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.

Ol Hickory
Great course conditions, very challenging and fun to play
Enjoyable 18 Holes of Golf
The course provided a challenging & enjoyabe round of golf on a 70+ degree Spring afternoon. The only downside was the sand on a number of greens, which were probably air aerated a number of days earlier.
solid course, excellent condition
as usual, Old Hickory played superbly and remains a premier course in the DC area
Fantastic First-time Experience
For it to be early in 2015 golfing season, the course was in outstanding condition. The greens rolled pretty true and the rough was not overly penal. I will definitely be playing Old Hickory again!
Great Value
Old Hickory is an awesome place to play. It's definitely a trek from DC but one my friends and I have gladly made over the years. The course is reminiscent of a pete or PB dye course with a lot of bunkering throughout the course and are positioned fairly for the most part, only penalizing bad shots. It's a development golf course so the majority of the holes are closely lined by houses. I'm also not sure if the course was bought by new management but the conditions have noticeably improved. The carts are brand spanking new and a lot of the other fixtures and equipment around the course is as well. The conditions were great and the greens look great. Definitely recommend.
Great Indian Summer Day in Feb
Course was in pretty decent shape for early February. Fairways were nice and smooth; Green were slow and bumpy. Some of the Tee boxes looked like they hadn't seen any maintenance since the summer; was really hard to push tees down into the box on most tee boxes. Sight lines are really good; few blind shots. Course could use more signage to help navigate from hole to hole. For a day when the course was packed, it was a good choice to play a round.
First Spring Golf
Great time and weather! More golf carts needed. Course is very friendly to new players, but is a challenge.
Exciting opportunities.
Course is a major risk/reward course with tee shots to undulated fairways and tiered greens. I cannot wait to play this course in season. The front nine was borderline frozen, but you can see the character play through the frost.
old hickory
I absolutely love this place by far one of the best courses in northern va. If you haven't had a chance to play it go. I promise you will like the challenging holes and the staff is helpful. A+ in my book
Winter golf
Greens were frozen due to weather but other than that everything else was excellent
Awesome!
This course was in immaculate condition for December! Enjoyed the round very much. Pace of play was a little slow but not horrible.
lucky me
Found a great hot deal via golfnow. Great course; challenging and great layout.
I wish the yardage difference between white and gold wasnt so large.
Great course
had a good time. there was a tourny in front of us, but by the eight hole we has no one in front of us. got the full 18 before night fall
not boring
Starting holes are scoring holes after that is becomes more difficult and every hole is different than the previous so fun to play
Tough track
It's a good solid tough track. Nothing really wows you, but it's in great shape and is challenging. Will be back again.
Great Day
Nice day at Old Hickory. Course played well and was in good condition.
straight forward course that is challenging
Leaves are starting to fall but still a great place to play. Couse in great shape. Sand a little hard from rain. Get it while you can.
Green course almost perfect
Golf on these course are fabulous, beautiful and challenging.
Always a great course
Course overall in good condition, overseedibg/reseeding being done throughout areas around tee boxes and around greens. Greens running good,!
Another good option for Beltway golfers
I live in Alexandria, so I have to drive 30 minutes in most cases to find a good public course to play. I'll definitely include Old Hickory in my regular rotation.
This is a tough course with a lot of trouble around the greens. We played the white tees, around 6000 yards, and it was definitely enough of a challenge for a mid-high handicapper like me. The greens were fast, there were lots of elevation changes in the fairway, and the holes were generally pretty tight.
It was hot as heck when I played, and there was a bit of a log jam in front of us. Those were detractors. The course was wet in a lot of places as well. But for a daily fee course, this was pretty darn good.
