Gauntlet Golf Club, Fredericksburg, VA

Wonderful golf course! Very helpful and friendly staff. I am really thankful to find this place...

Lots of blind shots and the greens were in reasonably good condition. Had a good time playing this course. This is not a very long course but is fun to play.

The course was in decent shape other than the greens (which is kind of a big deal). The clubhouse and surroundings aren't much, but that only matters if you want to have a wedding or tournament there. The real problem for me was time management. They had a league playing there, and things were so behind schedule than we had to tee off :45 minutes late. Then the pace of play was incredibly slow. In all, we basically had a 6 hour round. Not worth the drive and the price.

No question this course has the scenery, challenge and character to keep players of all levels interested. It's big question has been the tees and greens over the past few years. The new superintendent now has that under control. Course is in the best shape since it opened and getting better. Recommend to all!

I played this course in a Captains Choice Scramble for the first time yesterday. I found this course to be in excellent condition. You really have to think on several holes. Expect to get into some trouble the first time you play simply due to lack of knowledge. Fortunately, all of my team mates had played this course. I am planning on returning in the very near future to play with my friends in a non tournament format.

This is a nice public course. I understand that the conditions this year were terrible on greens and many of them were stressed because of it. However, that did not detract from the enjoyment of the round. The layout is nice and the fairways were fine. I would go back and play this one again.

Played 8/22/2010. Greens were poor.Many weeds and bare patches, and they were soaking wet to allow them to hold. Fairways were nice but shaggy, and rough was nasty tough. This is a great layout, with many blind tee shots and local knowledge required. Would only play again if greens improved.
