Rating 74.5

Beaver Creek divides Old Hickory Golf Club with nine holes sitting north of the creek and nine holes south. The course has a classic parkland layout that plays across gently rolling hills. The fairways were cut through forests of mature hardwoods but they are wide and carefully sculpted to direct balls toward the middle. Skillful players could even try to use the contours to their advantage. Each hole has a bunkers but the bunkering is not excessive. In addition to the mounding and bunkering, the undulating terrain provides natural elevation changes. The golf course finishes with what is arguably its toughest hole. This monster par 5 is 620 yards from the back tees. It requires a drive over a ravine with a natural waste area to the left. Many consider it to be the toughest golf hole in northern Virginia.

Course set up was cool

Give this course another month or two and it’ll be worth every penny but it is in the process of renovation in certain areas.

Decent shape and nice layout.

Greens show a lot of cut crab grass mixed in. They really need that under control before spring gets in full swing and that stuff spreads.

Seen Better Days

Fairways are in decent shape. Bunkers and a few other areas are under renovation. Raspberry tees that were moved more forward - MISTAKE - 1) people can choose to play a shorter course, and 2) don't do this unless you provide a proper tee box!! Did not notice if course rating was updated for new tee placements. Many golfers did not fix divots. Green conditions very bad on a few holes.

Greens were worst I have ever seen at this course

I have always enjoyed this course but today the greens were in the worst condition that I have seen not only at this course but any other in the region. Some may be lost entirely. Avoid this course until the greens are playable again.

Not as bad as people say

The greens are bad and the traps are water hazards. But it’s not horrible. Still an interesting layout and cordial staff.

Don't go to play the course now

First 8 greens are in terrible shape and pretty much unplayable. Bunker are in bad shape, too.
