Return to Glory

I played Bristow Manor a lot when it first opened up in 1993. It was a great course for many years. It had some not so good years in between. It has returned to its former glory. The greens are in exceptional condition. The 7th hole is a world class par 4. It is one of the best in Northern Virginia. Absolutely the best value in Northern Virginia. Last but not lest the driving range has grass tees. I play it whenever I can now.

Great way to enjoy social distancing

Course was in great shape! The only delay was waiting on carts as they were literally turning them around as they got there. Pace was a tad slow but not too bad. Wish it wasn’t as expensive but was the best deal in the area.

Very Nice!

They have the course in very, very nice condition. Greens rolled beautifully. This is a hard course but very walkable and enjoyable. Holes 7 and 8 may be the toughest back-to-back holes in northern VA. Question: I see you have put money into the course and the clubhouse (great!) but what happened to the restroom on the back 9?

Another nice day at Bristow

Still one of my favorites. The greens are in beautiful condition as are the fairways. It'll be great when I can enjoy a post-round beer on the patio. If you can, book a round here, you won't be dissapointed.

Another fun round

Course is in great shape; the greens are firm and fast, and they are well taken care of by the crew. Fairways are slowly coming in, but that's not a problem. The greens are among the smoothest in the area. You'll enjoy your round out here. The rough around the greens is thick, but not unfair.

Needs a ranger

The back 9 specifically needs a ranger driving around to maintain pace of play. 4 groups on the same hile should never happen.

Good course. Zero social distancing.

When you share a cart (I walked) you can’t have social distancing. This is one of many VA courses that do this. Under normal conditions, it is a great course, very challenging, target golf links style and great fun.

playing firm and fast

Great course. Greens were sandy from recent aeration but still were lightning fast. Fairways have tons of roll to them. Traps were in good shape for this time of year. Practice range is excellent and there are 2 practice putting greens. Greens were so firm that even well stuck short irons ran out on the surface. If you are a good player, you'll really be challenged at this course.

playing firm and fast

We took a drive to Virginia which has open public courses and tried out the highly regarded Bristow Manor course. The ratings are accurate and this is a fabulous course and tough. The only reason I did not give a 5 star was the greens had been aerated and were sandy. Even still, I've never seen sandy greens so fast and firm in my life. This course challenges every part of your game.

The fairways are not real wide and they are extremely firm . You'll get tons of roll on well hit shots. The bunkers are well placed and its extremely rare to be able to hit a shot short that rolls onto the green. You'll need to hit high accurate shots as the greens do not hold anything that's not perfectly struck.

The tees are in excellent shape as are the sand traps. The holes have foam inside that allows you to putt the ball into the hole rather than playing to raised cups that many courses do.

The practice area is large and there are 2 practice putting greens. The staff is nice and the hot dogs are top notch.

If you do not live in VA and want to take a ride to a super course, go play Bristol Manor and have a great day.

I’ve seen this course on Golf now for years. I tried this week due to the course closings. I’ll be coming here even after things are back to normal. Nice track. Good yardage. Greens and fairways. Yes yes yes.
