Tees are hairy and not cut, greens have ball marks up the wazoo and are below average speed.

Some bias since this is my home ballpark. Candidly I love this place and the lakes is my favorite of the two courses. My complaints are minimal. Value is great. Course can be challenging but it’s not “hard.” There is some variation in hole design. Great overall public facility.

The routing and layout is conventional, but it plays adequately for the links style golf it seems to be trying to achieve. Some holes feel less than creative, but the views of the Washington Monument, Jefferson Memorial, wharf, marina, and Reagan Airport make that seem…
