Shoots in the 90s

You know, I understand that this isn't the finest course around, but you get a great bang for you buck here. It's a municipal course. I play here once in a while because it is cheap and not too difficult. A great place to work on new techniques.

Customer Service

Good enough, no complaints.

Shoots in the 100s

I played this course a couple of weeks ago. The greens were in excellent condition, and had good speed. The fairways were perfect after being renovated to Bermudagrass. The only thing less than spectacular was the bunkers, which need to be rebuilt.

Customer Service

Everyone in the Pro shop was very friendly.

Enjoyed the day (9/14/2007), but the course was in terrible shape. They were aerifying one hole as we played, but overall the conditions were atrocious. Tee boxes and greens were in good shape (actually the greens were in excellent shape; soft and true), but the fairways were something else. Sparse grass, sod rolls covering some poor areas, etc. i suppose it is a factor of the time of year and the lack of rain, but I expected more from one of the "better" municipal courses.

I think a lot of people in NoVA are giving this course a bad rap. It's the only course in the area that you can walk for $39 on the weekends. It's long at 6800 some odd yards and the greens are decent. I garuantee that you cant find a better course for the money in NoVA right now. The equivalent to this course would be Reston National and that'll run ya 94 dollars on Sunday. It's a park course, but gives you the most bang for the buck!!

Customer Service

Starter is friendly and will normally get you out on the weekends without a tee time. I've never experienced any buddy system incidents and I've played there over 25 rounds.

Shoots in the 90s

Played in mid August. Fairways, greens, and rough were the worst I've seen. uncut, unkept. The only thing that was cool about this course was that we saw a nice 8 point buck walking around the course.

Shoots in the 80s

I have to agree with the first guy, this course works on the buddy system. We had a group hitting into us all day while we were backed up from the group in front of us. The marshals came to give us grief. The course is long, but playable if you bring the driver. The greens are very inconsistent, going from slow to quick, back to slow. All in all, a playable public course, but won't knock anyone's doors off.

Shoots in the 100s

COURSE IS OK -- SHOULD REDESIGN FRONT NINE, VERY BORING. BACK NINE OPENS UP AND MORE SCENIC. DECENT GREENS. WON'T LOSE MANY BALLS HERE, EVEN THOUGH LOTS OF TREES ON FRONT NINE

Customer Service

THEY RUN THE BUDDY SYSTEM HERE -- I WAS A WALK ON SINGLE AND WAITED 2.5 HOURS AND DIDN'T GET ON, EVEN THOUGH I WATCHED MANY 3SOMES SHOW UP. I SAW STARTER LOOKING AROUND FOR SOMEONE HE AND THE GROUP KNEW RATHER THAN TAKING WHO WAS NEXT ON THE LIST. I SHOULD OF FOUND THE COURSE MANAGER, BUT THIS IS RUN BY PARK STAFF

Wonderful course with incredibly friendly staff. Pace of play was right on time and the marshalls kept things moving along very well. Very woodsy and natural feel to the course.

Customer Service

Excellent.

Shoot in the 90s

This is a nice long course set deep in the Cascades community before Cascades was built. It is part of a larger park area with camping and such. I liked it's country feel. It is very isolated with large fairways and woods surrounding the course. I noticed the rough as being very deep when I was there in the mid summer. The layout is traditional and pleasant. Long, but not too difficult.
