Carved from Stafford County's rolling, emerald green hills, Augustine Golf Club plays across a scenic landscape abundant with mature pines and hardwoods. The pristine white bunkers and the lush fairways contrast nicely with the trees. The course conveniently sits just 30 miles from the Washington Beltway. In 2011 when the golf course was acquired by Raspberry Golf Management, who are responsible for several courses in the area, Augustine underwent major renovations that increased its playability. The greens, fairways, rough, bunkers, and tee boxes were all redone. The layout offers a challenge but is gentle enough for beginners to approach with confidence. Included in a round of golf at Augustine are range balls and unlimited use of the driving range, which has different targets and a large putting green.

Incredible Value

I played with a friend and it was both of our first time here. We were paired up with a father/son duo that had played here numerous times, which helped with some of the layout quirks. Not the longest course I've ever played as I hardly ever needed to hit long approach shots, save for the very reachable par 5's (playing from the blues). The rough was really long though, to the point that balls only one yard out of the fairway necessitated a search party. We found at least a dozen balls in the rough, not like we were scouring the woods. The greens rolled very well, if anything a little fast, but that's hardly a terrible thing. All in all, the course was in great shape, especially for the price. The employees were as friendly as you could hope for, especially the guys working the cart barn and the drink cart gal. We're already planning our return trip.

Think course management when playing at Augustine

You must think course management when playing at Augustine. The fairways were nice but some of the greens need work. Considering the time of the year, the course is great condition.

Dogs everywhere

Lots of little dog legs makes this a nice little challenge. Roughs where deep and you would walk right by your ball(if you could even find it). Found others that lost their's, so it evened out. The fairways seemed a little hard...a few club bounce stingers.
All the sand traps and bunkers where hard packed. I finally got the hint and pulled my ball. The greens saved the day...smooth!
They give you free tees and bag of balls to warm-up, a nice little touch.

Course recently aerated

It was a beautiful day ! Unfortunately, the course was in poor condition. They had just aerated the day before and had done a poor job of it. Additionally, they had spread so much sand on the greens it made reading a putt impossible. I was also unhappy with the amount of grass clippings in the fairway, you were forced to clean your ball on every shot. The GM did offer us a discount on our next round, unlikely since it was a two hour drive for us. My advice to you is to call and ask about course conditions first. We got it as a Hot Deal, and aeration was not advertised.

I am an avid golfer, and with that understand when courses need to aerify greens to keep is healthy. It sounds like this golfer came on the wrong time. It is a great course, friendly staff, and back on my regular rotation. Thank you to the new owners for getting this back in shape.

Enjoyable Course

Beautiful course, very enjoyable round for bogey golfers from the white tees. Not long, but does involve some planning & accurate shots. Would definitely return & recommend. Excellent value for the price.

Not sure what course you are describing. I played this at least 20 times in 2014 and it was great. The group running this now have done a great job of bringing this course back to life. Need to give it another try.

Brilliant Course

Well manicured, helpful and friendly staff. Best bunkers I have seen in years. Tough hole placements make shorter holes tricky. Highest recommendation and plan to play again myself.

Nice course, but a little expensive.

Too expensive for junior golfers. I have two sons, 12 and 14 years old. Augustine wants $35 each for them to play. Other courses in the area that are just as nice as Augustine charge $20. (Forest Green). With golfers on the decline, the high prices for juniors to play golf will only hurt the future of the golfing industry.

Grass Fix

They are still working on the grass around the greens. Laid new sod on multiple holes but it doesn't seem to be taking root. Need to hire a dog to keep the birds off the holes surrounding their lake as there is p00p everywhere.

Augustine from the Whites

Great course but you better have a 225 yard 3 Wood in the bag. The driver can get you in trouble on several holes so pay attention to yardages and where you might go long into trouble!

Nice course Staff not very friendly. Happen to be. Wedding that day range closed. I seemed to be a nuisance to them. All they wanted was to get me off the first tee. The drive from Alexandria is always a nightmare with traffic.

Maybe the nicest course in NoVA

Played Augustine for the first time. The whole experience is first rate from the included warm up balls, to the personality of the starter and the clubhouse menu. The course is gorgeous and in good, but not great shape. A lot of work was going on during the round, but that'a fair for a Wednesday. I will be back.

Awesome Experience

The weather was perfect, the course has been miraculously resurrected, and the staff was very pleasant. I was lucky to get the first tee time, 0700, and the starter let me go as a single. The new management has restored Augustine to it's original splendor. Awesome job! The course is in great condition and has the right combination of doglegs, distance, traps, trees, and water.

Nice coarse

I played here with my dad and brother while down for my brothers graduation at the marine base and all I can say is wow. Very nice staff, range balls are included as well as carts. They also gave us a little book that had the yardages to the hazards, greens as well as Layup. If I'm ever back in the area I will be going back. My dad and brother both agreed that this is one of the nicest if not the nicest courses we have played at. Starter stated that it was one of the best kept secrets in the area and we agree.

Poor course conditions

I have played this course many times and usually absolutely love it. The layout is fantastic and challenging and the maintenance is usually amazing.

The course was in horrible shape with plenty of greens damage due to softness of surface, erosion around most sloped areas was bad, tee boxes were in rough shape. Overall it looks as though this summer has really hurt the course.

For the money, this course is not currently in good enough shape.
