Good course to play. It could be an awesome course in the future, but it is in need of some maintenance.
First, the good. The scenery, elevation changes, and nature (deer, birds, etc...) are awesome. I agree with other recent reviews that the bones of this course are very good. It can be challenging and fun to play.
Now, the needs improvement part. I understand it is summer, but other courses are in better conditions with the same weather and past heat. Some areas of the fairways and some greens are in terrible shape. The green on # 2 has very little grass. The greens on # 1 and # 2 have piles of dirt from the wasps nest. The fairways and greens appear dry, and there are a lot of ball bounce and not a lot of sticking the landing here on the greens.
I would definitely play it again and would recommend you give it a try. I would pay more for improved maintenance.

I'm an avid golfer and have enjoyed dozens of rounds at Pohick in the past. I am fully aware that courses are struggling this year and understand the need to aerate greens etc. I usually have no problems with this and it's part of keeping the courses in shape all year and this is the first review I've ever left. However I've never seen conditions like this and a course charging full price. Golfer's beware tee boxes are gone. Most greens are all sand no grass. Will look forward to a few months down the road when it's worth the price of admission again and I'll update this review.

Great golf course. Definitely worth the price. Good pro shop, nice folks working there. All around go experience. Cart girls absent. Very well manicured sand traps. Videos from play thru of hole 6,7, and 18.

We recently had the pleasure of having a business meeting golfing! This golf course is the most affordable one we have found in the Virginia area and the course is well taken care of! I would certainly recommend a visit if it’s your first time or you just trying to get a round in.

Awesome course and awesome people. Superintendent is a quality guy. Give this place a chance- they’re doing their best to make it prime again.
