Favorite course in Virginia!

Brian is the new golf pro at this golf course and he is absolutely amazing! His customer service and the customer service from his entire team is amazing! He is always there to greet us while letting us know about all the wonderful things he is doing for the course and it shows! The golf course is immaculate…… you feel like you’re hitting off carpet in the fairway and the greens are well-maintained and easy to putt on! This is my favorite course in Virginia…… my brother and I play here every chance we get! The restaurant really good too- we always stop there after the first nine and then after we finish playing! Thank you so much for all you do to make this course so absolutely wonderful! we will be back soon. Thanks again for being so wonderful!

Worth the drive

I absolutely love this course. It was only my second time there but they all remembered me. I'm always treated as if I'm a member. The fairways and greens are in excellent condition. The may flies are starting to come out but aren't too bad currently. Relaxing wide open course that still gives some challenges.

LOVED IT!!!!!

What a nice surprise. The course is a very well maintained. High end feel without the pretentiousness, Putting on bent grass is absolutely the best.

Diamond in the rough

Hobbs hole is my favorite golf course. Links feel with some tree lined holes. Greens were in great shape, a bit speedy, but rolled very true. Loves this place.

So Much Fun

If I lived closer, I'd be a member. This course is so much fun to play. Some holes are very golfer friendly, while others challenge your shot-making skills. Overall, a great course for beginners, as well as mid-to-low handicap players. Greens are in great shape and getting better. Just need a little more greening/growth in the fairways. This course is always in great shape and that is what keeps me driving 1 1/2 hours to play there. Staff is friendly and the restaurant is better than most. Hope to get 6-8 rounds in there before fall. Highly recommend this course.

Incompetence

Imagine driving 2 hours to this course for your confirmed tee time, only to have the PGA pro tell you upon arrival, “We have a tournament today. There was a mistake, you shouldn’t have been able to make a tee time.”

We were so excited to have cousins golf weekend, and instead the new Hobbes pro (a month into his tenure) canceled our tee time in our face (a tee time I booked through the course website a week in advance), and still had the audacity to offer us “half off” the next day for wasting a day of our lives.

This pro was so arrogant and pompous about the whole thing, taking no responsibility. He wouldn’t even let us use the range. I feel sorry that this great facility will likely be ruined over time by an incompetent fool.

If you ever plan on playing here, call in advance to triple check (I even received a confirmation email 24 hours in advance of my time).

Always fun

1st surprise was how busy Hobbs was on Tuesday. Range was on the very good mats but hopefully soon back on grass. Practice green in great shape. 1,2 and 3 were CPO as they had a few wet areas. Fairways were surprisingly thin as was some of the light rough around greens. Bunkers need some work, most were unraked which made them inconsistent and much tougher to control shots. Greens were rolling well, fast but not overly speedy. The splotchy colors made a bit more difficult to read but still rolled well. Somewhat slow as the round was over 4 hrs. We stopped in after for the great food and drink and the wonderful folk who work there. With some grass growth and bunker attention, Hobbs will be back to its normal excellent self.

Cold Day at Hobbs Hole

Made the drive from Stafford, and Bowling Green, with my playng partner and returned to our favored course after a 5-6 week layoff (and, it showed). Weather was sunny, windy and 43 degrees. Bundled up, we proceeded to play 18 in just over 3 hours. Course was busy, but not crowded. Fairways and rough still dormant and traps were kinda wet, but playable. Lots of tight lies on the fairway. Greens were firm, but rolled nicely. Always a fun experience. Can't wait for the course to green up and play in the superior conditions it is capable of. Troy and staff always make you feel welcome. Will return often
