Whiskey Creek Golf Club

Live 35 mins away for some 10 plus years and this is the first time playing WC. Loved the course. While it was slow play on the 8th and 12th par 4 hole because it was Cart Path only and it was crowded for a 3pm tee time, the pace was average though WC allowed a Five-some to play in front of us and it was not as if they were great golfers to keep up a record pace, but they did okay to minimum our wait.

Wish golfers would fix their divot marks on the Greens. Course had a few more than normal, but this place gets lots of play. IF YOU ARE A PULL-SLICE GOLFER that has a outside-to-in swing path, this course is for you !!!!!! Though I suffered with some miss hits on a few mid-irons and putts , my Driver was hot and that was solely because the layout favors those that have a slight left to right ball path.

Staff was friendly, range balls are included in greens fee and the putting green is next to HOLE #1 so its very convenient. Thanks WC, coming back to try and break my score of 90. Too many mental -errors to capitalize off my tee-shots.

Great course conditions, fun layout. Very pretty landscape. Excellent clubhouse and bar. Friendly dining staff.

Golf operations fell short. For a 2:06pm tee we did not tee off until 3pm. They said there was a 45-50 minute frost delay in the morning. They have phone numbers and emails, they did not communicate significant delays in start time. We had a group of 3 players that setup with 2 people in the first kart, 1 person in the second kart. We had a random fourth player join us and he had his own kart, no problem there. The starter at the first tee did not allow us to have 3 karts on the course, even though COVID is real. The starter tried to force unrelated groups in the same kart. We refused, the starter said one person would have to walk because two karts max per group. Frustrating given COVID conditions and social distance norms. Being young guys our group of 3 reluctantly agreed to have one person walk just to start golfing after the long delay. Later on Hole 6, I notice the group playing behind us has 4 players, 3 karts. It turns out the group behind us had Whiskey Creek employees so they had an exception allowed for 3 karts. Unacceptable double standard.

Lack of communication and unfriendly customer policies, there are other courses we will golf at.

Awesome layout, best in the DMV in my opinion. Being the priciest public course in the area lends itself to some higher standards. Unfortunately they did not meet these standards. Incredibly rude starter. Grass clippings all over several of the fairways. and to top it off a 5 HOUR pace of play. None of these things should really ever happen and certainly not all 3.

$115 had better provide a course in its absolute best conditions. It should be immaculate. Whiskey is a great lay out, but it just never delivers on course conditions. Bunkers have liners exposed, greens are ok but not fantastic. I used to play this course 10/12 times per year. Now it is once or twice. I would not have selected the course today, but a friend wanted to play there. We also had a very poor customer service experience. My friend has a compromised immune system and currently in chemotherapy for cancer. He was refused his own cart. Really ridiculous. I don’t blame the young man behind the counter, regurgitating what upper management had told him. This poor excuse for customer service falls on the GM and Kemper Sports. We were told that they had posted their policy on the website, which of course completely misses the point. This course is printing money. Buy some carts! And every once in a while, do the right thing and let people that have serious concerns about Covid-19 have their own cart! Do add insult to injury, the other two players we were paired with were a no-show. Clearly there were enough carts.

My annual trip to Whiskey Creek (about a 50 minute drive) and I was not disappointed. The course was in beautiful condition in the fairways and rough. The greens had been recently aerated, so they were a little bumpy, but still rolling fast--the aeration holes would divert the ball away from the hole so they are not completely recovered yet . The bunkers had lots of footprints in them--golfers not taking their foot and smoothing it over a little (without rakes available). The only other issue for me is there were no noodles in the holes...players had to reach completely in the cup to get their ball. Not good in this time of COVID 19. In any case, the course is a winner!

This course is in great shape and the staff is awesome unlike some other courses in the DMV area

Whiskey Creek is hands-down one of the top public courses in the DC area. That said I do find it a bit overpriced, but it is a reliable and enjoyable time. For a great course, it is not terribly challenging and a decent option for newer and intermediate players, too.

The friendliest staff I have ever experienced on any other course before. The conditions were amazing and the layout is great. It is a challenging course but not too hard. Clubhouse is top notch as well. Looking forward to playing again next time I visit Maryland

Greens were aerated with the DryJect system about 8 -10 days ago and are in very good shape, rolling great and with speed. Fairways are excellent. Rough, especially around the greens, is uniform and lush. Tee boxes and bunkers are very good and well kept. And the views are spectacular. Staff service, from the starter, to the marshals, to the clubhouse staff is excellent and friendly. All in all, a very well run course.

Hadn't played Whiskey Creek in at least 15 years. Greens had been aerated probably a week ago so they were a little slow. Everything else was immaculate! Would give it 5 stars except for the greens - but aeration happens this time of year. Highly recommend to everyone. Can't wait to make a return trip. Just so many courses to play withing an hours drive from Leesburg.
