R National pace

Always great to play Reston National. Greens are coming back strong and other than the bunkers needing some maintenance and new sand the course was in good shape. Slow pace today with mainly 1 group holding up play. Noticed 2+ holes open when we crossed the street at 13 and no range was out to give some general pokes before it was to late and we waited a fair amount of time on each shot. Difficult to maintain a rhythm but it was a fun day on the course. Range still irons only due to the net damage from the last storm. Course pricing everywhere should have a direct tie to the green condition, they are coming back at reston but a lot of length variations.

Just ok

Over priced. No sand in bunkers, putting green was iffy and full group of lesson people monopolizing the green. Greens we're just ok, bumpy and slow. More a $60 course.

Reston National

Some good features on all 18 holes. A good challenge for a 6 handicapper off the black tees but a fair course and always in with a chance of making par. Bunkers were the only disappointment as they were in need of repair after a rainy spell. Clubhouse undergoing refurbishment so only snacks available from the pro shop. Call Uber eats to deliver there after 9 holes.

disappointed

I haven't played Reston in couple of years. I like the layout. The bunkers had little sand. The greens were slow and bumpy.

And you should be able to find your ball easily when it's just off the fairway. However, I recognize that recent rain may have interfered with mowing schedule.

Overpriced

Two stars because I like the layout of the course and staff and management were friendly. However, they're taking advantage of covid and charging a ridiculous price for this course. The conditions are poor: greens are slow and bumpy (two types of grass), tee boxes are a mess, traps are more dirt than sand. Club house is closed for remodeling which I don't ding them for as it will be a nice addition. However, for a similar price you can go 5-10 miles west and play nicer courses.

They are working on the greens due to issues with frost and they are slow until they get them fixed. The tee boxes do need a lot of work.

Pace of play

While I would normally give this course a five star review, the pace of play is starting to become an issue. Please have more course rangers (that can do something about) monitor the pace of play. The bag log of golfers waiting on holes as your group approaches creates unnecessary waiting.

Slow Pace but Fun Layout

I enjoyed the layout of the course which made for a fun and challenging day. However, for the price of a round, the course conditions were lacking. Fairways and rough were well maintained, but greens were bumpy and inconsistent from hole to hole. I knew this going in, but pace of play is really slow. 18 easily takes 5 hours with a cart.

Beverage cart stops at 3:30 on a weekend in 90 degree heat. Why??

Reston National doesn’t recognize VSGA?

Average course, slow play.

No club house, lots a slow hackers on the course. No marshals. Decemt shape, better once the greens recover from aeration.

Over priced for poor greens and bunkers

The condition of the greens and the bunkers are really bad considering the rate they charge for a round of golf. The greens have at least 2 different types of grass growing at different rates which makes them extremely bumpy and slow. Holing putts is extremely difficult. About 2/3 of the bunkers have little or no sand in them which makes getting up and down nearly impossible. In fairness, I think they're working on the greens but I'm not sure they can fix them very easily.
