This course is always well manicured.

Bristol always has beautiful fairways and greens.Bunkers we’re wet after a day of rain yet the course didn’t invoke cart path only. Good job. Greens rolled true, as always. Whenever I want/need a fun day on a well kept course at a reasonable price, I choose Bristow Manor!

Golf course played great

Have not played this course for a year or two. But found it to be surprisingly pristine and in great shape. Loved playing the course from tees to greens. Would like to come back if green fees are within my financial reach. Definitely will consider the next time I play.

Good value, bunkers need work

Played 8/7. Bristow is always one of the better 'value' courses in the area and I appreciate many of the recent changes (i.e. practice area, clubhouse upgrades, etc.). The course, and especially the greens, are typically in great shape, especially for the amount of play they get. The BUNKERS on the other hand continue to be a TRAVESTY. When they're dry, they're straight up clay/rocks. After some rain? Unraked/Instaponds. Fix. The. Bunkers. Also, if you're not going to have a beverage cart, please put out some water stations. Thx.

Good conditions but ...

Greens. fairways and most first cut of rough were in excellent condition. Sand traps need work--half were filled with water. Others were hard, rocky dirt. Main complaint is the scorecard is old and not accurate. There are NO orange tees totaling 5,700 yards on this course, which is what I wanted to play. The black tees at 6,300 are too long for me, but the silver tees at 5,200 are too short. I played the silver, but won't return if this course isn't going to have a set of tees closer to 6,000. After the round, I asked the golf shop person on duty about the tees, and he said to his knowledge the course has never had orange tees. 1,100 yards between tee sets is too much of a gap.

Solid condition

Course is in great shape, front 9 is a swirling challenge and the back 9 opens up a bit more. I would play again and definitely recommend.

Fun to play

The course is in good condition, though greens were slower than expected. The layout makes you think: good course management is the key to good scoring. We’ll surely be back soon.

Very fun course

This place definitely beat my expectations. Great pace of play, fairways were flawless, and the greens were in great shape. Pretty cool location as well. If you get a chance, its worth the round. My round was around 730am.

Totally worth the drive from closer to DC to get out here and play where nobody is going slow and the cart girl made 4 passes. So great.
