Golfer Reviews
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a positive review. We hope you enjoyed your round and will come back again soon.
Overall Solid public course
Greens were aerated but overall course was in good condition and pace was decent for a Saturday. Back 9 plays much shorter than front. First 4-5 holes felt like they were identical par 5/long par 4s (basically long/straight fairway with no deviation).
Thank you for taking the time to post your review. We appreciate the feedback and hope to see you back again soon!
We would like the opportunity to talk with you about your review. Please reach out to the course manager Ryan if you would like to discuss your experience further. rcorder@nvrpa.org
Great for the casual golfer
Course was in good condition. Layout is very flat layout with not much variation from hole to hole. Relatively easy course with not too much trouble as long as you keep it somewhat in play.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a positive review. We are glad you enjoyed your round and hope to see you back again soon!
Beware -- Better yet don't go
1. Greens were aerated and sanded but no one told us and no one cut the rate.
2. Beautiful spring day so they did all they could to make it play slooooow - allowed walkers on the course, made it cart path only although very little casual water mainly in traps and some rough.
3. Marshalls did not nothing to speed up my nearly 5 hour round.
4. Two cash registers inside but both taking tee time money; had to beg to get a drink at the turn.
5. There was OK parking (my mother taught me to say something nice.)
We apologize your experience was not what you had hoped for. If you would like to discuss your round further please feel free to reach out to the course manager so we can try to improve.
Easy course
Tee boxes and putting greens were recently repaired. Pace was excellent. 18 holes in 4 hours, 10 minutes

The Gonk
Another great round @ the Gonk. Frost delay was to be expected, golfers please don't get mad @ the course - frost delay protects it for future rounds! Pace was very good considering the lengthy delay.
The front 9 of the Gonk is flat and tree lined, and can play long. Back 9 is more open, a creek runs through it leading to some "decision golf" ...
Overall you can't beat $23 to walk $13.5 for 9 ... if you aren't walking, why aren't you? The Gonk is the most walkable course out there imo.
Staff are awesome.
When you play, fix your ball marks and be mindful of your pace!
Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your round and hope to see you back again soon!
The Gonk
The Gonk is a classic course. Front 9 is tree-lined, narrow at times and fairly straightforward. A creek running through the back 9 breaks up a few holes and creates some challenging decisions. The course plays a bit on the long side, and is generally in decent shape - although it doesn't drain well, sitting very close to the Potomac River. Excellent walking course, and you can't beat the walker price @ $23 or $13 for 9
Fore!
Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We value your feedback and are glad you enjoyed your round at Algonkian. Hope to see you back again soon!
Course closed due to wet conditions
To my big surprise this course was closed due to wet condition when I got there. There was no prior notice or any advance warning from the TeeOff APP. I tried many times to see if a refund or rescheduling would be possible but to no avail. The number posted on the APP is a non-working number!!! Very disappointed ......
Thank you for the great rating! If there is anything we are doing well you would like to share with us we would love to hear it.
