Old Hickory Golf Club
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.

Golfer Reviews
Course looking really good this fall
I was curious to go back to OH after reading some pretty negative reviews regarding course conditions after the long/hot summer. I have played out there more than 20 times over the yars, so I was suprised tos see such comments. well I am happy to report that the couse has grown back and is in fantastic shape! As staff explained, the lack of rain all summer really hit them hard, esp with the steamt nights taking its toll on the bent grass. Happy to report the place is doing very well with the mild/cool temps around these days. For those who've not been played it yet, make a trip out and hit the clubhouse after...food has been spot on!.

Worst conditions I have ever seen
This used to be a great course always in great shape. I have never seen a course in worse conditions than when we played. They gave up have off our next round But I don’t think I would go back bc the conditions were that bad .
Sad to see where it is now compared to what it used to be
Conditions coming back, pace of play isn't
Nice to see this great course coming back after a tough year. Bunkers still marginally playable, but fairways and greens improving nicely. Otherwise good day somewhat tainted by a threesome that held up the whole course from 830am on. Only shot without a wait came on 17. Staff/ranger friendly but not effective. Paired up with some very nice members, they are always first rate.
Not worth the hype and price
Course just not in good condition for the $85 plus price. Greens were in bad condition as well as a lot of the fairways. Just not well kept throughout and I shot one of my best rounds too but won’t be back
Super layout.
Keep it in the fairway and you will be rewarded. Stray, and you will pay dearly. Always a pleasure to get a deal on a great course. I will keep my eyes peeled for another deal.
Simply awful
I was simply shocked to see a course in such horrible conditions. The tee boxes looked like a mound of dirt with patches of weed. The fairways were a complete joke; there wasn’t a single fairway that needed repairs. Speaking of repairs, the greens were just as awful.
SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!
Love the course, but it needs work.
Lots of bare spots, most likely caused by heavy rains earlier this year. On Sunday afternoon, no golfers in front of us or behind us - made for a most pleasurable afternoon. Rough and grass around 16 and 17 holes needs mowing. Always surprised ad disappointed when no one when leaving the 18th hole and clubhouse asks about our golf experience to entice us to come back. Hugh the starter was very friendly and informative.
Good Round
The fairways have some patchy areas, but the greens are perfect. No complaints about the tee boxes. Finished in 3 hours and 40 minutes on a Saturday evening playing at the pace of a two-party. Layout is nice with several challenging holes and a good about of hazards without making the course itself too hazardous.
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
OUCH! Course has been beat up!
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!
Dont waste your time or money
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.
Terrible shape
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.
Not what it used to be
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.
