Carts cleanliness

The cart was not cleaned, I used my own wipes to clean it. It looked like someone was four wheeling with it.

People in the course should follow the COVID-19 rules

The course is in general in a very good shape, and the staff is still working to make a better course in landscaping. However we found that some people chatting in the club house didn't wear face masks, which did not follow the COVID-19 social requirement, even though the club personnel wore masks, who should probably remind people to follow the rules.

Westminster National

Westminster National is a great layout and a great value for your money. Challenging holes, and strategically placed hazards. You have to learn every shot and make the best of it. I always recommend Westminster National two friends and other golfers.

Scenic and Challenging

Course plays a bit longer than it looks. While landing spots are more than fair, they have to be hit to avoid trouble. Can't wait to play again later in the season. must be beautiful in the fall.

Incredible Value

Played 18 holes with cart using a golfnow "Hot Deal", $14!!! Course is of course still in "winter rates & conditions" till the end of the March. So grass isn't growing yet. Conditions were surprisingly good. Greens were slow but very good. Did need to clean and place a few times. I was the first person off the tee that day and finished my round in 2 hours 15 minutes. The people working there are always great. I've played there 3-5 times a year for nearly 30 years. Course is short, but plenty of challenging holes. I suffered the dreaded snowman on the last hole (a GREAT last hole!) by going OB right, or I could have broke or tied my low score ever there, 81. Still shot 84 and I'm a 15 handicap.

Good to sharpen up you skills.

This course offers a good variety of styles. Long par 3 , long dog legs, short par 3 and short par 4’s. holes are little cramped together and cart path is rough. That’s the only bad I see in the course. Everything else is in good shape.

Great layout that had a challenge on every hole.

Some holes were a challenge for the cart. Need more rubber on the tires for traction. Going up wooden steps, a hanging nail put a hole in the toe of right shoe. Some holes were not for the faint of heart. I am looking forward for another round next year.

Tough Greens - Fun Course!

Overall the course was in good shape...a few spots where you can tell the course has been played often this year but overall I was surprised and pleased with the conditions of the course. It has some challenging holes where you need to place your shots but isn't so difficult that it kills the fun. The greens were in great shape but man, they are tough with a couple of tiers or never-ending slopes! I'll be back again in the next week or so....

Carts

Carts were unsafe and in need of repair. Tires had no tread on them. Slide backwards on hole number 5 into briers and thrown out of cart. Staff responded with another cart in timely fashion.

Wow! I Had Forgotten How Challenging...

It's been probably 6-7 years since I've played Westminster National...it was Bear Creek when I played last. The new management has put a lot of money in the course with the fencing on top of the walls on #9 and #18, new and improved landscaping, and the posts, ropes, and improved cart paths on #6 and #10. The course was in great shape, with beautiful green fairways. The only reason it's a 4 vs 5 rating is because some of the bunkers had water in them, the rough had some dirt holes where grass was not growing, and there were a large number of unrepaired ball marks on almost every green (of course, this is the responsibility of the players and not the course, but it is an issue). This course is extremely challenging--I'm not sure there is a level lie any place! And, with most of the greens crowned, it does present a challenge. However, if makes you work on your course management, and if you can play here I guarantee you can play most any course! We did let two different singles play through...they were very respectful and didn't press, but it was distracting especially since my friend had never played WNGC before. For $49 on a Saturday, it's a good value.
