Greens need attention
Every green was in severe disrepair and made putting nearly impossible. Never seen it this bad - needs help.
Course maintenance needs help
I have played this course twice, and each time the fairways had massive dirt patches, bunkers were overgrown, and the greens are not maintained well. Greens had more sand than bunkers at some points. This round, hole 16 had a 3inch deep divot about the size of my foot. Will not be returning and will not recommend.
Course is in rough shape
Decent value for the money, but the course was in terrible condition. Every single green was at least 50% dead, so you’re putting on packed brown dirt that rolls like concrete but also have to navigate the thick patches of actual grass on the green. We literally burst out laughing after most putts. Additionally, the rough (and in places, the fairway) were so overgrown with crabgrass that it was nearly impossible to find your ball unless you stepped on it. What is the greenskeeper here doing? Is Fort Belvoir really paying someone to keep the course in this condition? At a minimum, they need to give a discount and alert players prior to paying that the greens are essentially unplayable.
Love the layout
I played Woodlawn even though it was supposed to be Gunston. 🤷♂️ The leaves on the fairways and greens were horrible on holes # 1,3,4,7. Totally unplayable! When I made the tee time I had visions of years past, but hoped it would be better this time - not! I lost 2 balls on #3, 1 each on #’s 4&5. And all were hit on the fairway or just a foot or two into the rough off the fairway. I wouldn’t waste my $$ on the Belvoir courses until Fall is far in the rear view mirror. Aside from this, the greens that were clean of leaves were beautiful!
New Golfer
Excellent challenging course. Played Woodlawn and it was in great shape. Holes are wide but challenging. I enjoyed it on a hot day.
Review of Ft. Belvoir, Gunston course
Bunkers were inconsistent, with some having no sand. Golf course was very hilly, which was fine. Greens were in decent, but not great, condition. Fairways were a bit dry; not sure if they have irrigation. Most of the tees were not level and had little or no grass. I played as a single and had no one ahead of me the entire round, so I have no complaints about the pace of play. I played with one of the Golfnow $30 discount rounds and consider the experience to be a good value, at that price. Warning: the golf course in on the Ft. Belvoir post, so you have to stop at the main gate visitor's center to obtain a pass that is good for six weeks. You should allow an extra 30 minutes to do this. I almost missed my tee time.
Always a great round at Ft Belvoir!!
still a beginner so I have no idea how to actually rate the course conditions. But the day was absolutely picture perfect and we always top a round at the grill. Drinks by Dawn are always perfect!!! and so is the food!!
