaned up

A must play course in NOVA. Pace was good and staff were friendly as always. One of the finest courses in the region.

This course remains obscenely over-priced for it's consistently poor condition. Really a shame as it is a great lay-out but between the bare tees, chewed up fairways, bunkers with rocks, dirt, clay, some sort of fiber matting but little/no sand and sketchy, inconsistent greens, it is not worth the time, aggravation and certainly not $115 to play. Word around the course was that they met their break-even back in May so not sure where the profit is going...it isn't going to repair the bridge that washed out back in Aug and obviously not going toward any improvements in conditions, management (slow play) or capital. They have apparently hired a "language ranger" though to help control the use of profanity so they got that going for them. Go elsewhere

2020 has seen great course conditions in the Northern Virgina and Maryland region. So it was a shock to see the deterioration in the condition of Raspberry Falls. Bad tee-boxes, bad fairways, bad greens, bad rough, bad bunkers. It was as though the only maintenance done was to mow the grass. According to the pro shop the greens had been aerated within the previous two weeks - in November! This does not give them a pass on the green conditions but is another indication of poor and/or underfunded course management. I have played more than 30 courses in the region this year. This course, by a mile, is in the worst condition of any of them.

What to say. Great layout that is struggling. Have played here several times a year over last 15 years but this was sad. $95 for poorly maintained course w/terrible pace of play. Only redeeming feature was grass tees on range. Greens were aerated 3 weeks ago but frankly won’t be playable until next year. 5 hr round. Raspberry Golf Mgmt has a number of courses w/good bones but the upkeep & maintenance seems to be testing their capabilities.
