The Timbers at Troy

People don’t repair ball marks and staff obviously doesn’t either. Dead spots all over the course and even on fringes and greens. Some tee boxes are all sand and no grass. Great course but just worth the dollar at this moment.

I wouldn’t say it was worth the money. Difficult layout which they pride themselves on according to the starter. Pace of play is pretty slow but I’m guessing that’s due to the layout and difficulty. A lot of grassy weeds slowly popping up on greens and fairways. Greens were super slow. The course gets a ton of play.

I have played this course in a 9 hole league the past 2 years, so I’m familiar with the course. I’ve been on travel for a month and decided to invite a friend to play on Thu (7/25). The course had been making good progress in its journey back to playability the past couple years, but I was really shocked at how much it’s regressed in just a month. Very disappointed for my friend, an avid golfer who recently moved into the area and was looking for a regular course close to home. The tee boxes are chopped up and filled with divot repair mix, the fairways are missing grass everywhere, and the greens are browned out, but still rolled semi-decently. I do appreciate the new bunkers and cart path replacements, so I’m still hopeful the new ownership can keep working/investing to get this superb layout up to the standards (and green fees) it deserves.

It was ugly and rainy and although we came to the course with our foursome, we decided not to play in the rain. We were totally refunded both our round as well as our booking fee on Golf Now with no arguments or hesitations.. In this day and age, that is exceptional service. Thank you, we will return to this site and this golf course.

Best,

Course is in a lot better shape then when I played a few years back.

I play this course a lot and was disappointed at the pace of play. I was in a threesome following a foursome. they played extremely and we were waiting on every tee box to tee off. they had open holes on front of them. if there would have been a marshall out there, they would have had them skip a hole. after 12 holes, I called it a day.

I've played Timbers four or five times over the past three years. It is always a great experience. the course is in excellent condition. the staff always pleasant. pace of play great on a wednesday afternoon. It is easily one of the best courses in the DC, MD, Va area. I look forward to playing again. round would have cost $40 but I used my golfnow credits so only paid $5 bucks for range balls! great day all around.

Course is in good condition. The greens had some issues with ball marks and were a little slow but, it's a public course.

Interesting course that presents challenges to your game.

Good challenging local course from the first tee to the last. Course management is key but don’t be tempted to drive some of the shorter par 4’s.

this course is a Short but challenging place to play,

While it does not have a same length or water hazards as other premier courses in the area it is built to challenge you,

Around most greens there are tons of softball white sand that will give you fits if you get in them, also the small greens on the course have almost no fair way to play up to the green in which make you have to land it right on,

Also there allot of up hill and down hill shots that make things a bit more challenging because of all the different slopes,

The grass care here was very good (maintenance wise) almost no yellow spots or patchy ness around the course which make you feel like the extra money you spent was worth it,

Finally my negative which might not be even really about the course which is that people did not do there part to keep things nice, I believe a tournament was played right before I arrived and not a hole lot of effort was made to fill in divots with seed and grass chunks,

Luckily I only had one ball get into someone else’s divot on the day so it wasn’t bad but this is the only reason I don’t rank this course even higher,

Overall I will defiantly be back the fun layout really makes this a course where you can play the same ball the whole day but don’t feel like every hole is the same

Loved the play of this course. Challenging and yet not too much for a beginner. Fairways were great and the greens were amazing!! Considering playing this again soon.
