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.

Awful

The tee boxes, fairways, greens are all the same. BAD. Oh, I forgot the bunkers, worse than bad. It’s an absolute crime that they charge $125 for this.

Eclipse Day

Course was empty on a Monday, solar eclipse day. I sped through in about 2 1/2 hours. In pretty good shape. Tee boxes a bit scuffed up.

Not a bad course for the money, layout was a lot of fun. Conditions weren’t terrible for the most part, just a lack of grass on some of the holes. Makes for extra tight lies in the fairway. Pro shop staff was okay, lady working behind the bar was fantastic. Good for under 80 bucks

Needs help

I understand we’re at the beginning of the season, however bunkers are in absolute terrible conditions, tee boxes spotti, almost better to hit from rough than fairways. Driving range is a joke. Greens were only saving grace.

A work in progress

The greens are back to where they used to be. They are working on the bunkers,adding white sand. Fairways are starting to come to life.

Great layout and pace of play

Great layout and pace of play. Course still recovering from the winter but I would imagine in the summer it perks up. Doing a lot of bunker maintenance around the course which will be nice in a couple months.

Pace of Play Issues- An Understatement

5.5-6 hours to play 18 is ridiculous and then the group in front threatened one of the people in the foursome I played with bodily harm with a weapon. This place is too slow to be worth even $40 let alone $90+

Old Hickory 9 holes

I have not played here in years and really glad I booked here even though I only played 9 holes. The course was in great shape and had a great time. I will definitely be back for a full 18.

Did not honor online pricing as confirmed by phone call

I have played the terrific Old Hickory golf course MANY times over the past 20+ years and I have ALWAYS enjoyed playing it, but because of how I was treated last week, I will never play there again. Online, the Friday rate for seniors was shown to be the same as senior rates for MON-THURS (see uploaded image). I emailed the GM to verify if this was accurate, but received no response. So, I called the course pro shop a few days later to confirm that the senior rate WAS in fact good for Friday 9/29 – I was told unconditionally that the answer was YES. When I arrived at the course on 9/29, I was told that Friday rate for seniors was NOT the rate that I found online and which had been confirmed by phone. It appears that the GM changed the rates online prior to my arrival on 9/29, but did not let me know of this change. To me, this matter was handled unprofessionally.
