Nice course, nice staff, and good price.

The course was in great shape and it was quite a fun round. As always, great chance to see wildlife too.

Enjoyable course

This is a great course. Long (almost 7,000 yards) from the tips, 6,500 from the white tees. Fun layout. Good conditions. Ok pace of play on weekend, great pace during the week. I'd return any time I'm in the area.

Park Golf Course with Lots of Wild Life

We had an enjoyable round. The course was long for ladies, so I did not score very well, but I enjoyed the greenness and the abundant wild life (mostly deer). Fairways had a lot of cut grass trimmings and rough was high; greens were significantly slower than I am used to, but the overall experience was positive.

Flat course in park like setting

Really nice public course. Very flat and easy to walk. Many tree lines holes, making hitting the fairways a premium. Course is near the Potomac river and stay green throughout the summer. Lots of wildlife in and around the course.

Great course for the Money

Great value for the money. Course was in great shape. Some of the course staff are unfriendly but does not effect the overall experience. Couse could also up grade the club house. However, for a regional park great place to paly.

Cool course. Wysiwyg

Greens were aireated a month ago and the sand and small holes are finally going away. I can't wait for the greens to get rolled to see if they roll true.

It's close and moderately priced so I have gone back. The rough was really thick, but I believe that's due to rain and time of year

Nice Course

Algonkian Golf Course is a challenging design in a beautiful setting. The staff is always friendly there. After a week with plenty of rain, the greens and fairways were in good shape, and the beautiful weather made for an enjoyable day. The deer, birds and even a fox were enjoying the course too.

Wait to play this one

Swampy and not yet in condition. The greenskeeper moved most of the white tees back. Fairways not good (grass way too tall). Give it a month or two before playing

Great value

Great value for the caliber of the course and condition. Greens and fairways in great shape, bunkers could use a little work. Very little elevation change but overall a very very lovely course and round. Reasonable prices in the pro shop and restaurant.

Didn't tell you it was cart path only when booking

The course was fine. It was fair to somewhat easy. The only negative thing was it was cart path only and I couldn't figure out why as we haven't received rain in this area in a long time. They should tell you in advance bc there is a lot of walking.

A couple of really pretty holes. Sharing the course with a ton of deer who are quite used to people

A pleasent course

I played Rasperry and Brambleton a few days earlier. I was shocked at Rasperry, disappointed at Brambleton about the

condition of the courses. Algokian was in an impressive shape. Hail to maintenance...

A slow some in front of us took the tempo out of the game. But that's another story.....

Beautiful location and very rustic

Fairways were fine but the greens were recently aerated which made every single chipping shot stop with a thud and a plume of sand kick up behind it. Forget about trying to putt with any reasonable accuracy, the ball would roll wildly as it bumped into all the aeration pits on the green...probably added 9 or more strokes to my card ....
