Old Hickory Golf Club

Paid $54 after 3pm. Not worth the money!!

Weed growing on greens, tee box and fairway. Looks like course isn’t spending any money on maintenance at all.

Hello!

My buddy and I have been golfing for years. We love to golf at beautiful golf courses in VA especially when we have to pay a decent price for a round of 18 holes. Since May of this year 2020, we have played over 8 different golf courses and not once have we been as disappointed as we were yesterday (Sun Aug 02, 2020) when we played 18-holes at Old Hickory!!

We paid 74$ for the most horrendous terrain not to mention the geese poop that we have to deal with.

We also had to sit and waited on every single hole. Some of these players are either clueless or just don't give a hoot which is very disturbing!!! Where was the course facilitator to monitor the course? Augh.....we were miserable and almost quit after the 11 hole!!

We recommend that Old Hickory should be SHUT DOWN FOREVER until the course can be remodeled !!! This was a waste of our money.

Sincerely,

Luv to Golf Girl & her Buddy

The fairways and greens are in rough shape right now. One of the guys that I played with said that's not normally the case. I will.play it again but only after they get the course looking better.

I’ve played this course many times in the past and it has been in good condition and always been fun. The course today was one of the worst golf courses I have played in my entire life. The fairways were mostly dirt, the greens and tee boxes were destroyed and had bare patches everywhere. There was crab grass everywhere and the sand traps were mud pits. The only thing that saved this day were the hot dogs and bloody Mary’s at the turn. It’s hard to see myself ever returning to this course. Hard to imagine it got to this condition.

Crabgrass is taking over the fringe on the greens. Bunkers are in bad condition. Fairways are brown in some places. Heat is really taking its toll. I’ll be back...

I've played Old Hickory quite often over the years. In general, a nice course with a good mix of hard and easy holes. The course is a bit beat up right now. Many tee boxes are bad shape. I wish they provided a sand/seed mix so players might repair their damage. Fairways are a mixed bag. We rolled the ball in the fairway to get a decent lie. The greens have some weed issues on the surrounds but generally roll ok. Not sure why but there seems to be less ball mark fixing on this course than others in the area. That's on the players, not the course. My biggest issue is paying $92 for these kinds of conditions. I'll come back to OH when I can get a rate that matches course conditions or when the conditions improve to merit that price.

It is challenging and looked beautiful online. But the course suffered badly through the lack of rain and is in horrible condition.

Definitely not worth the $80 on GN. The greens are burnt and crab grass infested. Fairways are mediocre at best and don’t even talk about the bunkers. None of the bunkers are playable as the are filled with water and have zero sand. Management should consider closing this course until major repairs are complete.

Overpriced for conditions, nice layout and design, but conditions are unfortunately sub par..

Wow is all I can say. I played here several years ago and liked the course, so we booked a tee-time last week. I read the recent reviews the day we were playing and was shocked. Then was really shocked when I saw it for myself. It's a shame that this once nice track has been totally let go. We actually described it as a "Dog Track". We won't be back. The staff was nice, but the course is in disrepair. Tee boxes, fairways, greens, bunkers, rough, all of it is in awful shape.

Burnt tee boxes, horrible rough (sparse or dirt). Grreens covered in ball marks. Sand traps were mud bowls. One of the worst shape courses I have ever played. The design is awesome, the condition is terrible and not worth the money.

The course was not in good condition. The greens were burnt in several places. The fairways were spotty at best. This course used to be wonderful. I have no idea what happened.

Course could be in better shape, but the greens rolled well and the course design/layout is great. Multiple tee box options make it fun for both beginners and advanced golfers.

I have played Old Hickory many times as I only live 10 minutes. Recently before Sunday I had played in April. Course conditions were outstanding. i don't know what happened but the course was in terrible condition. Greens and fairways were burned and missing grass in several places. Fairways had crab grass and weeds growing, unfilled divots in the fairways, and divot marks on the greens. People obviously don't care about a course in the this condition. Due to the conditions (we played in the morning) course was over watered to the point of the fairways being soggy. Trying to play a course in this condition for a score is useless. The reason why i am upset is that the pro and staff ignored the conditions did not warn players and charged a premium weekend fee for a course that can not be enjoyed in its normal state. For that reason alone, I will not play here again. You don't care about the patrons, I can not support the course. If I was a member living in this golf community I would be livid but I am sure they got some kind of discount, in which the non-members didn't receive.

At one point in time this course could demand $80+ greens fees but in the condition that it is in. They should close for he season and tend to the grounds.

The greens are in bad condition. Sand traps need a lot of attention. Fairways are rough and brown.

I would suggest playing one of other near by courses. They are in way better shape. I wouldn't pay $20 to play this course in it's current condition.
