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.

Where was the Marshall?

In the late afternoon when you are trying to get 9 holes done it is unfair to let players in front of you play 2 ball on every hole. I ask him not to play 2 balls on every hole and he told me to F_ _K Off. I could not find a Marshall.

Thank you for taking the time to review Glade Valley Golf Club with a 5-star rating! We are sorry to hear you may have had a negative experience with another golfer at our course. This is not acceptable and by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We're delighted you still enjoyed your round, but apologize a marshal could not help resolve the situation. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Glade Valley Golf Club!

Decent Course, has some teeth, needs some TLC

First time playing here. I give some lenience with the crazy world we live in. The course would be very good when fully maintained. The fairways were really hairy - they needed to be mowed. The greens had a lot of surprising breaks - I did not putt well at all. There were at least 2 tee boxes that were clearly designed before trees grew out. They need to trim some trees around those 2 tees. The pace of play today (1:00 PM tee time) was pretty slow (4;45). Not a bad course. Rough around the edges but it has potential. Pretty good value for the price.

Decent

The last hole, which is wide open, gives you a chance to make up a bad round.

Agree mike! Hahaha we submitted a similar review. But we missed saying that there were parts of the fairway that were unevenly mowed (slightly lower than the rough but definitely had higher grass than the normal fairway.) - john
