Rating 74.6

Laurel Hill Golf Club has some of the best conditions of any public course in the area, which is why it is popular amongst the locals. It is hard to believe that the club sits where the DC Department of Corrections facility at Lorton used to be located. The layout has a traditional design, but unlike older golf courses it runs a lengthy 7,102 yards from the back tees. The greens are lightning fast and undulating. There is defined contouring throughout the course, which allows for some interesting holes. Although the fairways are wide open they are still punishing towards errant shots. There are dramatic elevation changes throughout the golf course, making a flat lie nearly impossible to find. The course provides a formidable test for even the most seasoned players.

Ok not bad but not great

The day I played it was wet from the previous night rain, making it cart path only (which always sucks). The layout was interesting and I can see it being a bit more challenging from the back tees. Tee box maintenance was mixed. The greens were inconsistent. I would like to give this course another try when it’s dry.

For some strange reason it was cart path only which I don't understand why the course was not wet all this did was make it longer time to play and wear me out.

As challenging as ever!

The course was in good/great condition.

We got dogged a bit by the Marshall but we're held up sometimes by the group in front of us

The deal thru GoldNow was great pricing!

Challenging layout with good conditions

Very challenging layout, especially from the Blues. Some very long par 4s. Generally very good conditions with a few areas of patchy grass. Greens rolled well. Pace of play was right on target 4 hours.

Patchy spots

There are multiple patchy places around the course mostly on the fairways and approach areas. There was a few greens that was patchy as well. This is probably due to the wet weather and heat that we had over the past several weeks.

They must have just cut the rough and fairways as we had lots of grass clippings on you ball.

Due to course conditions, they could have lowered the prices a bit for weekday play. I def wouldn’t pay full rack rate on the weekends..

Great Layout, Horrid Shape

This course has one of the best layouts in the state, but man is it in horrible shape. I played with locals on this day and they told me this is the worst shape the course has ever been in. Greens are extremely inconsistent with hole 14 being basically putting on mud. Every hole has a different speed right now. Layout is top tier, very enjoyable. However, condition is in maybe $40-50 territory, no where near the $130 they charged me. Stay away, this course needs to close for a week to punch and sand. Otherwise, I worry they're risking losing the once great conditions forever.

Spend your money elsewhere in the meantime, when the conditions are good I will be back. However, it is the most disappointing conditions in NOVA right now.

Course was in terrible condition. Greens were half mud and could never get a true roll. Greens were not taken care of. Pace of play was slow, there was no Marshall enforcing the pace if play. For over $90 would not consider playing this course. Go to pohick bay.
