    Bug bites
    Rumteen R.

    The bugs are insane. They don't just annoy you they bite, I've never been this destroyed by bugs on a course. I can barely walk because my calves are so swollen. Take bug spray. It's insane that they even let you golf here without it. They should offer you some at checkin with how bad it was

    Menu that shows chicken salad sandwich on a croissant
    Diane M.

    Had my daughter's baby shower there and the food and service was TERRIBLE! Here's how me and my guests were treated: The food that this golf club served SUCKED! I paid for a sit-down meal with two choices. First off, the fruit that was brought out was mixed with old fruit. The chicken salad sandwich was supposed to be served on a croissant and it was served instead on a hoagie roll which made it difficult to eat! The Alfredo was dry, very little sauce on it and no extra brought to the table. My package also included iced tea and lemon aid, NONE of which was served! The water glasses were NOT refilled either. My guests ended up paying for their own drinks at the bar for something to drink! I was not made aware of this until after the shower. The plates were NOT cleared from the table as I was told by management that they did not want to disturb us! I was told that we could use their monitors for a picture collage and a lot of time was spent putting that together and it did not work! Very frustrating. I spent well over $1,000 for a very disappointing experience at Pinecrest golf club! Below is the email I received from them addressing my concerns and basically the blame was pushed off on me! I also called Vickie Boysen who books these events to share my concerns and I NEVER received a response back. So please beware of dealing with the following people, Vickie Boysen, Craig Franke and Mark Villarreal. Do yourself a favor and take your business elsewhere!

    8th Hole green - Par 5
    Matt A.

    This is a nice, cheap 9-hole public course. Not super fancy or anything but for $20 I think this deserves 4*. They have a bar with beers on tap as well as cans and other food items in the clubhouse if you want a couple brews for the round. It is a short course but it is actually pretty challenging with a couple narrow fairways and a good amount of trees. There are a couple small ponds and a creek that runs through the course but not much water or sand bunkers on it. There are two par 5's, three par 3's, and four par 4's. You can call ahead to get a tee time but I have often just walked on, as well. Everyone that works there is very nice and helpful. I have always walked this short course but they do have golf carts if you want/need them. Hit 'em straight and long! Oh, they also offer foot golf (soccer version) but I believe it is only available certain days but I am not positive. There is a net you can hit into but don't come expecting a driving range. They do have a practice green, though

    Huge geese flock
    David H.

    This place is worth checking out for 18 holes of footgolf. They have 9 holes for golf but they have the full 18 if you want to kick the ball instead of hitting it with the club. Challenging course that will send you into the trees and woods chasing an errant kick (I had the scrape on my hand to prove it) to retrieve the ball and might even get your ball in the lake where you have to deal with a HUGE flock of geese that know they own the place. You definitely don't need a cart for footgolf here unless you have problems walking or are really lazy. Only downside here is the course can get crowded and the golfers and golfers can't really play at the same time so you might be waiting in line at all the holes on a busy day. I'll come back here to play footgolf for sure an maybe check out a round of golf sometime too.

    Great course. Forces novice players to work on accuracy and irons. Friendly staff.

    I do mini golf often but this was my first time at Puttery. It was a great time. Normally, I go to…read moreSwingers in Dupont Circle but Puttery was a good change of pace. I really enjoyed them offering unlimited playing time. The service was great as well. We made a reservation but also wanted to dine in for food. The hostess suggested that we eat first and then play since the kitchen was going to close soon. The hostess quickly took us to our seat where we were immediately greeted by our waitress. She was very kind and attentive. She gave some drink and food suggestions as well. For food we ordered 18 wings (buffalo, bourbon, and garlic parm). The wings were delicious. Very flavorful. For drinks I ordered a punch with rum and my friend ordered a blue moon. The ambiance was great. I really enjoyed the different themes of the courses. Also, I like that we did not feel rushed going to each hole. Sometimes if it is crowded or the holes are not spaced out too well it can cause a bottleneck of playing time between groups. At Puttery it seemed like they spaced out the holes appropriately. It was a great experience. It is a great place for a cute date night or just meeting up with friends. I recommend checking them out. Cheers!

    What drew me in was Great deals on mini golfing and the happy hour specials…read more As a Walk in for the special golf price . It was crowded. It was a 40min wait. With the manager dedicating it to memory and we had to be in the location to keep our place in line. There was no pager system. Just an honor system. Not sure how legit the process was. We came back 40min later and got our golf clubs. HH special is pretty great! BUT a bait and switch! Not very "happy" about that. Happy hour draft beer were NOT on happy hour! The menu was deceiving. It said drafts for $3. I was very excited cause that deal is probably the best in DC. When we got the bill, it was way over what we expected to pay. It turns out the fine print, which was never printed on the menu. Seated the draft beers were limited to three options. Or bartender never mentioned it. I do feel duped on that. Which worries me that the rest of the menu has other bait and switch options. To the mini golf, which is why everyone goes here. The courses were appropriate. Not too many obstacles or anything interactive. At times it got pretty crowded so there's a long wait. After drinking a few full priced beers we ended up having a lot of fun. I'm not sure how I would've felt if I paid full price for the 3 courses. I would recommend this place when it's not super crowded. And ask your bartender server to clarify the prices on everything before you order.

For those unfamiliar, the complex has three setups: the 18-hole Blue Course (regulation length where you can take a cart), the 9-hole White Course (an executive mix of par 3s and 4s), and the 9-hole Red Course, which is a walking-only par-3 loop. They also have a busy two-tier driving range and plenty of flat putting areas. If you are brand new to the game and do not have your own set yet, they make it easy by letting you borrow clubs, making it a very welcoming entry point for beginners. We played the Red Course on a Saturday morning ($20/person) and ran into some serious pacing hiccups. After starting about 15 minutes past our 8:00 AM tee time, we ended up waiting on literally every hole, dragging a short 9-hole walk out to an hour and a half. The compact routing is also pretty dicey safety-wise--the tee boxes sit right next to the greens, and we nearly took stray balls to the face twice, so you really have to keep your head on a swivel. Conditions were rough around the edges with mostly flat greens, rock-hard sand in the bunkers after the previous night's rain, bird droppings all over the grounds, and a main clubhouse building that feels noticeably run-down. Despite the rough shape, the setting is hard to beat. Being right on the water at Hains Point with planes flying overhead, cyclists looping the park, and The Wharf right across the river for post-round lunch gives it a great local vibe. There has been a lot of talk and planning around major overhauls and restorations for the course through the National Park Service and National Links Trust, and it honestly desperately needs that refresh. If the planned renovations eventually bring the drainage, clubhouse, and course layouts up to standard, this place could easily become a world-class municipal gem. For now, it is a fun, casual spot for a cheap practice round as long as you know what to expect.

    Easily one of my favorite public courses in NoVa! Fun course, friendly staff, great price…read more Facilities: There is a practice putting green, but there isn't a driving range - they do have practice nets with free balls you can use to warm up though. The clubhouse is nice and clean, but nothing special. Beers range in price from $6-$6.50 and they do serve hot food in addition to snacks. Course: The course is beautiful and well-maintained. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in great condition, and there are a ton of doglegs and interesting elevations which makes for some fun golf. For the nature lovers, there are a ton of birdhouse throughout the course which attracts a fair amount of different species of birds adding to the atmosphere. Difficultly wise I think it's easy enough for beginners to enjoy, but also enough of a challenge that low handicaps won't get bored. Pace of Play: We had a 4pm tee time for 18 holes on a Saturday and had no issues with pace of play. We walked the course and finished within the 4:20hr stated PoP without slowing up or feeling rushed by the groups in front/behind us. Staff: Amazing staff! Everyone from the pro-shop to the starter was friendly and helpful. We were even given bags of ice for our beers to finish the back-9. Negative: Only negative was that they did run out of hot food by the time we reached the turn (around 6pm). All-in-all, I can't wait to come back and play this course again!

I left my bluetooth speaker after playing a round, and at most golf courses, it wouldve been long gone. Not here!! A called a week after leaving it and they still had it in the lost and found and put it aside for me to pick up at my earliest convenience. Oh yeah, the course is great too. Affordable, not too difficult, and they always have great fairways and greens for a public course
