First Time Playing

This course was perfect

My first time playing at Meadows Farms and I was very impressed. The course was in great condition and the holes were amazing. I played the island green, waterfall, and baseball holes. All very unique and fun to play. I definitely recommend this course and will be back when I head back up to Virginia next summer.

Great simple course

Course is short and very playable. Greens are very receptive despite the recent hot weather. There are a couple of gimmicky holes but they aren't "stupid gimmicky." For the price, condition, and staff I'll continue to come back from time to time.

Had a Great time!

I enjoyed a wonderful golfing experience. The 9 AM tee time was great as the course was not crowded and I could take a mulligan on a shot or two. I really like the layout of the two nines I played. However, I was a little confused on following the yellow or blue arrows to be on the right nine. A roving marshall came along and helped me get to the correct hole on the correct course. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Always fun to play

The course has greened up and is in the best shape that I have seen in years, the greens are in excellent shape. Kudos to Josh and the maintenance team for doing such a good job, always fun to play here.

Best Bang For Your Buck!

I play Meadows at least once a week. Every time I play the course just keeps on getting better and better. The changes/clean-up of the course are outstanding and it really opened-up the course and made it look much cleaner. The fairways are great and the greens are in very good shape. You can't beat the price compared to other surrounding courses. I'll definitely keep on going to Meadows. Keep up the great work guys!

Not as unique as it used to be

I previously reviewed this course years ago when I first played there. Back then, there was a lot more charm to the course itself than the changes that have been made in the past couple of years.

For instance, they have filled sodded the "island" Par 3 on Waterfall that used to be completely surrounded by bunkers and I thought it was a fun challenge. Likewise, they've filled in the baseball diamond on the par 3 on Longest and now the only clue you have that you're teeing off on a baseball field is the dilapidated wall beyond the green.

Lastly, and most disappointingly, you used to be able to drive your cart up behind the waterfall on the par 3 but instead of making repairs to the tunnel, they simply walled it off.

I know these seem like mild complaints, but these are three examples of what I felt made Meadow Farms fun and interesting. Now, all that's left of note is the Par 6, and they don't even use the back tee box anymore.

I can't complain too much, after all I only paid $35 this time and the people are still friendly. But living an hour and a half away now, it's not worth the drive to me anymore.

Well maintained course

Very well designed course for higher handicap golfers like me with occasional challenges for better golfers. First three holes on Longest Nine were a real test. Course conditions were good. Roughs were punitive, so stay in the fairways. Worth the trip to Orange County.

Don't miss this unique course

Meadows is one of my favorite. Must play the Water Fall Hole. Worth the trip. Staff is excellent and have a lot of fun tournaments on the weekends which is what the Fredericksburg area has been missing for the golfer that wants to compete a little bit.

Hi Marvin, thank you for taking the time to review our course. We're very sorry to hear that during your recent round with us you didn't experience top quality conditions. Although we strive to provide consistent customer service and course conditions; due to the seasonality of our Bermuda grass, several areas are still in the transition phase and haven't quite fully developed. For this reason, we continue to offer winter rates and we're very happy to see that you rated our staff friendliness and value 4 out of 5 stars. Thanks again for your feedback, Marvin. As our course continues to improve in the coming weeks and months, we hope you'll choose to come back and see us!

Gret golf expereince

Everything about this course is first rate. We had a group of 12 and we had a great time. It took almost 2 hours to get to the course but everyone agreed they would go back again. The staff was extremely friendly and very accommodating. The fairways were like a carpet, the ball sat up beautifully. We played all 3 nines and they were all different and fun to play. A great day was had by all!

What a deal (HOT DEAL)

Tees and fairways were in great shape, greens took a beating from the heat wave but staff has at least moved pins to a good part of the green. Will be back again!
