Thank You, Fairfax County
We are honored — and genuinely grateful — to share that Penderbrook Golf Club has been voted the Best Golf Course in Fairfax County in the 2026 FFXnow Readers’ Choice Awards.
Out of 517 votes cast across 14 nominated Fairfax County courses, Penderbrook led the field with 25.34% of the vote (131 votes) — nearly double the runner-up. That kind of support doesn’t come from a marketing budget. It comes from the golfers, families, tournament organizers, and neighbors who choose to spend their afternoons with us.
So before anything else: thank you.
What FFXnow Said About Us
From FFXnow’s Readers’ Choice recap:
“Conveniently located along Route 50 just north of Fair Oaks, this 18-hole golf course nonetheless feels like an escape with its expansive greens, 9 & Wine Golf Club and on-site pub. Tee times are open to the general public, and Penderbrook Golf Club is also a favorite for tournaments and other events.”
That’s exactly what we’ve been working to be — a course that’s easy to get to, still feels like a getaway, and welcomes everyone from first-timers to serious competitors.
