Laurel Hill Golf Club

Late Saturday PM tee off Easter Saturday. Had read about slow pace of play so did not think we would get round in given 3:30 tee time.18 finished in 4:10. Long course, even from white tees, but wide fairways. Greens are huge and hold pretty well. Will definitely play again. Staff was very helpful and pleasant.

This course can fool you on every shot. There’s no flat lies or shots on this track. If you happen to get a flat shot then you may want to check that you are on the right hole. You have to be ready to hit every conceivable type of shot before the round is done. Eventually this course will get the better of you but when you finish you’ll be happy you played it and are finished for now

This is a great track that can sneak up on you at any time. Requires some thought before just getting up on the tee and ripping it. Once you’ve hit the green you still have work to do to ensure you don’t give up any shots. There’s plenty of subtleties in the green that can easily turn your par into a bogey or higher. Concentration is a must until you put it in the hole. Finally the views and layouts of each hole is truly an impressive part of your day and you should make a little time to take it in and maybe a photo or two.

The course was plugged and punched and played as such. Putts were unable to roll true and we got many unplanned bounces due to the dirt plus laying all over the place. Due to the course conditions that is why I said it was not worth the $90 price. See my google review for the pics.

With this said give this course about three weeks and it will be in amazing shape. I could tell this was a nice track and the course is more of a resort style course. The fairways are plenty wide and the greens were huge. The bunkers were well placed and in fantastic shape too.

We saw the beverage cart multiple times. The clubhouse was speedy for food pick up. It was nice to have the range balls included but I personally hate hitting off the mats. The practice area was extremely busy but I had not issues finding somewhere to warm up. However I did question the pin distances based on the warm up spaces.

Recommended improvement would be for the the starter to let you know the pin positions and ask if you have played the course before to provide a better welcoming experience. I would also recommend having a few more club cleaning water stations on the range and make sure the sand bottles on the cart are topped off or have stations around the course to pick up filled bottles. Ours were almost empty and were done after three uses.

No mention of aeration when I booked the time. No break in the rate for the greens being aerated and the sand was thick sometimes on the green and other it wasn’t. Inconsistent greens. Bunkers not taken care of. Course tee to green is as easy as it gets since the mowed everything down to start the season. Will look elsewhere for my next round.

Loved this course! Every hole was fun and provided something new - we loved the variety of styles for each hole. The only thing I would ask for is a good map of the course and/or a screen/gps to assist with the course. Although, each hole was labeled well so that was a huge plus. As a beginner this was a little over my level (2 holes were at my level and the rest way above) of play but my husband was really happy with it.

I booked this course when I found an open spot in the afternoon, as it’s usually very difficult bfind tee times to play. Later a friend joined and the staff at the pro shop accommodated us by moving us to the same tee times. The course is in great shape, and arguably the best course in Fairfax!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

An awesome golf course and always is in such a great shape. Course crew do an amazing job. Except one staff member everyone else is friendly and professional.

The course was incredibly soggy, significantly harming the quality of play and consistency of fairways and greens. Some very muddy sections, too, and caked bunkers as well. But we haven't had any rain in over 2 weeks, so this was entirely self-inflicted through poor course management/greenskeeping and awful drainage infrastructure. Otherwise this could be a great place to play, but in this condition even on a beautiful day with no recent rain made this course incredibly overpriced.
