Old Hickory Golf Club

Have played Old Hickory many times and enjoy the layout and course. Today the course was in awful conditions. The tee boxes, fairways and traps are in need of a lot of work

Many many bare spots in fairways, traps.hard as rocks and tee boxes not much better

When checking in it would have been courteous for the pro shop to inform us

I try to play this course a couple of times a year. I would skip it for at least a month, hoping conditions improve. Most tee boxes have major areas of diseased or no grass. Many fairways are the same. Greens were being worked on today, very small tine punched, those that were punched were in better shape than those that had not. Granted, the course management indicated they had significant rain last night but the course was extremely wet and draining poorly. Very few fairways were not mostly casual water. I would say this course today was the worst shape I have ever seen it!

Terrible shape. It's not even playable. No grass in the fairways, tee boxes are a joke and the bunkers are unplayable. Large portions of the fairway marked as ground under repair on the back nine. Dont bother coming here, extremely disappointed because the layout is good but conditions are an absolutel joke. They should be more upfront to anyone who calls and asks about the condition.

Flew in to have some time with friends, wanted to try a new course this one had good reviews. The tee boxes were literally missing grass lol. Multiple tee boxes were dirt/mud and some grass here and there. Multiple fairways closed in the middle of the fairway due to poor shape. Greens were not terrible but not good at all, for 70 bucks is a huge letdown and disappointment.

This used to be a great course. Unfortunately it is no longer what is used to be. Many of the tee boxes, fairways and greens are unplayable. This course has always had a great layout. But course conditions are very poor. I do see some efforts to improve the course but I fear that things have gone too far downhill.

Played the course in May and it was wonderful. The Grounds staff is fighting a fungus or something on the fairways and some greens. The rough was tough, but around the greens conditions were terrible. Sad to see the course in this bad of condition. The price was good, so all in all, its worth the money.

It was hot 96 degrees and 74% humidity, making it a sweltering day, and found too many coolers empty! Come on man .

Walked off after 14 holes. Tee time before 8am on weekend and still 4:45+ pace. Paid $91 for chewed up tees, patchy greens, awful fairways. As someone who frequents east Potomac, I don’t mind conditions that are a little rough. I do mind 4:45+ hour rounds before 8am on chewed up courses for 90+ dollars. Nice staff and fun layout, but stay away unless you’re paying 40 or less.

Tee box, fairway, putting green are in very bad shape. HORRIBLE SHAPE.wish I could get my money back!!!:(

Please understand that I only rated the course conditions poor because they were on the day that I played....BUT You can tell they are working to make the course better. There were a lot of areas under repair when I played. I look at this more as a positive than a negative because they actually care to repair it unlike many lower quality courses who would just let it die. So, I am actually excited to play here again next year when I think it will be in fantastic shape and a very challenging layout.

Off-course amenities are ok. The clubhouse is great, bar is great, food looked good. My biggest issue is that the driving range is pretty poor as was the putting green. While the driving range would be hard to fix, I think more can be done with the putting green.

All in all, I'd say this is a pretty decent track and, when repaired, it will give you a challenging (but fair) round of golf.

They are working on the course, but currently it has a lot of brown patches in numerous fairways. A number of tees are in bad shape, and the greens need to be improved.

However, the pace of play was excellent and it is a fair course for all levels of player.

Thegreens had been pilled and haddead and baron patches. Sections of fairway were blocked off on every hole. Course was in awful condition. No discounted rate or deal for next time either.

I was disappointed that the course fairways were not in great shape and greens were below average. I love the design of the course. For the cost there are other courses in better shape for less money.

Greens were very poor. Recently aerated and horrible to putt on. Otherwise very good day

The golf course is in horrible condition and we found out after we got there it was aerated which made it almost impossible to read and make putts, and the fact that it was cart path only. Not worth the money or travel for now

Greens were just aerated without any communication on their website. I was shocked to come up to the first green and the aerated holes were the size of dimes without any top dressing! You could not putt on them, you might as well have putted blindfolded. Golf ball was bouncing around as you putted. Add to this that it was cart path only on the hottest day of the year on a busy Saturday....unbelievable. Who is managing this course?

Next time, tell the consumer your product is not up to par and adjust your price accordingly......this is poor management and I will not be coming back anytime soon.

First time at this course. Local knowledge would help. We had a great time. Great conditions, pace of play. Enjoyed the greens. Be careful finding the tunnel from 14 to 15.

I have played this course a lot and it’s typically a good value given how expensive courses are in NOVA. The pace of play here is also pretty good. Just can’t understand why it was cart path only yesterday given how great a condition it was in. It was 93 degrees and humid yesterday and it made for a really long and hot round not being able to drive carts on the fairway. There were very few places that were even damp that we could tell. Frustrating to say the least.

I usually love playing here. But on a Wednesday afternoon before the 4th, it was a bit of a mess. No starter, no beverage cart, water stations empty, evidently a change in the range policy (mediocre range + no complimentary balls = poor value) and as everyone in the DMV knows, no ranger. Bunkers in bad condition, ladies in the bar nice when there was a break in the World Cup game, people driving cross country to cut in and out of play, groups off the back nine at will, etc, etc. Can't complain too much because of the rate and I'll be back, but it will be in the early morning to get done before this nonsense.

Excellent course. Tee boxes were a little messy and need some serious work but fairways and greens on point. Def coming back. Pace was great.
