Raspberry Falls Golf & Hunt Club
About
Raspberry Falls Golf & Hunt Club offers the traditional links course reminiscent of those found in the British Isles, situated amidst Virginia's horse country. The club gets its name from the land's former use, a raspberry field. The scenic terrain overlooks to Catoctin Mountains and there are still a few raspberry bushes dotting the course. By far the layout's most formidable challenges come from the deep, stacked pot bunkers that make it truly feel like a classic Scottish golf course. There are also water hazards on a few holes. The course's signature is the par-4 third hole, which is long but plays downhill all the way. The 10th hole, another par 4, is one of the toughest. The landing area is generous off the tee but there is a creek and pond to the left and fairway bunkers on the right.

Great twilight round
Enjoyed our round out at Raspberry Falls as usual. Course was in good shape, save for some grass clippings in the rough due to all the heavy rain we have had recently. Not a really big issue since those should be gone soon. Fairways were in great shape, and greens were in great shape as well. If you can withstand the traffic getting there, it is worth a twilight round. We paid $34, and that felt like a steal. No other courses will you pay that low and get the same quality of course. We had NOBODY in front, and nobody behind. Made for a really good day out there. We will be back!
Fun course
Had a great time yesterday. First cut a little long but shouldn’t have been in there anyway. Great greens course in great shape.
Great course
Raspberry is always a great experience and it’s rare that you get a wide open course with expansive views in Northern VA without homes hovering over the course.
The only knock I have was not that the rough off the fairway was brutal, but there were way too many grass clippings and clumps off the fairway that made it almost impossible to find your ball when it should have been easily findable.
All in all, always a great time at Raspberry.
Great course
Enjoyed the round and the treatment from the staff!
Very fun and very pretty course with fun, varied houles
This was a very nice course with great amenities and facilities. The staff was great upon arrival and all throughout the day.
The range, you had to hit off the mats which was not great, but it is spring time and they are trying to get the grass to grow in on the range.
The Bunkers well nicely maintained and all were raked. The fairways were beautiful and lush. Thr rough was a challenge because the grass was long and thick. I lost a couple balls in the rough just because the rough was quite long and very lush.
The greens were smooth and consistent. The greens have lots of slopes and undulations. I loved that very few ball marks were left um-repaired ont eh greens.
Overall a very nice course with great service.
Excellent course layout
The course is in a great condition for this time of year, the layout is great. The staff is very friendly , practice facilities are great !
Grill was closed to public because of an outing
Course is in excellent shape, staff was extremely friendly however when we made the turn the grill was closed due to an outing. All our group wanted was a drink and some food, anything, but we were informed the grill was closed to the public and they would send someone to the tenth hole . We got our food on the fifteenth hole... over an hour later. Tipped the guy 20$ but it would have been nice on a Friday afternoon at 4:00 to be able to get something at the turn. Next time hold your after party for an event in a separate area please don’t close the grill.
Great course, needs aeration
The course was wellmpriced and pace was good. The greens were the fastest I've ever played. Like cement. They need to be aerated and the hole locations were brutal.
Hard greens
Very difficult greens this time of year. Many pin locations require you to drop the ball or it'll run 20 feet past. Even full spinning high shots wont stop. Be prepared to putt or you'll feel the pain of circus mini golf.
Frequent visitor; always a fun course
Course was in great shape, and this was the first time I have played here that they had the grass range open! I'm sure they have the grass range open, but I usually am not able to play when they have it open. It was in great shape, and enjoyed using the grass. Chipping area was also in great shape! We played on a Saturday afternoon, and the course was EMPTY. The weather was great when we started, but was rainy by the time we got to the 14th or 15th hole; maybe that was what was putting people off. Whatever the case may be, we did not see a SINGLE PERSON out on the course. We played as a 4-some, and were able to take our time on all the holes, and still finish in less than 4 hours. The fairways were still in good shape, and greens were rolling true and quick. They really do take care of this course all year long. I will certainly be back to play in the winter months! When this course is as cheap as Westpark or Brambleton, and I am only 10 minutes away, it is certainly a no-brainer! Well done, Raspberry Falls!!
Excellent round of golf
Very enjoyable round. Course was in great shape and the greens were fast and pretty difficult. Staff and amenities were top notch.
One of Northern Virginia's best public courses.
I've had the pleasure of playing Raspberry Falls a handful of times. While I personally prefer to walk when I play golf, which Raspberry Falls is walkable, I've thoroughly enjoyed each and every round at Raspberry.
While the fairways aren't too overly tight, the layout is somewhat challenging with surrounded greens on many holes and very difficult green side bunkers. There are a number of picturesque holes with elevated tees that hit down a couple hundred feet into the fairways with mountain views in the background.
One of, if not the, Northern Virginia's best public courses -- most certainly recommend for any golfer that hasn't had the privilege of playing or anyone looking for a challenging, well maintained and beautiful course.
Beautiful layout
Very friendly staff. Great course with a lot of interesting holes. Good condition.
Worth playing
If money isn't a big deal, or you catch a deal on golf for $80-$90, then Raspberry Falls is a great place to play. There is a country club atmosphere, in a public setting.
When you pull up, a vested valet picks up your clubs in the parking lot and takes them to your cart. The pro shop is well stocked with quality merchandise, and the gentlemen in the back may have a tad bit more "attitude" than needed, but it wasn't a rude experience. In other words, maybe lighten up a little...
The driving range is free to warm up. If you could hit off grass instead of mats, it would be perfect. But it's very nice to go out hit, and not have to worry.
The course is beautifully laid out, in great condition, and challenging from the Blue tees as I am a 14 handicap. I would say right now in the NOVA area, this is my second favorite choice to play now. Stonewall is still #1.
Slow slow slow
Teed off at 415 as two ball and played 13holes before we caught the earlier tee times off. We then faced a choice wait or go in. When will people learn that 5 hrs for a round of golf is too long. It is killing our game. I watched 2 groups take 25 mins on hole 18 alone. Totally unacceptable. So the course was great as always but to only get 13 holes in with no hope of finishing before dark is disappointing.
A golf course is for golfing not the dining experience.
