Bowling Green South Review

WE LOVE BOWLING GREEN SOUTH. We would honestly prefer it slightly over North just because we normally shoot a little better score-wise. We played on a perfect Sunday, 70 degrees, no wind, and no wait for groups in front of us. VERY GOOD value for the money. We all travel from about 1 hour away (DC and Frederick) because we really enjoy the course and hospitality. It's a great value for your money especially if you take advantage ahead of time on the HOT DEAL option. Course has a lot of holes where you can attack from the tee box (short par 4-s, short par 3-s, drivable par-4s) which makes it SUPER FUN. Overall 10/10 course for the money, pace of play, location, friendliness of staff.

Solid play until the green

Can’t blame the course or staff for proper maintenance being done to the course. The only reason it’s a 3 star is that the greens were aerated. Give it 2-3weeks and the course will be tip top shelf. I still enjoy playing Bowling Green.

Shenendoah valley is for golfers

Despite being a shorter and easier course, there’s something very charming about this course. Scoring well is pretty easy here but requires solid accuracy. A long drive will leave many short chips for second shot. Def top tier for value in northern va

Great course + Great value

This course was in great condition for the middle of December. The staff was friendly. We had our 7-year old golfing with us and everyone was great. The golf carts are state-of-the-art!

Good Affordable course. Not too crowded, but the course conditions weren’t the greatest, particularly the cart paths. The pro shop attendant and snack bar attendants were both friendly and polite. But the starter was not friendly or helpful whatsoever.

Good day for November

It was a nice November day. We enjoyed our round and considering it is November the course was in great condition. Just wish I could have played a little better. ;-)

Great course but...

This is a beautiful course - well maintained t-boxes, fairways and greens, and very picturesque in late fall. Golfers' experience could be improved by repairing the many parts of the cart-paths which were broken, damaged, and pot-holed. This is the first time my friend and I have used carts that can be 'forward motion disabled' by the onboard GPS. Once, I have to back-up the cart in the rough because it was 'outside' the marked area. Once, my friend had to back-up the cart on the fairway because of loss of GPS signal. These incidents caused loss rhythm and momentum of play. It is a terrible design to allow the GPS to disable the forward motion of the cart using pre-determined algorithms. Flashing a message on the display should suffice.

Had a great time

I had a tee time that was an hour after I arrived. They were able to get me on earlier with a couple. Course was in pretty good shape. Pace of play was 4:15 minutes. It felt a little slow, but not enough to be bothersome. Tee boxes are well used but I don’t mind moving back a club lengths to find some grass. I thought the greens were in pretty good shape. Just wish people were not so lazy or stupid and fix their ball marks. Would recommend this course.

Wonderful Course

This is a beautiful course in every possible way. There really isn't any reason to not like playing a round on this course. From the staff to the shape the course is in, it was a great day. There are so many courses around with lousy service, long rounds and flat out poor conditions that is was a breath of fresh air playing one that exceeded all expectations.
