Situated in the foothills of Bull Run Mountain, Bull Run Golf Club has a beautiful woodland setting that is conveniently located just minutes from many historic Civil War sites. The course plays through mature forests and across lush, grassy meadows. There are also several ponds that come into play throughout. The expansive layout covers over 450 acres, allowing plenty of room for the native flora and fauna. The risk-reward layout has plenty of challenges for more daring hitters but it also offers wide fairways that are molded to steer the ball towards the center. The landing areas are generous but they are often framed by grassy hollows, bunkers, or mature trees. Bull Run is challenging, but playable, which is why the club is considered one of the best golf courses in the D.C. area.

Fun course

Course was in great shape with smooth fast greens. Had 2 hr frost delay but bar had free cookies to ease the disappointment.

Very nice warm up area with chipping/bunker green and putting green. Range balls included in price.

Always enjoy playing this course as the layout is challenging but fair.

Course needs maintenance

The staff were nice and attentive. The course, especially the tee boxes were in bad shape. Very little grass on the tees and if there was grass it was mixed with weeds. Overpriced. I would expect somewhere around 90.00 to play here during peak times. I like the layout of the course however. I will try again later in the season if I can find a deal to reassess.

Long day

The staff failed to keep the pace of play. Golfers were allowed to Play extremely slow. Open holes existed in front of us.

The course conditions are probably the worst that I have ever seen t this facility. Greens were aerated a little late leading to almost Impossible, putting conditions

I love this layout

I’m a huge fan of this course, the greens were very nice and fast compared to past rounds. Felt the course conditions were great based on being the end on winter.

Very wet cart path only

Not only was it soggy in many places, but there were many dirt turds along the fairway.

Would have been nice to know they had ariated recently and it was so soggy as we might not have chosen to 0lay there!

missing tee markers

Every hole didn't have the tee markers. It would been better if the Guys in front of us move little faster.

The course charged the range balls because we made the tee time through the Golf Now.

Great Value for the Cost

Got a hot deal through Golf now, and thoroughly enjoyed the round. Several very muddy, wet spots on many holes, but those could not be helped given the recent weather. Greens and fairways looked as if players were not repairing ball marks and divots. So, it was my pleasure to fix those things when/if I could. Pace of play slowed considerably on the back 9, with no Marshall activity addressing the issue.

Love this course but the greens were pretty slow. 5 hour round which is not great but I will be back when the weather gets cooler and they charge less...
