Pleasant Valley Golf Club sits just south of Dulles airport, but the expansive layout, which is absent of homes, feels much more secluded. The parkland layout tumbles across a diverse landscape of rolling hills and grassy meadows covered with hardwood forests. There is plenty of diversity throughout the golf course with some holes that are bunker-less contrasting with the links holes that have Scottish-style bunkers. One of the most memorable holes is the par-5 fifth. After an uphill tee shot with a bunker on the right and a waste area on the left the second shot presents multiple choices. To the left you could take a risk with trees and a bunker but you could possibly be rewarded with a better angle for the third shot while the right side option will require a third shot over a large bunker to reach the green.

Great course for the money.

Nicely laid out and a challenge from the blue tees to say the least.

Pleasant valley not worth $69 in February

Pleasant valley has a nice layout however, this course is not worth $69 on the middle of February. I’m not sure that I Would pay $69 in the summer for this course. Some of the fairways have bear spots and puddles of water from poor drainage. Since the start of COVID courses have raised prices and winter rates appear to be a thing of the past.

Awful Conditions and Marshall

I usually don’t complain but played Pleasant Valley this morning and it was TERRIBLE. Not sure what they’ve done but the course was in AWFUL AWFUL shape for the price. I was ok with taking my disappointment in silence but when I simple asked the Marshall in the clubhouse about the conditions, his response was…”Well, you chose to play here”. Certainly won’t be going back there again. I recommend staying away from this course!

Fixing the cart paths next 3 weeks be warned

Only members knew that next 3 weeks or more the course is replacing the cart paths. You will have to play either the back 9 or the front 9. Pace of play was fine but would have played somewhere else if knew. Good course and friendly staff

Quite some time since last played course

A year and half since last played the course but it felt like one of the fun courses to play again. The weather cooperated and course condition played great. Could not say the same with how I played but with online rates on the tee off times, I’ll be watching for this course in the coming days. Kudos to Jack the starter, young but friendly and wasted no time sending group out to play.
