Lake Presidential Golf Club

Fairways and rough were in good condition. No need for cart path only rule considering they were hard as a rock. The bunkers had more water in them than the Chesapeake Bay and didn’t look like they were raked and groomed in months. The greens looked like London after the blitzkrieg with the amount of unfixed ball marks, poor hole replacements and patchy repair work. Maintenance staff purchasing beers in the pro shop before the round was a nice touch but gave insight to why some of the cut holes had flat edges. The beverage cart attendant was the only redeeming staff member I dealt with. Her attention to detail and willingness to make sure the customer had s great experience was worth the higher beer prices than other courses.

First time playing the course, and I really enjoyed it. I'm a scratch golfer, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who doesn't have at least a 200 yard carry. It is very much a 2nd shot golf course with a lot of intersecting creeks that you can't carry. Fairways are in great shape. Greens were running a little slow, but it had rained a lot and they obviously hadn't been able to mow them. The layout is really solid though. great use of the lake. You'll see a lot of water, but it doesn't really come into play that much. I definitely want to come back and play when it is a little more dry.

Very challenging course. I love it and play here often.

in recent years, I’ve noticed a significant drop in course management. The play has become much slower, and it is a rare that I see in Marshall driving the course.

I have also seen on several occasions, greens or torn up from cleats. So I do not know if metal cleats are allowed or if they are not being taken care of.

I am a 5 and stuggled to break 85. Its like TPC Avenel and the old Lake Arbor mated.

Front 9 is VERY difficult. Narrow fairways, thick rough and lots and lots of forced carries and hazards. 4 is really the only 'easy' hole on the front and it has deep bunkers. I played much better on the back 9 as I got conservative and there are two short par 4's and a short par 5. The only station the cart radio picked up was Bloomberg--how DC.

Id like to play in the fall with some firmer conditions---thought they over watered to deal with the heat. uBt routing and scenery is spectacular-esp for a course surrounded by houses. I saw a fox on 3.

pace of play was bad. cart wasnt prepped properly-no scorecard.

Course was in great condition from tees to green. Hard, challenging course but always fun to play.

Lake Presidential is one of my favorite courses in the DMV and often times you can’t beat the price.

If you time it right, you can play very quickly around that course. If you are unlucky however, you can be stuck behind groups because of poor pace of play.

The bones of the course are great but maintenance of the course could have been slightly better. Still a great round and value but room for improvement.

Greens were just punched and covered with sand, we were not informed of conditions prior to paying. Course was pretty dry yet cart path only all day, again if I had known before hand of these conditions I would have cancelled my round.

The day couldn't have been more perfect. Nice breeze, no one in front or behind us. Great time!!

When we played the golf course conditions were about the best I’ve seen on this course. Have played it many many times. Greens were smooth and very firm, like they were rolled recently.

What once was a great course has fallen. I am sick of Lake Presidential’s nonsense. Get a ranger and enforce pace of play or don’t stack 9 MINUTE tee times. There’s no way they can justify charging as much as they do. Conditions average at best. This course should be boycotted until they make significant changes. Potential is there the gem it once was but new management is needed.
