Augustine Golf Club

I have played Augustine 5 or 6 times this summer and I keep going back because the course is well maintained and challenging yet fun. It's also a better value (40 dollars for Sunday at 0830) than the other courses in the area. The practice facility includes a full sized range and the balls are provided at no extra charge. The putting green is an accurate representation of the greens on the course. There is no separate chipping area. On the course, players who are long off the tee will have to shape shots or hit into small windows to stay in play, which makes the course a lot of fun. The greens are large and undulating, so a two-putt is not guaranteed even for good putters. Guarded greens and flags also create a lot of high risk/reward approach shots that make the course interesting. The course website has a hole by hole feature so you can see what you're getting into before you go.

Course is a challenging 18 holes. Many doglegs throughout. Coused is immersed in a woodland setting with some homes, but houses are not up close to the playing area. The greens were immaculate for mid November. Staff was excellent to work with, clubs were loaded onto cart right in the parking lot and cleaned directly afterward as you putt out on the 18th green. Had a great time.

This is the second time I have taken a group here in the past two weeks. Course is wonderful but pace of play was terrible this past round. Yes, it was an unusually nice day for this time of year and they did have a minor frost delay but it only slipped tee times by one group. There was never a marshall on the course and many times there were up to 4 groups on a hole. Obviously, that makes for a somewhat aggravating round of golf.

Pro Shop folks were very nice and check-in was quick and easy. Range and range balls were available and nice bennie to have included in Green Fees. Starter was funny and very friendly. If I had a NEGATIVE it was the slow play of the 2 2-somes and 1 4-some in front of us. Had to wait on too many holes and there was no Ranger on the course!!! We putted in the dark (5:30ish) on 18; teed off at 12:12pm. Overall, a good day!!!

go play it! and have fun.....super rates right now...

I played this course after it initially opened and it was among the best in the area. At each tee box you would think to yourself that this must be the signature hole...they all looked that good. Plenty of challenge without being unfair and with fast and undulating greens. Then it went downhill and became literally unplayable. Recently it has been restored. I played it in the spring and it was not quite back to form. This last time, in the fall, it is very close to being back. A truly beautiful course with a decent range and putting area and good clubhouse. It played quickly as there were few others out that day. Definitely worth the price of admission.

Played this course several times and it was in great shape but the last 2 times I played it the greens were diseased. Look forward to layng it again n the near future

Took a little getting used to the course, not your run of the mill layout. Has a lot of fun holes, course was in very good shape and greens rolled true at a good pace. Would definitely go back, got discounted tee time thru golfnow, so really enjoyed the round.

Paid $30 through Golf Now. Fair price. It is a great layout. Conditions need attention. Zero serivce. Unwelcoming staff. NO MARSHALLING! On a Thursday afternoon, there were three groups on the course, and at one point all three were on the shortest par 3 on the course! The type of people who play $30 courses have no etiquette. Not their fault they just do not know golf. This is a frequent problem at Augustine yet mentioning it to the staff is a complete waste of time. They once told my group, "oh, they are nice. Ask and they will let you through." That is NOT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Speaking to management does you no better.

Cart path needs some attention in spots. Need more ball cleaners at tee boxes

I remember Augustine as one of the first upscale public courses in the area, and looked forward to playing there after an absence of many years.
I was encouraged by the sign touting "bringing Augustine back to premier status", as well as by the first two holes, which are classics.
The course design is solid, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and pace of play was good even though it was cart path only.
Greens were much slower than I would have expected, and couldn't have been stimping above 8.
Overall, good experience, but not at the level of the "premier status" of many of the other upscale public courses in the area.

One of the best courses I have played in Virginia. For the price you get alot. Great service,great greens, overall very impressed.

The staff is immediately accomodating, the wait for your tt occurrs between the driving range and the practice green making warmup seamless on your way to the 1st tee-you'll need it. The front nine is difficult, you need to think through every shot. It eases up on the back. Houses are visible on the course but they never intrude, great design. The course suffered over the past few years but now is in great shape.

New Ownership, additional maintenance required on greens. New owner has made good stride in the upkeep but more work needed. Tough course.

A turely well maintained course maincured greens and tight cut fairways rough is unforgiving

the view on several holes was breath taking. wow. course is coming around now after being abused in the past. give the greens another year or two and they should be awesome also.
