Bull Run Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
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.

Customer service below par today.
My friends and I have played here a bunch, and really like the course, but we had a tough experience during check in today. One of my playing partners paid for him and for me (a Birthday present for me) but was incorrectly placed with the wrong group who booked at a lower rate than we did. I brought his receipt into the pro shop assuming they would assign what he paid to our foursome. Instead, the guys working at the shop insisted on voiding his payment so they could charge me for our tee times at the higher rate. They made the mistake when they checked him in but decided to tell me the mistake was on him and it was my responsibility to correct. They could have chosen differently, as many businesses will when they are focused on customer retention and customer loyalty. Perhaps that mindset will return to Bull Run when the pandemic is behind us and the public has more choices for recreation.
Not worth the price
Maybe I had too high of expectations playing this course for the first time, but there are many other courses that offer a better experience for drastically less cost.
Was not bad by any stretch, just not at all worth the money.
Don’t expect kind greeting from the staff :)
First impression you get when you check in ~ not much but unexpected sarcastic demeanor from the staff who are not so enthusiastic about how they should serve people who pay to play. One person who knew how to greet players was this guy at the 1st tee at least. I do not recommend this course. Period
Great Sloping Views
Relatively wide fairways, gettable par 4s, and nice sand traps. Very scorable course and grass was lush. Some greens quick, some slow. Great conditions for fall golf and they didn't mind us playing the last par 5 18th in the dark.
Bull Run
Course was amazing. The lgreens were in great shape... go play Bull Run
Great course
Course was in great shape considering the tremendous amount of rain and heat over the summer. Greens rolled true and fast. Pace of play was good. Will definitely play here again.
Nice course it come on folks fix those ball marks on the greens.
Teed off at 224 - as scheduled. But finished at 645 after sun had set. Could have been faster. 6 people teeing off on 18 in front of us as we were trying to finish was puzzling that delayed us a lot. Course conditions were good. Definitely recommend. Many do not repair ball marks on the greens. I was fixing 4 - 6 per green as were my playing partners. Come on folks!
Great Condition Other Than Some Fringes Around the Greens
Just a nit pick on the fringes but compared to a number of courses in the area, Bull Run is in great shape! Fairways are in great shape as are the tee boxes and greens. This should be a must play for everyone in the DMV area!! Will continue to be on my must play list in at least 5 or 6 times a year.
Very nice course ; great course for autumn
Had a great experience at Bull Run. Pace of play on the back 9 was very slow. Finishing hole is pretty but it backs back badly.

Complete opposite of my experience. Highly doubt you were mistreated by staff, also people want to hear about conditions.
