Golf in Alexandria

Alexandria is a historic independent city on the Potomac River, one of the oldest European-American settlements in the Washington metropolitan area, with a preserved eighteenth-century streetscape that has made Old Town one of Virginia's most visited historic districts. The city's proximity to Washington, its waterfront position on the Potomac, and its dense federal employment base create a prosperous urban community with golf access across the northern Virginia system. Pinecrest Golf Course serves the Fairfax County community adjacent to the city. The broader Virginia community's investment in recreational infrastructure — golf courses, parks, and outdoor amenities — reflects the quality-of-life standards that have made the state consistently one of America's most desirable places to live and work.
