Pace of Play is Terrible on the Weekend
The course is great, the staff is great, the food is great…the only issue is the walkers on the course. The course is walkable however, walkers should not be allowed to walk on the weekends. There should be a better job managing the tee times for walkers. Pace of play is terrible
Great course, but…
I love this course. So much history and roots in the community. But the pace of play this past weekend was really bad. Luckily they let us just start on the back 9 which elevated some the wait.
First Time Out This Season
This is a legendary course in the DMV. The course was crowded and that’s what I expected for a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Even still the pace was good and surprisingly very few to no backups. Also, it was WALKING ONLY following a day of rain.
They absolutely have to improve the quality of the fairways.
And please post golf course etiquette because a young lady was hit in the head by an errant golf shot…and no one answered FORE!!!
Love this course
I play here all the time. A challenging course, friendly staff and great food. For a public course these are some of the best greens around. Fairways could use just a touch of love. Overall a great course. Plus for the money, you can’t beat it.
Love this course
For the price it's worth even though the front isn't on the best shape but the back 9 will make up for it and will bring you back like it did for me. Worth it.
Extremely disappointed
This was my first time here because a friend invited me to play there. Pro shop staff was beyond friendly and got bright out. I really like that they have multiple practice greens and the driving range (although it’s a good bit away) is equipped with Toptracer technology which is a plus. Besides that…this was a horrible experience. Let’s start with the trash, yes literal trash EVERYWHERE! It looked like a dump. Trying to manuver through the empty beer cans and the goose poop in various stages of decay (which was a 1:1 ratio to the grass) was a lot. And back to the driving range. It’s right next to hole 10. There in s no fence/net separating the two. There were hundreds of ball all over the range. And the 10th fairway. They use Callaway balls on the range and I play chrome tour. It was impossible to find my tee shot.
Layout was good not a whole lot of narrow fairways with tons of undulating fairways and greens. I’m not sure I’ll be back.
Bang for your buck
Super good deal on golf now. Course is relatively well kept but it’s definitely worth what you’re paying. Very forgiving fairways. The back 9 is beautiful
Great course
This is a great course. Easy on the front 9 for beginners, tight tree lined back 9 that is more challenging. Value is great, staff is great. I play here all the time.
That's great.
I chose a walking course...
Cart would be good too.
It wasn't done exceptionally well, but I was satisfied with the price. it's at DC.
Langston in dc
Decent shape and amenities for a city course
Clubhouse superintendent Ben F was excellent!
Good guy taught you history of place
Could use some upgraded rental clubs
Fairways are a little bare greens not too bad
Good driving range and practice areas
Must play
I was really surprised with the golf course, the front nine is okay but when you get to the back nine wow, great shape and the scenery is incredible and most of all the price, definitely coming back.
