About
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.

poor conditions due to heat
The course was in really bad shape after the recent heat wave over the 4th. Also lots of areas with ground under repair. It's a good course with a good layout but can't recommend it for the price given its current conditions.
Lot of ground under repair
Looks as though course management is repairing bunkers/removing them. Some Greens are rough looking due to temperatures, but still playable. I’ll be back!
Still an enjoyable course to play
Fast pace as very few players our today. Greens are. Looking rough but it is July in northern VA. Which is a harsh time for anything green. Staff always friendly and helpful!!
Course condition deteriorating rapidly
Greens have a lot of brown patches. They were in much better condition in April. Some of thee bunkers are non playable
FaIrways are average.
Overall too expensive for current condition of course.
Staff are very friendly.
The course could be
The course was in poor condition. This course would be about $15 at most $54 hot deal.
Dumpster fire
There was more ground under repair than there was grounds. OB was sometimes on the side of a cart parth. Don't bring your driver to the course as a miss of less than 15 wars in either way will result in a lost ball in unattended grounds. It was not a fun course to play, and the difficulty was not clear (hidden bail outs).
The greens rolled fair, thankfully, the one saving grace of the course.
Use waze when getting GPS directions to the course. I used Apple Maps with the same address and it brings you into a Ryan Homes community instead of the golf course.
What happened?
This was the first time we played this course in 3 and half years. They used to maintain this golf course much better before. We were a little disappointed in the course condition...
Could be better
I know times are tough but 97 bucks for this course is too much , ground under repair all over the course. I like the layout and enjoy playing there. But I wouldn’t play for that much again.
Like the course and the staff is nice
I enjoy playing the course as it is so close to my home, but the pace of play is always up to a roll of the dice. Sunday started out well until the 8th hole when everything slowed to a crawl. The last three holes took over an hour to complete. :(. Painful but will try again next time!
Fun Course
Old Hickory is a tough but fair course. It has a great layout with a good mix of 'scoreable' holes and tough holes. It's priced better than a lot of the courses in the area and is always fun to play.
Fun course, firm greens!
Fun course, good condition. The greens roll smooth but they are very, very firm. The ball hits, bounces, and will usually run off the back. Definitely play a shorter shot that can roll on the green when possible. I’m a high spin player that uses Pro V1 balls and I didn’t have a single shot stick today. Save some energy for the 600 yard 18th!
Challenging course
Great layout challenging from the gold tees @ 6600. Friendly staff. Will be back
