Could be a lot better

Course is in fair condition. For the price there are several courses nearby that offer better value. Food service is minimal, at best, and there did not appear to ever be a beverage cart on the course all summer.

On several occasions, the staff has been disinterested or even blatantly rude - especially the starters. Played there 4-5 times this year but probably won’t be back.

Average course

Beautiful Fall day. Had a 12:30 tee time and did not tee off until 12:50. Very slow play all day. Course conditions were fair. Tee boxes all banged up, fairways were ok and greens were pretty good but very hard. Some bunkers were ok and others were like concrete. This is why I only play here once in a blue moon.

Heading into fall golf…..

….and the staff has got the course in tip top shape. Greens have all healed well from aeration. Always a consistent product here.

Never disappoints

Played here day after the city amateur. Front nine was being aerated but the back nine conditions were close to tournament conditions with fast and smooth greens. The course can be fun and get table from the whites but down right diabolical from the tips.

Worst golf experience

1. I arrived at 12:00 PM for a 12:40 PM tee time. because there was a tournament that morning, no carts were ready, but the lady at the pro-shop kept saying 'you'll be fine'. At 12:40 PM, 12:30 PM group and I were waiting for a cart, which were coming one by one every 5-8 minutes. My group ended up teeing off at 1PM.

2. I play every weekend, summer or winter, all over DMV area, and this was worst wait time between each shot. Never lost sight of the team in front of us or behind us.

3. For the first time ever in my life, I only played 15 out of 18 holes. 16th hole is a par 3, which is usually slower. But when we finished 15, there was a team teeing off at 16, and three groups in the que behind them. I have never seen anything like that before. We were already well over four hours at that point, and we figured it would take more than two hours to clear hole 16, 17, and 18.

4. Course is fine... nothing crazy, not beautiful or difficult, just there. Better than courses like East Potomac, Penderbrook, or Herndon Centenial. Probably similar to Algonkian? Worst than Potomac Shores, Stone Wall, Laurel Hill, Bristow, Bull Run, Blue Ridge, Maryland National, Twin Lakes, or Blue Mash.

5. Never playing here again. This was my first time but 12:30 PM group was a local and he said expect a 6-hour play even before we tee'd off at hole 1.
