tee time was at 1:20....did not start playing until 1:50 due to not enough carts. course was in terrible shape, one of the worst I've ever played at. first time playing and do not plan on coming back
REALLY IN BAD CONDITION
Stay away , I wouldn’t play this course if it was free .
Decent course
Tee boxes are very difficult to place tees in on most of the front nine; the back nine is better in that regard. Fairways are pretty rough with some muddy, non playable spots. The greens are in pretty good shape and are challenging. Cart paths are very bad so take it slow or you will lose your bag off the back of the cart. Overall a decent experience for the price.
Best bang for your buck in DC
Solid course with solid staff, tee boxes are a little hard and the cart path is kinda nonexistent (so just go wherever you want that isn’t a green) but overall best bang for your buck in the area.
1st@Langston
Greens are in excellent condition but tough. Teebox in great shape with newly grown grass. Fairways need lots of work, with bleed areas. Carth paths need lots works.
Good for cost
Pace of play was good. But course needed some good TLC. Tee boxed were tough to put tees down on some holes but the course could be great with some maintenance.
Decent place for golf
Greens were challenging, fairways need some maintenance, riding was bumpy. Food was very reasonable and good. Overall had a fun morning.
Great course for the cost
Had a good time. Pace was good, course was clean. Overall good experience
First time at Langston
First round at Langston went pretty well. We tee'd off right at 7 AM. Cart Paths are basically rollercoaster rides, you can lose balls in the fairway because of tall grass, but OVERALL this is a pretty great value course. A few super challenging holes along the way as well.
