Who Made the Super So Mad At Us?

The course is generally in great shape and pace was great. That being said, I don’t know who made the super so mad, but pin placement on green slopes and roughs so thick it was genuinely hard to get the ball out made the round much more frustrating. I’m all for making the course tough, but it seemed more born out of laziness or carelessness than thoughtful decision.

The course should also wait until there is actually weather before sending the bev cart home instead of sending them home prematurely. Especially in a course with no ability to get water at the turn. Makes it really hard to stay hydrated on a hot, humid day. There was about 3 minutes of rain all afternoon, so not sure why that decision was made.

Greens are rolling really well and fairways in great shape, though!

Not worth the cost

Nice lay out and in good shape. For the higher price compared to similar tracks, it’s lacking in many way. Poor practice facility, no gps in the carts, no refreshment cart or anywhere to stop. The only good thing is, the higher prices must scare off many golfers during the week, because we rarely see many golfers when we play. My group would like to play more often, but it’s cost prohibitive.

Potomac Shores

Very nice course and layout. Good value. Challenging but not overly. Greens had been aerated.so hard to say how fast and a little rough. Rest of the course was nice. Get your drinks and snacks before you start as there is nothing on the course for all 18 except water and they all lacked cups

Love this course!

We play Potomac Shores every time we are in the area visiting family. The staff are friendly and the starters we have met have been terrific. The course layout is challenging but not extremely tough. If we lived in the area, this would be the course we would join.

Monday round

Love this course but the greens were still a little bumpy from the aerification 7/10 days prior to be charging 95 in my opinion.

Rough was chunky as well...

Still beats a day at work.

Overpriced

Beautiful layout. Course was in great shape despite the aerated greens. Range has crappy mats to hit off of. Practice green is too small. Saw cart girl once in 18 holes. There is no turn, so you can’t get beverages at the clubhouse. No video screens in the carts. Great course but overpriced.
