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.

Great course
Great course, well maintained. We played cart path only day (after rain) so it slowed the pace considerably
Slightly dissapointed
Would have been nice to know the greens had been aerated!!!
Unable to eat after round because we were not informed at tee off time there was a wedding reception planned for that afternoon. Applebee's was an adeqaute replacement.
Unfortunate Conditions for a weekend round
I play Old Hickory often and usually love it. The Layouts is great but the conditions are hit or miss. Played 18 holes on 7-10-2015. The fairways were not mowed, greens were punched and got no prior notice. Was not happy with the course conditions.
Rate switch
I was quoted a rate of $55 when the tee time was made. When I got to the course, I was greeted by the general manager who said the rate will be $69. After explaining the original quote, he stood firm and refused to budge. I was left with a bad taste for this club's customer service policy. This has influenced my desire to return for future rounds.
Old Hickory -- "A Must Play"
From the Staff to the Course, Excellent Overall!!! Narrow Fairways, therefore, pack extra sleeves of balls.
A little pricey
I would not play this course fro the price they're asking.
It is worth the Golf Now price.
It could definitely use more visible distance markers.
Loved the course
It's challenging, but fair. I love the greens because of the undulations.
Great course for a golf outing
Old Hickory is the best public course in the area. Conditions are always fantastic. The course is challenging and requires accurate shot making. The staff always makes our annual outing a great success for everyone. Thanks and we'll be back again next year.
Playing from the tips provides a challenge
Very nice course! This was my second time playing Old Hickory. I must admit each time gets better, however, you have to employ course management. Looking forward to playing it again!

Great
Great course. Challenging, great greens. Should post handicaps at tee box. 22's should not hit from black or gold.
A good round of golf. Great course!
Had a great time. Played with a member after the tournament. There was some back up initially but the pace picked up. Overall a great course to play.
Grade B
Management could have paid better attention to details like no sand in containers on carts, water coolers out of water and extreme pin placements. Course was in good condition. Grade of B on a scale of A-F.
Nice Track
Overall a very nice course. The greens run true and hold well. I would not say they were fast. It would take a long time to get bored of this place
Excellent course
The course is in great shape and the staff is friendly.
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.
