Renditions Golf Course is a unique layout that features replicas of holes from U.S. Open or PGA Championship venues. Given each hole is modeled after holes from around the world, the course offers plenty of variety ranging from parkland to links. Holes six through nine are replicas of Augusta National's famous Amen Corner. Like their inspiration, Renditions' versions are a formidable test. The golf course offers a round unlike any other. Nowhere else would you be able to get a taste of golf's most well known courses all in one place. After several hundred trees were added to the landscape, which was formerly the site of a sand mining operation, it was completely transformed into the perfect setting for golf, enhanced even further by the Patuxent River that flows nearby.

Great Hot Deal

Course was great, played because of reduced rate with hot deal. I know this is an expensive course normally and perhaps justified .... However, the ball marks on the greens MUST be fixed. The staff should perhaps address since players are not.

60 degree and no rain, perfect conditions ... Yet cart path only? Ridiculous. That slows people up a lot!!!

Grounds staff

There was a grounds staff with a blue shirt who kept interrupting our round. He would get in the way, turn on the sprinklers, and stand on the green. When we asked him why he would not at least wait for us to hit, he said he did not care. Is there a rule for this situation? It ruined a couple of holes for us.

Renditions - interesting

Having not played the actual holes that Renditions have recreated did we just do so? The Leaderboard was a nice touch. Rae’s Creek wasn’t hard., bogeyed it! But really it was an adventure. Having the concession stand in the middle course nice touch. Everyone passes it 3 times. Doubt that I will go back for a second round.

Renditions

The greens looked liked they were bombed by all the range balls. People REPAIR YOUR BALLMARKS!
Course management should be repairing what’s not. It was interesting.

Good condition fast greens

Hot day. Greens rolled fast. Course overall very good condition. Some divots not filled but greens were 8/10 condition. Very good for a public course.

My only problem is $12 for a bucket of range balls.

Just Enough! Exact amount!

Had a great experience starting at the bag drop where the staff knew my name and readily retrieved my clubs from my car. Every single interaction with staff were all excellent.

The course designers created something special with the background story of every hole, the major PGA events played at the course source, and many references to greats:Jones, Hogan, Palmer, and Nicklaus to name a few.

The visual and spiritual impact is surprising. The azaleas and magnolias at amen corner just represent the attention to detail that is in the Rendition DNA and lineage.

The Pro Shop is well inventoried and the pub style grill puts out great food. Staff were incredibly friendly and courteous.

Advice I received the day I played was this:
-The course is difficult
-The greens are fast
- The greens are tricky so never land above the hole

Bottom line…I waited 5 years to play this course and it was worth the wait! Just enough challenge and exactly the right amount of respect for the game.

Meh - underwhelming

No one manages pace of play, lots of ground under repair, and the greens look like the surface of the moon. Wouldn’t recommend as a course that charges $100.

Good condition - no one on the course

Was able to finish my round in 3:10 only one group in front of me. Greens rolled true and pretty fast for a public course. Fun lay out. All replicas of famous golf holes.

Nice “half-way house” accessible near 6 tee box and you pass again later in the round.

Only complaint is you have to pay for range balls. This much on a round should include range balls.

The bunkers

Everything about the course was amazing, except the bunkers, very rocky and hadn't been raked. It's my fault I shouldn't have been in the bunker. Over all great course!

Nice course. A little tired.

Overall a nice day out. Some of the holes are really boring. Medinah no. 6! Amen Corner is pretty well done. But forget about the “renditions” really. It plays like a high end muni.

Awesome track in great shape

I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the course. Excellent condition, nice easy to use range right the in the front, great layout, nice greens. I read in other reviews about ball marks and I saw many and fixed many extra ones. It's just lazy golfers, but the ball rolled great. I look forward to playing again one day.
