On-Course Staff were awful
Golf was good, course in great shape. Rangers were all over us on the back nine for some reason. We tee’d off at 1:40 and finished at 6:00, 4 hour and 20 minute round. We had to wait constantly on the front 9 as there were several slow groups in front of us. They all left after the front.
Regardless, the behavior of the rangers on the back nine, who, for whatever reason, felt it was their duty to hound us and ruin the pace for our group. So much so, that I’d prefer to wait a while before I play there again.
First, I would like to thank you for your review and giving us a 4-star rating despite having an issue with our marshals. Algonkian, along with most other golf courses, has seen an incredible amount of play over the last several years as the golf industry has exploded in popularity. With this boom, we have seen a record number of rounds as well as many new golfers playing the course. The negative to this is that sometimes pace of play can be an issue. Our marshals are trained to monitor pace of play and intervene, when necessary, which can include asking a group to pick up their pace if they’re playing slower than the set pace.
However, when enforcing pace of play, our marshals are trained to do this in the friendliest and most professional manner possible. In no way should any player ever feel that an employee or volunteer of Algonkian Golf Course is “hounding” or “ruining” their round or experience. As the golf course manager, I do not take a rating of “Poor” under the Friendliness category lightly and would like to speak with you further about this situation. As a NOVA Parks golf course, we strive to provide the best experience for our customers.
If you would like to discuss this further, please give me a call at 703-450-4655 ext. 105.

The Promised Land
Algonkian is a true gem. Please keep it that way. The land is hallowed grounds and the course is a delight. Only recommendation would be for some of the volunteer starters to just chill a little bit, this isn't Augusta!!!

Excellent Conditions
Don't play often here. Today, course was in great shape, including tee, fairways, and greens. Feels like a pretty long course, even from the whites. The first cut of rough is pretty darn thick, and with recent rain combined with early morning sprinklers was pretty challenging. Traps all appeared to be nicely groomed as well. With both a military and senior discount, course value was strong. The club house attendant and both starters were very nice and engaging. A great day on the links.

Looking good
Good early spring conditions. Fairways in great shape. Rough around greens still patchy. The greens were recently aerated so putting was a challenge. Should be great in a week or two.
Thank you for your review! The course is progressing nicely from aerification and we look forward to providing great course conditions all season long. Thanks for playing!
Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you back soon!
Nice course, but punched greens
I liked the course very much. The greens were aerated about 2 weeks ago and are still bumpy so putting was not much fun. I’d give it three weeks or so and it’ll be great. Staff was very friendly. pace of play was typical for weekend golf…about 4 hrs and 10 mins to play the round. Lots of whitetail deer roaming around.
Thank you for your review! Aerification is an unfortunate, but necessary process that we complete in the Spring and Fall. The greens have been recovering well and like you mentioned, will be in great shape in a few weeks. Thanks for playing and we hope to see you again soon!
Thank you for your 5-star review! We are proud to have earned this rating from you. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
