Good track

The course is fun to play. Enough challenges to keep one humble but opportunities to excel as well. Greens are a bit rough but it's January. At the golf now price it was an excellent value.

Great Winter Golf Day

Enjoyed a pretty, sunshiny day on the Woodlawn course - course was in good shape as wet as it has been and the greens were pretty quick. Staff was nice as they always are and I was very happy with the rate I got on the Golf Now app.

Fort Belvoir Woodlawn course

Course is good but due to cold temperatures it was Carr path only. I’m sure the course will improve as summer approaches. For the price I would recommend this course.

Super Slow Greens

The course was ok, but not worth $64.

The greens were super slow, the play was extremely slow for me. We started at 11:30 and finished at almost at 4:45.

On top of all that the back nine was and is always cart-path-only.

Great Classic Course

I played Gunston as a single on a cold day in December. I am civilian and did not realize I could play Ft. Belvoir (TIP: You need to use the Lieber gate on weekends and allow 10 extra mins for gate to course) If you like classic courses, this is fantastic. Very straightforward layout, but with lots of different lies, elevation changes, and you can also find trouble. It was very well run from clubhouse, starter, etc.

Pleasantly Suprised

Layout is great! And with just a little TLC the overall look and conditions could be much better at the Woodlawn 18. Noticeable difference between the Gunston course and Woodlawn must be attributed to one being for members or officers? 10 minutes from home, and 2.5 hr round worth every cent.

Give yourself more time to get there

The course is beautiful, the fairways are in a good shape, greens are not so good.

Read the information about using the Tulley gate.

You will need to park your car there and go to the Visitor Center to get a pass. It all takes time. You definitely need a government issued ID, then you fill out an application and wait to get your pass.

From there, there is a significant drive to the golf course with multiple stop lights and traffic. Ask for directions as your GPS May be not very helpful. After playing, I was able to exit through the closest gate on Beulah St, which was a relief.

Course Conditions

From tee box to green the course condition is sub standard. Grass is spotty and not grown out; more weeds than grass in many places. Over all the course does not appear to have recovered from last summer’s weather. The course also doesn’t show any evidence of aeratio

Course is struggling but the people are great.

I haven’t played here in years. It’s a nice course with very friendly people. The condition of the course is not great. Tee boxes need reseeding and the fairways are hard and flat. Greens are slow and in disrepair. Even with all of these problems, I still had a great round and that was due to the company. I will be going back.

Woodlawn Course

The front nine was in terrible condition. The greens are the worst I have ever played on a reputable golf course. The back nine was much better but still not great.

Granted, the weather is just turning nice but you would expect grounds keepers to be able to produce a better product.
