Golf Courses Near Gainesville, VA
Located 35 miles from Washington, D.C., Gainesville, Virginia may be best known for its shopping megapolis—Virginia Gateway—but it also has a reputation for very good golf. While courses such as Heritage Hunt Club and the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville are private, you can make a tee time—and score a Hot Deal—at Stonewall Golf Club at Lake Manassas, a highly rated public layout known for its sculpted bunkers and string of lakeside holes. In nearby Nokesville, Prince William Golf Club is an up-and-down course that players of all skill levels can enjoy. Two nearby standouts are Pleasant Valley Golf Club, an expansive parkland playing field just south of Dulles Airport, and Westfields Golf Club, a surprisingly wide, tree-lined layout in Clifton that perennially appears on Golf Advisor’s list of Virginia’s top courses. Every one of these courses offers opportunities for Hot Deal tee times.
Gainesville is a highly developed suburb of Washington. You can conveniently take I-66 right into D.C. to enjoy all of the attractions of the nation’s capital. For many people, Gainesville is a shopping destination. Virginia Gateway is more than an outdoor mall—it features movie theaters, restaurants, and bars as well 1.3 million square feet of merchant space for its 100+ stores. Gainesville also attracts history buffs and Civil War tourists thanks to its proximity to Manassas Battlefield Park and Brawner Farm Interpretive Center. Conway Robinson State Forest is a splendid nature retreat laden with wildflowers and mature oaks and other trees. It’s a nice, tranquil spot, but wouldn’t you really rather arrange your nature immersion experience with a tee time at one of the local golf courses?
