Twin Lakes - Oaks Course

Joined a friend to play on a cart path only day. Play was slow. After waiting on every shot, every hole, along comes a marshall stating that the group behind us had complaints about having to wait. There were 3 groups on the course in front of us. A foursome, a single, another foursome, my group of three, followed by the complaining three. We were all at the mercy of the first group. Out of nowhere the Marshall drives past my group to speak to complainers. Without accessing the situation to find the issue, he drives to our group and goes past the white guy in our group and comes to me talking about slow play. We would have had to hit into the group in front of us on every shot to be any closer. Based on other reviews this is a common theme from black players snd this course. Go elsewhere, unless you like supporting people with racial profiling issues. I’ve played for over 30 years and regularly play in under 4 hours at tougher courses. No excuse for this. Avoid

Very easy walking course, great views and excellent conditions

Twin Lakes courses are always my favorite places to play golf either by myself or meeting with new friends. The courses are well maintained all year long, and the Lakes and Oaks courses offer a good variety of handicap levels to challenge yourself with. I enjoy playing both courses very much, although I tend to alternate between the two depending on the whether and season.

Beautiful fall day. Course in good condition for time of year and that it is public. Longer and tighter fairways for this beginner. Lots of hard turns 100 yards from hole (not dog legs, they are turns). A little hilly but more level lies than Lakes course. Staff were fine (helpful, did their job and got us off on time). Very nice afternoon of golf

Good course; I reviewed at more length below. On second visit of the year, surprised that fairways were not recently mowed, rough definitely not mowed, tee boxes not so good. Most greens were in good shape.

Overplay is taking its toll on many courses, but Oaks was in rough shape.

I was very disappointed on the condition of the course. The tee boxes were very chewed up and there were bare or very wet spots in the fairway. Even with a Hot Deal on Golf Now the total cost of round with cart was more than $55.00. Most of the greens were in good shape but a few had bare spots They were however most true even though they were slow. It's actually too early in the year for the course to be in this shape. Its saddened me about the condition because I really enjoyed the layout and the friendliness of the staff. It was my first time to play here and I don't believe I will return. I have generally played once or twice a week since moving to the DMV area and the cost just doesn't correlate to the conditions or of competing courses in the area.

It has been a while since my last visit to this place. Since then, the course condition has definitely deteriorated, which includes bare spots on the green, dusty fairways, and the tee box feels like I am at the beach.

And, there are definitely more players pushing carts now. This may be from the golf course charging extras for the power cart now (imo).

The overall condition of the course was good, but there were multiple holes with tons of mud (lots of rain the previous two weeks). For example, I hit the middle right of the fairway and my ball was in about four inches of mud. They allowed a single who kept pushing up against our foursome but he wouldn’t play through us. I always try to repair my pitch mark plus an additional three, but there were too many pitch marks to count on most greens. It would help if we could get all our new golf friends to maintain some basic golf etiquette on their pitch marks.
