Nestled in the foothills of the Catoctin Mountains about 15 minutes from Fredricksburg, Glade Valley Golf Club has been selected as a top-100 golf course in the Mid-Atlantic region by Washington Golf Monthly. The Jim Reck design, which opened in 1990, has a nice mix of woods, water, natural habitat and sand traps that will test golfers, but the golf course isn't overly difficult.

It's a fun track

They added GPS to the carts. On the holes with blind shots it shows you the group ahead of you and when it's clear.

Improvement

This course has always been a solid course. Not too difficult, but still a lot of fun. They have been making some very nice improvements, especially for not increasing their prices. The golf carts now have gps, and I’ve even seen some new carts in rotation. Carts that even have ball and club cleaners.

At this time of year, you would expect leaves all over the place, the greens and fairways beginning to... Well just not be in top condition. Surprise! They were in great condition. Love the course and guarantee I will be back there the first chance I get.

First Time Playing

Great Place

First time here, i got paired up with two local golfers Al and John that gave great info and history of the place. This was thanksgiving weekend and i thought the course was in great shape. Greens where rolling good. But i can tell, if you play here during summer months/ dry times. These greens will eat you up. There are some tuff down hill putts here if you don’t stay below the hole. There are some tight holes and nice open holes. And the par three’s are nice. The course is pretty much flat with some little hills. But nothing crazy. If you never played here. I drove 1.5hrs to get there and I would drive it again. See you next summer.

Nice course and folks, slow play, surprise cart return time

I liked the course and the staff in general.

Issues: Did not see anyone on the course trying to maintain the pace of play.

Booked a 12:40 tee time. When I checked in there was no mention of cart return time.

Starter made no mention of cart return time.

at about 4:15-4:30, a guy road by and said cart return time was 4:45. Since it will was still going to be light, and we were not made aware of this when we checked in, we decided to keep playing to get the last few holes in.

Right at 4:45, a young lady came riding around and tried to shame us for not respecting their rules.

Rules? If your going to yank us off of the course prematurely, you should warn us of this rule before we pay and start our round..

Great Course

This course is consistently good. Not great, it doesn’t have anything particularly special about it, but it’s always good. The grass on all parts of the course was in really good shape. The only downside was the noise from the people removing trees along the course.

Sweet track

1st time playing GV. Absolutely loved it. Will definitely go back. Greens were sweet. Fast & held golf shots. Tee boxes a hair long, but it’s late Oct. don’t expect them to be mowed 3x week this late. Fairways good. Strongly recommend this track.

Spectacular shape!!

Played this course a few times before in years past, thought it was an average track in average to below average condition. Now, apparently under new ownership, place is in terrific shape! Fairways and greens beautiful, tee boxes lush, foliage trimmed, basically $100 course condition. Trees have grown out a little to make the holes a little more challenging and, as before, pastoral setting (no houses in sight) is a nice relaxing day. Great job GV team!
