Laurel Hill Golf Club has some of the best conditions of any public course in the area, which is why it is popular amongst the locals. It is hard to believe that the club sits where the DC Department of Corrections facility at Lorton used to be located. The layout has a traditional design, but unlike older golf courses it runs a lengthy 7,102 yards from the back tees. The greens are lightning fast and undulating. There is defined contouring throughout the course, which allows for some interesting holes. Although the fairways are wide open they are still punishing towards errant shots. There are dramatic elevation changes throughout the golf course, making a flat lie nearly impossible to find. The course provides a formidable test for even the most seasoned players.

The green have spots where it looks like mold might be trying to grow?! But other than that and a 4:45 minute play it was great! I like to keep it at 4 hours.

Great public venue

Laurel Hill is a very good course with lots of variety. The fairways are wide but the course plays long. This course can be windy and tricky with club selection. Expensive if you don’t get a deal.

Excellent course

Great piece of property and well designed with great variety of holes and greensites

Greens and fairways had been aerified within past week or two, but the staff did such an excellent clean job of aerifying and topdressing rolling etc that it didnt really have much effect on putting

Plenty of tee choices to challenge golfers of all abilities and while some greensites are heavily bunkered or carry over water,,, the approaches directly in front of green on longer holes almost allways allow for a ball to roll up or for a short shot to have a relatively easy up and down

Staff were very friendly and professional. Whole place seems outstanding without being pretentious

Great day except for the single they paired us with.

You ever wonder why people play golf alone? When you get paired with them you won't need to wonder. My boy and I had a great day out except for the guy who thought it was Sunday at Augusta with us.

Good for late season

Greens still a challenge. Just fertilized so I assume they’ll get slower into NIt velvet. The new sprinkler install is ongoing but only a slight nuisance. Still has some of the best tee shot panoramic Jews in NOVA. Play it if you haven’t.

My Favorite Course

Laurel Hill is such a great course: big, long, wide fairways with strategic trouble and fantastic greens. Normally in great shape, this time was no exception. The greens were immaculate. The layout is both fun and challenging; a lot of doglegs and elevation changes to make it interesting and challenging to play. Driving range included is a nice perk. Course personnel (pro shop and starters are pleasant and helpful. Everything made for a great golfing experience.

Tough Track

Tough but fair and well worth playing. This course gets a lot of play and apparently not many golfers like fixing divots, besides that the tee boxes need a little TLC 👍

Beautiful and well maintained golf course. It is largely hidden from view of the surrounding housing and is very challenging. Good value if playing off peak hours
