Pretty Good

Herndon Centennial was definitely a good course for the money. While not visually blowing anyone away, it was a well kept course that challenges most levels of play while still able to provide getable birdie chances. Semi-tight fairways force players to be relatively consistent off the tee but the overall short yardage of the course gives players options to club down and be more accurate. Pace of play was pretty normal for a course in Northern Virginia and I would play again in the future.

Generally decent conditions but slow pace of play

Highlights

- tee boxes generally in poor condition.

- greens and fairways in great condition

- rough was thick

- pace of play was awful. Tees off at 7:30 and took almost 5 hours. Absurd.

Good muni

Course is in good shape, but if anywhere ever needed a Marshall, this is the place. Seems like the rule of thumb for 4-somes is to wait until the hole is clear before teeing off. So, about 30-45min slower than it should be.
