Augustine Golf Club

By no means am I a pro golfer or any good but this course was great and fun. We were the first group off the tee for the day and the Marshall let us know the details on the course and gave us fair warning the fairways are Bermuda grass and haven’t fully grown in. The greens were pristine as well. We found the only downfall being that the food and refreshment didn’t open till 8 and our tee time was 0754. The cart girl got to us at 1015 and that was the only time. Other than that, we enjoyed our time out.

The entire course was weeds. Literally. Crabgrass to be exact. There is no way they will ever get this place back into shape, short of tearing it all up and resodding the whole course. Greens were good though. If you don't mind debris everywhere. Also, it's a very difficult driving course. Bring your driving iron if you can.

Being new to the area I’m willing to “ go the extra mile “ in search of new and challenging courses in the DC area (I recently relocated from So Cal). Shot in the dark here as there’s numerous options closer but am overall glad I did. Weekday round and course was virtually empty.Greens were in great shape although super firm and course itself was generally in B+ condition. I’m really looking forward to the return of rakes returning to all facilities...I can’t really fairly assess conditions although some courses still seem to maintain this feature better than others.All and all I had a good experience and will return in the future

I wrote a longer review last fall, and was pleased with what I saw. Yesterday, I was dismayed: rough and tee boxes had not been mowed and were all weeds, fairways looked OK but were pretty bare. The greens were in pretty good shape throughout. Bunkers were good as well

We were behind a very slow foursome and there was no effort by the starter/marshal to move them along, so it made a very slow round.

The weekend price, at $80, was too high for the conditions.

The greens were in bad shape, as was the course . The pace of play was slow with no ranger to speed the pace of place. For $59 dollars i will go elsewhere.

Simply put, not worth full price in the shape it’s in.

Fairways, bunkers, tee box, greens are all below average condition!! Waste of money to play here

I don't play Augustine often and was expecting poor conditions based on recent reviews. While a couple of greens had some areas roped off, they had mostly healed and were in good shape, as were the bunkers. With the fairways going to winter mode, hard to judge them.

The round started poorly, with a glacial pace over the first 6-7 holes, but broke free later in the round, resulting in 4 1/2 hours overall, not too bad.

The layout is strong, as with most Jacobsen courses. With a slope +/-140, depending on tees, there's plenty of trouble, but -- apart from No. 2-- no hole seems too difficult. There are a lot of semi-blind shots, meaning the hole unfolds gradually, but you have a good sense of where to hit it. For example, No. 10 feeds downhill and to the right; a well-placed drive will bounce right just out of sight but perfectly in position for an approach to the green. Good mix of Par 3's. No. 1 opens with a split fairway and No. 2 is an extremely intimidating double-water-carry long Par 4, but after that, it's OK.

While somewhat hilly and routed through a subdivision, it's a perfectly reasonably course to walk.

On a perfect day, we only completed 14 holes in 5.5 hours! NEVER going back on a weekend for sure.

Many of the greens have roped off under repair areas, bunkers full of mud and water with a mixture of grasses and weeds in the fairways. Cart paths need to be repaired but are just roped off or poorly patched. In its current condition this course is not worth half what they are charging for green fees. I was once a member here and was sad to see how bad the conditions were at Augustine GC.

I drove an hour south to play here and the course was in terrible shape. We payed over 85$ for our round and it didn’t even include range balls. The front nine was being aerated and they did not tell us or offer a discount. The tee boxes were so muddy we had to back up ten feet just not to slip.

I understand it rains and they can’t control everything but I’m the shape the course was in, it was grossly overpriced.

No shot I make that long of a trip again for this course.

Good course! Front nine very difficult for average player!! Back is more forgiving! Bring lots of balls if your a bogey player!
