Bristow Manor Golf Club

If you’re interested in a 6 hour round then here’s your spot. Course is fine.

Bristow Manor Golf Course is in excellent condition. Began round at 0840 and front nine greens were very receptive. Greens putted true. Temperature warmed up and we noticed the back nine greens were a little firmer and approach shots rolled out some. Fairways were green and the rough was manageable. Only critique I had were the sand traps—many had limited sand and were rather hard packed. Course staff was courteous and friendly. I recommend playing this course given its great condition.

The course conditions were amazing. This was my first round here since winter and the greens and fairways were perfect. Today for some reason there was not a starter or marshal and 1 group severely slowed down the pace of play. Still no port a johns anywhere on the course so drink wisely. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable round and I would recommend this course.

Course was in good shape…especially the greens. Probably won’t play it again. Staff was nice.

Always a good lie in the Zoysia fairways. Greens always in good condition. Bunkers always have sand. Rates are reasonable. Only complaint: club’s practice range used to have all grass tees. Now it alternates between grass and mats.

I play all over NOVA and I think the greens and fairways at Bristow are the best. Kudos to the Grounds staff! The bunkers need work but I know those are really expensive to fix/maintain. A few tee boxes need to be graded (Gold #3, #12, #13) to be flat. My one minor complaint was I had a 0730 tee time and the grill wasn't open to get breakfast and coffee. I don't know if that is by choice or simply staffing shortages but I would think you would want to be able to take care of the early tee times. Regardless, I will definitely be back to play Bristow. Remains a favorite!

Never disappointed when I play here. Fun links style course with greens that are fun and challenging.

Played here multiple times over the past 2 years. Pace of Play was probably the slowest its been. Maybe it was because of Father's Day but I feel the staff could speed things up here.

Tee Boxes could use some TLC.

Overall I love the course and would come back.

Greens, Tee Boxes, Rough in ok condition. Fairways have damage. Sand traps are awful. Starter was unhelpful and grumpy. $25 for my own cart is way overpriced.

Course is in good shape, especially the greens. Good to see ACTUAL sand in some of the bunkers as well.

The course was great, greens, tee boxes and fairways were excellent.

Just a couple of niggles.

I don't like playing without a warmup on the range. So I phoned before booking to check the range was open on the morning we were booking, and a lady answering the phone said it was.

We got there early to use the range and it was closed.

We were told that those calls sometimes go through to Golfnow and this how the misinformation can occur. So it sounds like a Golfnow problem.

Pace of play wasn't the fault of the course. We caught up with a foursome who insisted on playing from the back tees and 2 in the group could barely get the ball passed the ladies tees. They were all over the place. However I'm not sure how a course can manage groups that massively over estimate their firepower.

4.5 hours to get around with foursome..some waiting an last 5 holes but overall good pace. Late afternoon played as a single and felt like I owned the course. 3 hours to get around. Greens A+, fairways A+, layout. B+, sand traps C-. ...price..reasonable if not a bargain.
