What the club says: The George Washington Golf and Country Club hosts a fabulous par 73, championship course with a standard scratch of 71. Set in mature tree lined parkland, the course is home to a number of major regional competitions. The various natural hazards and tactical holes offer a good challenge of golf to both occasional and seasoned club players.

The course was long. One of the longest I've plaid but this was negated by the wideners of nearly all the fairways. Not a course where many lost balls should come into play. The course was beautifully kept, the greens were fast and tricky which is to be expected.

Great Course

My club course, so I may be biased. It's beautiful to play through the trees, and very picturesque. Is a bit wet at the moment, but that's typical of a lot of parkland courses at this time of the year.
