GolfWow

Got there a little early thinking, hoping for a practice facility and walked into a putting green with only sticks in the ground and a 3 nets with a mat to warm up on. Then to have there starter ask me 4 times 20 minutes before our tee time was if they were going to show up. Then to be charged for a cart fee even though it wasn’t disclosed on golf now or admittedly maybe i didn’t read it but with have me pay all or nothing is preferred. Course lay out was fun. It’s short and narrow so no real need to driver. Greens were in rough shape majority had intermittent grass so had to play for bumps and jumps. Having to pay a total of $70 for this course is not worth it with other of same value being much more enjoyable. If you can get this course for $35 then it’s a gem. Just make sure to be on time and all of your foursome to be there or be prepared to be rushed off to the course.

Solid track for the price

While some parts of the course is under construction, still a great value. I would definitely go back.

Course was in very poor condition not to mention 2 holes were closed . 1 hole was shortened from a 5 to 3 par. The 15 other holes were in very poor condition. Finally you are charged full price to play. Never again

Great for the price

Easy to play and diverse layout. Part of the course is under construction so 2 holes are closed and a P5 converted to a P3. They let you play a couple extra holes to make up for the closed ones. Staff is great! Pace is fine and conditions are ok for the time of year.

COURSE UNDER RENOVATION

Not worth paying more than $30 IMO. Hole 5 & 6 closed. Hole 7 par 5 turns into a short par 3. Greens need a lot of work...

Nice layout, good condition

I play a lot of golf on Fairfax County courses but had avoided Greendale due to poor reviews I’d seen online. I played there yesterday for the first time and was pleasantly surprised! Course conditions were excellent and the layout is fun. I liked it a lot and will return.

Nice staff/bad course

I like the location, and the staff was wonderful. But the course condition was pretty bad. The greens were terrible. I only ended up playing 9 (paid for 18), but after seeing the front, didn't want to chance walking the back in hopes that the conditions would improve. I played 3 or so years ago, and now I remember why I never think to play here more often. Sad, because the people who run the course are super nice.

I hate Greendale

Greendale is a joke. The tee boxes are dirt, the greens are tragic looking, the staff are pathetic gatekeepers of a dying golf course. Save your money, go elsewhere.

I hate this place.

This place is atrocious. The staff is obnoxious. They favor regulars who pretend to own the course. The green look to have leprosy. The tee boxes are mostly dirt. The staff is obsessed with pace of play. Also, crazy price to play such a garbage course.

Fine for a muni

Course had just been aerated, so wouldn’t be fair to judge fairways and greens. Course is fun, but definitely narrow. Many overhanging trees were able to reach out and grab or deflect my ball. 😁

Terrible Greens

I have played Greendale over 50 times and the condition of the greens yesterday was the worse I’ve ever experienced. All 18 greens were atrocious!

Not worth the price

For the state of this course, it should be priced as a cheaper round and further discounted from there. We went last year post heat wave, so the condition was excusable, I thought. Nope. Burnt, lumpy greens invested with hornets burrowed in the ground, fairways nearly indistinguishable from the rough, disorganized pro shop, no range, no cups on putting green. Do yourself a favor and drive a little further for a cheaper course or a similarly priced one in much, MUCH better shape.

Falling apart

The conditions of the greens are the worst I have ever played in the DMV area. From the dead spots to the insect infestation made putting extremely painful. We had an early tee time and it still took 4 hours to play and waited a bunch of holes. So disappointing.
