Reston National Golf Course

STAY AWAY, The course is in horrible shape. The fairways are over grown, the cart path has potholes, the tee boxes are horrible and they want $80 to play it. I was shocked at how bad the course itself was. The staff was very friendly and the hot dog at the turn was good though, if there is a silver lining.

The course was in very good condition except for bunkers, which was understandable. Greens in good shape, fairways had very few bare spots.

Reston National challenges the novice player. That course is a great example of thinking your way around the course.

Lots of crab grass growth and poor tee boxes. Greens are nice, but very thick. I will probably play here again but if the conditions don’t improve I’m likely to find somewhere else.

The course has a great layout and varied difficulty. Just needs to be kept up better. I imagine that’s tough with all the bad weather.

Fairways and greens are in fantastic shape. Greens roll very true. Only complaint is that the tee boxes are in pretty bad shape, and the bunkers dont drain well- all were flooded and unplayable today. Staff is very friendly, especially the guy working the counter at the snack bar. Pace used to be an issue here, but I’ve played here three times this year and the pace has been perfect. Overall a fun and fair but challenging layout.

The course itself is okay - but their practice facilities are awful. Their range is closed 3 times a day for maintenance and an additional hour on the Wednesday I went. Of the 3 times that I went, the range was closed for all or part of my warm up time every round. The practice green was constantly taken by the junior academy, and their chipping green not only rolls like a fairway but didn't have holes.

I recommend the course, but they must step up their practice facilites.

I like this course. Plenty of trees, though wide enough fairways. Not much water. Several tee options. Hilly but walkable.

Course was in good shape with the exception of the sand traps which weren't in great shape.

Tee times were 10 minutes apart which is better than the 8 minute intervals they used on previous visits.

New management appears to have let many of the previous staff go. New staff didn’t handle tee sheet well. Very inexperienced and was disappointed the course was not being kept up to the excellent conditions of the past. Bunkers were unplayable and greens hadn’t been mowed and rolled as before. Who is running the kitchen now? New person behind the counter seemed clueless. They also raised the cost of green fees and seem to have done away with twilight rates. After 20 years of playing Reston National I’m going to go elsewhere for better service and better conditions. So long!

Greens and fairways are in good shape, but bunkers are atrocious. General layout is pretty straight forward but the thing that really sets this one apart is the value. $94 to play a morning round is a complete travesty. Asked to get a small bucket of balls, and was told they ran out at 11am. Embarrassing
