Raspberry Falls Golf & Hunt Club

I love this course, the layout is great and the bunkers are akin to links course which adds to the challenge. This was the first "warm" weekend of the season (low 60's), so I booked a tee-time with my 2 teenage sons for Sunday. Not surprisingly, it was packed, but the staff was great and we were in no hurry to get off the course. We had no problem with a 5-hour round as we were enjoying being out there, but some might. Even though the course is beautiful, there was some damage on some greens and some spots in fairways. Still early in the season so I'm confident with good weather these problem areas will be fixed. There is also a great range, putting, and chipping area to warm up. I'm a loyal fan of this course and especially the staff.

I have been coming over for years and never been disappointed. Beautiful scenery and well-maintained arrangement and amenities. One thing though, I hope they don’t charge for the range balls for players.

We returned to Raspberry Falls after a poor experience back in July and it was amazing. Course conditions improved 100% and was obvious to us that they have really steeped up the maintenance program. The course is certainly challenging but fair. Clubhouse is really nice and lots of food and drink alternatives. Go play and enjoy it!!

What a difference a few months make! Greens are much better and run true. Fairways coming back. Come next spring this course will be fully recovered. This goes for all golf courses - why are people so lazy to fix their ball marks? It takes 5 seconds. No matter what course I play I end up fixing 3 ball marks on every green. Fortunately I didn't have to fix many ball marks at Raspberry other than my own.

Very friendly and helpful staff, and a nice course layout.

There were a few tee boxes and greens in need of attention/repair.

What a great layout. If there was a playable golf course here I would head back tomorrow.

This course is severely lacking acceptable maintenance. Tee boxes, greens and fairways all all in poor condition. The course is extremely wet as well.

Unfortunately this course shows what plagues many courses today...poor greens keeping practices.

There really isn’t any reason why this course shouldn’t be in the top 10 courses in NVA...except it isn’t simply due to unacceptable playing conditions.

Too bad because it truly is a beautiful layout. Not worth the 42 buck a round. Not even close.

All staff are very kind and beautiful course all 18 holes!!!

This great course has fallen on hard times. The course is now in poor shape, with rough patches and bold spot on most fairways. The greens were good, but a number of tee boxes were not

The coursé suffer a hard summer most hole are cart tpath only and even with that some hole was 4 group waiting on a Monday

I call the club house but nothing happened

Worst round so far

Design is great but not worth the ride from Maryland

Haven't played this course for a while and was surprised by how soft the turf has gotten. Needs maintenance but actually needs a week or two untouched to take root and grow. It's so fresh I was leaving perfect dollar bill size strips off the fairway with no effort. Stunning views and challenging worth the price if you get a deal.

This course used to be my favorite in the area to play. As a former club professional, I can remember playing it before it was even open to the public. The layout is great, the conditions were superb, and the experience was one we always remembered (for good reasons). Those days are long gone! Over the past year, or so, the conditions and quality of experience have gone down dramatically. I was embarrassed that last Sunday when I invited a friend to play (and he even insisted on paying for my round as well!) and we were confronted with the conditions at the present. The fact that we received a $25 gift card (which we'll have to use at the club, or maybe one of the other affiliates) did not make a difference. The fee should have been $25, not the $89 robbery..we were a captive customer at this point and had to take our chances. I will not play this course again until MANY reviews confirm the improvement of the conditions nor will I recommend it to anyone. As it stands right now, this should be a frisbee golf course and nothing more.

When one of the probably 3 best public golf courses in the DC area, Raspberry Falls, looks so horrible, maybe there is something deeper going on. Hope not, but Raspberry Falls is gone. It looks like they have basically given up and shut it down for year - but didn’t tell the customer. It’s not that the fairways and most of the tee boxes are burned out. There appears to be no maintenance going on whatsoever. Sand traps, cart paths, divots, you name it. The place has gone to seed. Raspberry used to be a spot we looked forward to playing. It was a high end and comfortable place. You would actually stick around and have lunch. Not today. Not a lot has changed and in a bad way. Even the men’s room is tired. Same wallpaper, same furniture, ...the place is tired and looks like it’s in decline. I didn’t see a great course just having a bad week. I saw decline and decay all around and it was tough to see.
