Thursday Golf

Fairways are still a bit rough (hard, dry and inconsistent grass) . Greens are range from good to excellent and pretty consistent hole to hole.

Not Bad

Greens are good to very good; fairways are a bit rough and hard; off fairways is terrible...long grass and very difficult to find ball especially with high number of hidden fairways. Great value with very good restaurant/bar.

Not bad but not good

Still early in the season so fairways are horrible as is the fringe and rough. Pace of play was horrible as a twosome behind two foursomes. The foursome could have let us through as we were waiting almost 5 minutes per shot. Two hours not a bad pace for a foursome but deadly for a twosome as normally 1.5 hours is good. No Marshall to help us out but after nine we squeaked past the group I front of us and the front foursome offered to let us play through so we did. Course still needs time to grow in.

Decent course

We played Gunston. Greens are
rolling nicely. Fairways are patchy. Sand traps are mud. The layout is nice with a variety of holes. The value is pretty solid.

What a headache

First, there are so many different gates to get into the fort and no one seems to know which one to use. Second, even though I had multiple IDs, in addition to.my drivers license they would only accept an ORIGINAL passport or Birth certificate. I had photos of them to show but i dont carry them around with me. Third, why donthey need to be so rude and unfriendly. Lastly, and most importantly, Golf Now would not let me cancel even though my Tee time wasnt for another hour. Lost money.

Great military base course

Course is taken care of well. It's nowhere close to the best course in the DC area, but for the price, it is definitely better than alternatives. You won't be disappointed spending $50.

Greens

The greens are in great shape, but the fairways and tee boxes were in bad condition. I got a great deal at GN.

YOU MUST GET SECURITY CLEARANCE FIRST

I’m an idiot and didn’t know that it you need to get security clearance to Enter the base. If you scroll on this app to the part where it says notes it will tell you this. So basically I lost the money and couldn’t get it back.

Beautiful course with unfriendly staff

It is a very nice course with a great layout. Very rude and unorganized staff at the clubhouse (not the bar). Greens were in ok condition but the bunkers are in poor conditions.

Week day Great pace of play

Enjoyed playing the Woodlawn 18 hole course.. pace of play was very good with a final playing time 3:15 minutes. Greens in great shape. Fairways were pretty dry with little rain.
Will continue to play Woodlawn, and Gunston courses.
