Great for mid-tier golfers
Not the nicest course in town, but it beat the reviews that I had read. Good conditions, fine price, and great mixture of holes. Perfect for irregular golfers
Rock Creek Golf
It was okay, basically par 3 course. I thought it was too much $$ for what you get.
A true artifact
Wildly overpriced at $36 on GolfNow. Should be $15 + cart. This is kind of a hand-made old course. Greens were slow but playable. Most everything else was marginal. It's just a place for golf nostalgia. Maybe you grew up around here and this is where you first played. Well get ready, it hasn't changed. Rumor has it Gil Hanse may be remodeling it. Don't hold your breath.
Trying out the DC courses
Staff was amazing. Great group of guys.
I feel like it’s a $25 course, at best.
Most greens were “ok”. Fairways were “fair” at best and the tee boxes were horrible.
For me it’s a one and done.
If DC put a little bit of money into the course it could be an amazing little gem of a course.
Good cousre
Layout of the course was good greens and fairways were in good shape tee box's as well good course. will be back for another great round.
Good for a first time golfer
Not the greatest course. Lots of construction. Greens weren’t mowed. No yard markers.
Yes the course needs work but I like it
It is hard to play and you should only use low-cost balls. If the balls go off the fairway it is in gold heaven. The park and wildlife are incredible. The hills are challenging. You will get a good workout. I play in the morning and I can take my time. I don't look for balls. The back nine should be finished soon I am told. Join me for some golf fun in the DC.
Shameful
It really is a shame that a golf course in the Nations Capital is in such poor shape. The tee box on hole six is hazardous because of the metal rods sticking out. I hope whatever renovations being made happen soon.
STARTER???
STARTER? Get off your REAR. You do not need to drive your cart 3 feet to get the cart keys and then back to the carts. Try to multi-task and learn customer service. Great course to stretch your back and your legs. Do not expect much from the course or the STARTER/RANGER. The rest of the staff are hardworking and very pleasant.
