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.

Please Read"

I work and rate courses all over the USA, well, this course needs some help' 3 stars out of 5, if you want an easy course to play" straight and simple, ans waste over 5hrs playing, you found it" this is your course. we had to call the pro shop to have the golf ranger come out" to move the over beveraged people ahead of us to speed up play" very sad :( There was a plus" the greens are very nice, as for the tee boxes yikes" they really could use some help" It's differently a $30-$40 course. As for the practice range, get it together" Mats, or not" people were all over the place, Yikes, Fix your course, it realy could be nice, I also recommend a dress code as there were plenty of tee-shirt golfers.. would I play this course again" NO'

Had a Great Day

Course was in good condition. Fairways were good. Tee boxes and greens were in good shape for the most part. Not much water but enough marsh and creek areas to make it challenging. Rolling countryside but not to much elevation changes. Didnt seem to be hitting up or down too much. Staff was very nice. Bathrooms very clean. Food was good. Reasonably priced. Will come back.

Great round at Glade Valley

Under new ownership Glade Valley has improved immensely. Although the tee boxes need to be leveled, the fairways and greens are in great shape. The new and improved snack bar is staffed by friendly and courteous servers. Will definitely return and recommend this course to others.

Basic public golf course

Played here many times over the years. The course itself has improved over time, greens and fairways in fine shape. Tee boxes also filled in and in good shape.

Cart paths were so-so, as were the sand bunkers, but pretty much typical of a public track. Each hole had ball washers and trash receptacles. Th e range was open with mats and grass fed areas. No starter, refreshment/snack bar was not much to write about.

Played this course on a Tuesday.

Gem of a Course Near Frederick

Course is in as good a shape as it has always been. Sand traps were hardpan, and rough is a little high, but everything else is great, including the employees. A real bargain in the area.
