Nice Course for Money

My 13 yo son and I celebrated a half day of school and nice weather by visiting Bristow, and had a great time! The staff in the clubhouse and starter were all business, not very chatty, but got us out on the course on time and well spaced. The 10 minute intervals made a big difference from other courses six minutes, as the pace was good but never felt rushed or pushing someone's tail. Agree with others that the course layout on front nine can be a little confusing, but wide open fairways were helpful for our VERY amateur status. Paired with two veterans of the course who were a lot of fun, probably the best foursome play we've had in a while. Would definitely come back and play there again!

The course was in great shape with the exception of no sand in the bunkers. Otherwise I would give it five stars.

This course is a perfect example of what a course should be

Me and my friend played 9 holes late in the day. They were kind enough to let us play even after it had rained that morning. The fairways were perfect and the greens were like carpet. The course also has an awesome design. Gene and Tyler were in the Pro Shop and they were as kind as could be. Will definitely be back!

Excellent Conditon

I play all around the NOVA and Bristow's greens and fairways are some of the best. Many courses are still recovering from aeration but Bristow is ahead of the curve. Pace of play was great. Some of the bunkers are still a bit harsh in terms of the quality of the sand/dirt but I hear you aren't supposed to hit it in there anyway. I wish it was a little cheaper than $86 but such is life. I'll definitely be back.

The people a rude. Had two snobby experiences here. They don't have enough equipment to run the course. Both times problem with staff and management communication. Lady up front nice as can be there was a guy in the pro shop the first time who was rude stuck up but there So many places that will treat you with respect. For 98 bucks there shouldn't be any problem or rudness from staff I play several times a week and live right down the rd from this course ill drive to potomac shore to play before I ever go back here

Good, just not there yet

Course layout on the front nine is a confusing mess and no one can change that now without spending big money. Staff is not great at making you feel welcome, the walk to your car after dropping off your cart is too long. Mid summer the course will be in better shape, still in winter-like shape; saving Grace is the back nine is more spread out, open and more fun.

Deceivingly challenging

Although it was wintery conditions the course was in great shape, especially the greens which rolled true and fast. The course seems easy to play but once you step foot on it you realize that para are hard to come across. I was paired up with a local who was very knowledgeable of the course and his tips were of great help. Overall a great experience. I bet this course is amazing in the warmer months.
