Course in Terrible Shape
Extremely disappointed in my first experience of the year with Algonkian - ordinarily a decent course in good shape but my most recent round was comically bad. While I understand its early in the season it was borderline criminal to take money for the course in its current state. Every single fairway was patchy dead yellow grass. On Two holes they just randomly stuck a pin in the middle of the fairway because the greens were under repair. I understand maintenance work needs to be done on courses but they should be obligated to let you know before you book and its nearly Masters weekend the course needs to be in far better shape at this time of year (this wasn't a February round). I played 1757 the other week and the course was in 1000x better shape - I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere until reviews reflect that they have gotten the course back up to even minimal viable standards
4-20
No mowing.
Fairways were like fist rough cut.
Anything off of fairways you could lose a ball.
Greens were slower that anything.
Take care of the weeds.
It’s mid-late April and, even in the fairway, you still have a 50% chance of playing off weeds.
Pace was good today but always slower on the back nine, this is where the Marshall needs to concentrate.
Slow pace
The group in front of us had 2 clear holes ahead of them on the back nine. They would not let us play through and we never saw “player assistance “ to assist.
Thank you for your review. If you would like to speak with the Golf Course Manager about your experience, please call 703-450-4655 x105. -Algonkian Golf Management
Golf fan
First time playing this course. It is not a very difficult course. Most holes are straight forward. It is well maintained. I enjoyed playing this course. Very friendly staff.
Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon. -Algonkian Golf Management
Slow Pace and Unhelpful Marshall
Played the other day. We had a beginner player part of our group, but we still kept up pace of play. Group in front of us never saw the people playing ahead of them and were constantly hitting 3-4+ shots after the tee box(constantly topping the ball). Group ahead was over 250y ahead of us(confirmed on range finger(scope)). We let our beginner player hit first because he was not going to reach them, he hit a good shot a good 30 yards left and behind that group. They complained to the marshall that we hit into them. We told the marshall they were playing extremely slow and he just shut us down. If you have 5+ hours to play this is the place for you. The group also constantly would drag their feet on the green and when they walked off they sat in their cart right off the green and we couldn’t hit because we didn’t want them crying to the marshall again.
Thank you for your review and we're disappointed to hear of your experience with the slower group in front of you. Pace of play is important to our operation and we're always looking for ways to improve. Discussing your experience with the Golf Course Manager would be very helpful. If you would like to speak to them, please call (703) 450-4655 x105.
Nice Course Layout / Very Wet
Nice course w/ really nice surrounding propoerty. Only problem was course drainage. Had some decent rain about a week ago and most of the rough was still waterlogged and essentially mud. Fairways were well maintained though.
Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, we have had a very wet Spring so far which causes our course to remain wet well after the rain stops. It's still early in the growing season too which is why it takes a little longer for the course to drain. We do hope that you come back and play the course again when it warms up and dries out. Thanks again for your feedback! -Algonkian Golf Management
Decent course, rude staff
I’ve played this course a few times but the staff working this day were all very rude. The man at the counter and the starter were unnecessarily demeaning. I’ve never had this issue coming here before. All the other marshalls on the course were fine and polite.
Course is decent. Long and straight, no hills. Rough is thick and difficult.
Thank you for your review. We are very disappointed to learn of your experience. We take pride in providing great customer service and experiences. Our staff and volunteers undergo customer service training each year with an added focus on the customer experience. The course manager would like to speak with you further about your experience. Please contact him at 703-450-4655 x105.

Thank you for your review. Aerification is a necessary process to promote healthy turf. It should take about 2-3 weeks for the greens to fully heal. We hope to see you again soon. -Algonkian Golf Management
Check with pro shop before visiting.
I played at Algonkian couple of times and like the course structure, as well as the condition. But on the 25th of Mar, we had to play the front 9 twice despite it was clearly written 18holes in Golfnow. Also fairway grass was long, rough too long that I couldnt find my balls 2 times. It is a good course but dont visit before non season timing.
Thank you for your review. The reason why you had to play the same nine holes twice on March 25th was due to aerification of greens and tee boxes. The back nine was closed allowing for play only on the front nine. A notice was posted on our online tee time booking engine and the Algonkian GC app. We apologize for the inconvenience. It should take about 2-3 weeks to fully heal and we will begin regular fairway/rough mowing as the weather warms and the course dries. Thank you for playing and we hope to see you again soon. -Algonkian Golf Management.
Needs a clean up
The course needs some TLC. Broken twigs in abundance that should be tended to.
Thank you for your review. We apologize for any tree debris and/or twigs out on the course. We've lost several trees this Winter to high winds and storms. Our maintenance team is aware of the issues and working hard to keep up. Thanks again for playing and we hope to see you back soon! -Algonkian Golf Management

Good
Course was extremely wet which dictated cart path only protocol.
Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, we have experienced a lot of rain recently which has made the course very wet. We hope to see you back out soon! -Algonkian Golf Management
Thank you for your 5-star review! We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon! -Algonkian Golf Management
Thank you for your review. During the Winter, the grass is dormant and does not grow under a certain temperature. Thus, when we receive rainy weather for extended periods of time, it takes much longer for the course to dry out as compared to when it's the warmer season. It can take several days or weeks to fully dry from heavy rains.
Thanks for the feedback and we hope to see you back again soon. -Algonkian Golf Management

First time
This is a nice easy course with little elevation change. Would be a fine course to walk. Holes were pretty basic, straight shots. Only "tough" holes were ones in the back nine that had a creek going thru the middle that you had to navigate. Otherwise, a pretty easy and enjoyable course to play.
Thank you for your review and we're glad to hear you had an enjoyable experience! We look forward to seeing you again soon! -Algonkian Golf Management
