Greens need work
Greens here are so furry! You could learn from Brambleton whose greens are quicker and roll true.
Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon! -Algonkian Golf Management

Grate value
Logw this course. In a quiet area along the Potomac, ezcept.fpe the flights landing at Dulles. So if you are a plane watcher, this course ia for.you. but overall, fantastic conditions for a public course. 4 hour round today.

Beautiful course but infested with water flies/insects
Beautiful course but infested with water flies/insects In every hole!
Thank you for your review. Although we strive to earn greater than a 3-star rating, we appreciate your feedback. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about bugs. During the Summer, our hot and humid weather and location next to the Potomac River provide us with many bugs such as mosquitos and gnats. As with any other wildlife, this is their habitat. We always encourage players to apply bug spray before coming out to play. If you’d like to discuss your experience, please contact the Golf Course Manager at 703-450-4655 x105.
Great day
Today was fantastic. Got around in 3.5 hours. Keep it up!
Thank you for your 5-star rating! We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again. -Algonkian Golf Management
Mid Summer Review
This course over the years just gets better and better. The course is in great shape (dry but that’s bc we haven’t had rain in a while). Rough was cut down nice, tee boxes and green were excellent! I know they are working on the range area but the need new turf mats, I was standing in craters! That the only bad thing I can say. I got a deal for $30, so I’m beyond happy with the course!
Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon! -Algonkian Golf Management
Keep Pace
My played11:40-12P. I arranged this outing for my birthday and all started well, but quickly became an annoyance when the Course Marshall was consistently hovering and harassing us..claiming that we needed to keep pace. This is false because my group was on pace and even playing scramble. The group in front of us are our friends and they let us know it was the group in front of them where one guy took multiple mulligans..but they weren’t bothered. Even at the midpoint, my friends went in to grab food and were told “you guys should take your food to go and play to keep pace”..whilst the group in front of them were sitting and eating in peace? Feels targeted. I just wanted to share my experience and disappointment. It’s a nice course, but hold the hovering and harassing, makes us very uncomfortable. Please train your staff to do better. Just because we are a group of women doesn’t mean we don’t know how to play. Your staff member/course mashall..whatever they are called kept harassing my group at least 5 times and stuck around to watch us play..no thank you.
We are disappointed to learn of your experience. At Algonkian Golf Course, we strive to provide excellent customer service and a great experience. As a public golf course, we aim to be welcoming to everyone. One of the members of our golf management staff reached out to either you or a member of your group to investigate this situation further. In order for us to improve, we need to use these situations as learning experiences and hearing your feedback is vital to that. If you'd like to speak about this further with the Golf Course Manager, please call 703-450-4655 x105. -Algonkian Golf Management
Excellent Condidtion
I thought the course was in excellent condition. While the greens were slow, they were very receptive and rolled true. Given the amount of play the course gets, I was shocked to see how great the greens were. The layout was not super difficult, but the course has plenty of challenges.
Thank you for your review and 5-star rating! We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon. -Algonkian Golf Management
Beautiful course wish I got what I paid for.
This is a great course. One thing that I can't stand is when they make every group a four some to get extra cash. If you're gonna do that charge less. I wanted to golf with my dad just us, that's why I paid for 2 people if I wanted to play with 4 I would've brought friends. $135 let me just play with my dad and keep to your tee time schedule cuz next time I'm walking off and demanding a refund.
Thank you for your review. As a public golf course, one of our goals is to create as much access to the course as possible. One of the ways we do this is by pairing players into foursomes. It is standard operating procedure for the course to pair players into groups of four, especially on busy days. If we did not do this, it would reduce the availability for other golfers to be able to play. You played on 6/15, which was a Saturday. Saturdays are very busy, which means it's especially important that we operate this way. Unfortunately, there are not enough tee times during the day to be able to accommodate starting only twosomes or singles. If you would like to speak further about your experience, please contact the golf course manager at 703-450-4655 x105.
Thank you for continuing to review the course. If there's anything you'd like to share on how we can improve, please reach out to the golf course manager at 703-450-4655 x105.

Rough Too Long
This is a great golf course to play. It the rough is way too high. You cannot find your ball 50% of the time in the rough. It needs to be cut shorter. I am not playing this course again until they can cut the rough shorter making it a better experience for the average golfer. I will also be placing this information all over social media until the problem is fixed!
Thank you for your review. Although we are disappointed in your rating, we appreciate your feedback. Our golf maintenance team is working hard to keep up with the rough but we agree it does get thick this time of the year. The warm and rainy weather really gets the rough growing quickly, however, with the dry stretch of weather coming, we will begin to see the rough thin out some. If you'd like to discuss your experience with the golf course manager, please call 703-450-4655 x105.
Fun course
The course is beautiful and lots of fun, the only thing I would recommend is that the cut the grass just a bit so balls can be found. It really hurts the pace of play as people spend too much time looking for their valls. Yes, I understand keep it in play and I do but many people are not professional and they want to have fun hitting nit wasting time looking..
Thank you for your review! Our golf maintenance team is hard at work each day keeping up with the rough but it can be pretty thick this time of the year. As we begin to see a drier stretch of weather, we'll see the thickness of the rough decrease. We appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again soon! -Algonkian Golf Management

Thank you for your review. The greens are mowed daily, however, there may be times they can feel a bit “furry” after recent rains. We are glad to hear your feedback about our sister course Brambleton’s greens. Algonkian’s and Brambleton’s green complexes are much different, leading to different playing conditions throughout the year. Soil type, grass species, weather, and many more factors play a role. Our golf maintenance team works tirelessly to maintain good playing conditions throughout the year, specifically on the greens. If you’d like to speak further about course conditions or anything else related to Algonkian, please contact the golf course manager at 703-450-4655 x105. Thanks again for continuing to play the course and posting your feedback. -Algonkian Golf Management
