7-Some
Conditions weren’t great but not bad at all for a muni. Greens were in good shape and rolled true. Decent layout, a little short. Biggest issue is there was a group of 7 playing two groups ahead of us. Really wish the staff would do something to prevent this as this really ruins the day for the rest of the groups on the course
GOLFPASS Non-benefit
I rarely if ever use GOLFPASS or GOLFNOW but I did when I saw the email featuring this course in my email. I've wanted to play this historic course for sometime and thought this would be a good opportunity. Little did I know that it would've been $15 cheaper if I'd just walked up on the day of play and paid regular price. Don't see the benefit of this app at this point.
Potential
Way better than going to east Potomac. One thing I love about both courses is they do a good job on the greens. This course has a ton of potential if they fixed up some of the fairways and cart path. These don’t bother me as long as the greens roll true, and they did.
Sadness
I just hope NLT starts to actually rehab this course because it has so much potential.
Sub par course conditions
The course is close proximity to DC. Course conditions are below average and pace of play was slow. Greens were tiny but rolled well. Challenging course overall but fair.
Enjoy the view of Anacostia river
Excellent hospitality by the staff; great value for $. I will play again here.
Urban Golf!
Busy environment: busses, metros, traffic, football practice, etc., etc.
Fairways in OK shape, greens in great shape considering location and amount of play!
Bad
For the price, an awful golfing experience. There are much better places in the area for the money
Poor shape
On several holes you find yourself alongside the driving range hoping not to get hit and hoping to find your ball among dozens of range balls. If ball is hit in fairway you might find it ... not in fairway, well good luck!!
Great Round in DC
This was a great in DC at a historical course. The pace of play was great (2 hrs 18 mins). It rained the night before and the course was not soggy. The green fees was at a great value compared to some of the semi-private courses.
