Prince William Golf Club

I was excited to play here given that I live in DC and it had such good reviews. It was incredibly underwhelming after a 45 minute drive to the boonies.

Conditions: The course was swamped in several areas with lumpy greens. Tee boxes were ok and the rough provided some good challenges in certain areas.

Layout: Incredibly boring. Almost every hole is a par 4 with open fairways and limited obstructions to the green (only two par 5's and back to back on the back 9).

Staff: So meh - walked in and one sole worker was sitting at a chair and just stared at me for a solid 10 seconds until I said "i'm here for a tee time." He grudgingly got up and barked about not riding off the cart path before handing me a receipt without so much as a please or thank you before sitting back down and folding his arms. Ridiculous.

Pace of play: The course is incredibly popular and so you can expect to wait a while to tee off if you're not in a foursome.

Overall: Won't come back.

Love the course, love the staff. It’s short but very challenging. It’s very easy to let your score get away from you if you try to overpower the course. The greens are immaculately kept, fast and true.

I thought the deal could save 20% but the hidden cart fee almost $10, did not expect that. The course used to let kids play for free but now have to pay the regular green fee, disappointing!

Prince William GC is my go to golf course, I played here move than once a month. The staffs are friendly, the course is in good condition and the pace of play is fast maybe because I normally play on Mondays.

Course was wet. Bunkers had nice sand. No hot dogs

Good value for the 'hot deal' decent shape, staff is friendly

The overall condition of the course wasn't too bad for late March but the greens are faster than concrete and about as hard. Almost 6 hours to play a relatively short par 70 course. The tee times are stacked 10 minutes apart, which wouldn't be bad if the Marshalls did their jobs. Also if you're going to allow people to walk the course the tee times should be spaced more. We waited 10 minutes or more past our tee time because the group in front of us had 3 people in carts and 2 walking. The group in front of them must've been two groups that decided to play together because there were 7 in the group! Marshall was out all day and never broke them up. There was a family of 6, 2 parents and 4 kids. The kids were throwing a ball around the course in between shots. Horrible time management. I'm a 30 handicap so if the pace is too slow for me that's bad. No ball washers, no bathrooms on the course, no signage on holes or directions on cart paths. Trash everywhere on the course. We saw the Marshall drive by discarded chip bags and beer cans multiple times. We picked up what we could as we played. People leaving cigarette butts on the greens and in bunkers. I will never play here again.
