| Robert Trent Jones Golf Club -- Unforgettable! |
| Review by: JPM |
I played RTJ at Lake Manassas a year ago and it was an unforgettable experience. Playing the course is easily one of the two most memorable golf experiences I've had in the Metro area (the other was Caves Valley outside of Baltimore). The course is difficult, yet in esquisite condition. Bring your 'A' game and enjoy! |

I played this course several times back in 1984-85, when I was attending Virginia Tech and I loved it! While it is hilly, it is fair. Back then, when I was younger, we used to walk it, so if you are in shape, it's not that bad. No long treks from green to the next tee. I remember the course itself being fair to us 15 handicappers, especially if you go easy on the lost ball rules!
The course is cut out of a forest on a mountain, so a big part of the experience is the scenery. At a couple of places you can see for miles in all directions, across the tops of several ridges. You are on top of the Appalachian Mtns. Incredible!
From the info here, it looks like it is still a good value, cost-wise. If you are in Blacksburg, and need to kill an afternoon, you can do a lot worse than heading out to Pembroke to play this course. |
