This park is a good option if you want a mix of activities in one place. There's a mini golf area, tennis courts (that hosts tournaments?), and basketball courts. There's also a small playground and a few picnic areas. One downside is the lack of shade and can get pretty hot, during warmer weather read more

Jefferson District Park - Playground - Golf Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

Nice park, but needs some upkeep!!!! I visited Jefferson District Park and found it to be an average experience. The park has a good amount of open space and is nice for a walk or casual outdoor time. There are some useful facilities, but a few areas could use better maintenance. While it's generally quiet and family-friendly, certain sections felt worn down, and cleanliness could be improved. It's a decent place to visit if you're nearby, but not a destination I'd go out of my way for. Overall, the park has potential, but some updates and better upkeep would make it much more enjoyable. read more

Amazingly well kept. The topiary trees are fabulous. The water works make the course excellent. Fun for the whole family. Not very busy at all. Highly recommend! read more

Looking to kill an 45minutes with the kids and not sure what to do? As long as it's not too sunny (because there is no shade to be found) - this is a great option. Not expensive, not in front of a computer screen, just good ole fun! read more

This has a 9 hole course that's decent. I prefer the miniature course here, despite getting destroyed by my teenager. That is good family fun and par for the course! Puns have to happen, but this is a good area park. There's some basketball courts, and a nice area to take nature in. Admission is free, and all games are at prices meant to be affordable. While this isn't one of the biggest county parks, I like that it's usually not overcrowded. That alone is peace of mind. Parking is plentiful. It's a spot to go for an hour or two of recreation. That's a healthy thing. If you're in the area this should work, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go over here. Have heard rumors of improvements/changes, but see nothing tangible yet. read more

All the mini golf lovers- 18 hole fun here! 1. Convenient location/ lots of parking It's close from all cities in NOVA and parking is free and easy to find especially during the weekday. 2. Mini golf set up is not the best or the most dramatic or entertaining but it's rather cheap and fun. It's a great activity both for family with kids and corporate events. Some holes are very poorly designed, but still fun. It's fully outdoors so make sure to check the weather! read more

I love this park! It has everything! A playground for the little ones, basketball courts, and a few tennis courts and one with a backboard if you prefer to play solo! We have so much fun that we haven't even played putt putt golf yet. I love going to this park! read more

Went golfing on a course for the first time here; it was a great experience playing a 9-hole course. Friends who are golf enthusiasts said it was very decent for an executive course; low-key and great for beginners. On a Wednesday afternoon in the summer it costed $25/person to play in groups of four; renting a cart was an additional $11/person (walking was fine). Most of the staff seemed friendly enough. The clubhouse sells beer and food; no carts go around to re-fuel folks playing on the course, though. There is also no driving range available here for practice which is a huge bummer. read more

Jefferson District Park - Tee-off areas are well marked, and there is a huge wooden board/sign at every hole describing the path and distance. - Golf Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

I enjoy this 9 hole golf course very much. It's mostly flat, so easily walkable for all ages. The fairways are fairly wide but you can easily end up in the woods of you slice off the tee. Number 7 is a very short par-3. Number 4 is really the only water hole but even it has an option to avoid going over the hazard. The trickest part of the this course are the undulating greens which makes putting a challenge. Nice practice putting and chipping greens. Reasonable rates, it can be busy on weekends but the starters are good about getting groups off the tee. Small pro shop & grill area. Excellent place to get a quick round of golf. read more

We had fun as a family on a recent mini-golf outing here. It was moderately busy on a Sunday morning right when it opened, so we felt a bit rushed by the people behind us, but other than that the kids and their friends had a good time. The course was varied and everyone liked the part of the course where the ball is hit into a stream of running water. The unnaturally-dyed water and fake crocodiles added a kitschy feel to the place. We were a large party and after the first hole, we realized one parent wasn't going to manage to play. We returned the club/ball and they kindly gave us a credit to play one game free, which was nice (although we would have preferred a refund, which they apparently don't do). All in all, a positive experience and we'll return again. read more

This is one of my favorite local golf locations. There is a putting green but no driving range or cages. I come here with friends when we want to stay local. It's easy to grab a tee time. Parking is easy, the coarse is easy, and I can finish a round in less than 2 hours. read more

Great place to go with your kids on a nice day. Not the most challenging for adults. I came here with another fellow adult friend and we went through the whole course pretty quickly. They accept credit but it takes a while so it's easier to just bring cash read more

Course was amazing. Bugs (gnats) made this 9 hole shoulda been joy ride closer to miserable. They were EVERYWHERE - especially in my fave at all times. I wanna like this course & maybe I just caught it on a bad day, but I can't give a bug attack more than 3 stars. read more

Review is for the 9 hole gold course: We're beginner golfers here and it couldn't have been a better experience. The staff was helpful and accommodating and walked us through the basics without any hint of condescension (can't say that about hoity toity private places, I'll wager.) We got hooked up with a very nice single golfer who, also, couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. The course was nice but not so fancy we were worried about violating any protocol. Great job, Fairfax County Parks. We'll Ben back read more

Staff is unfriendly and poor management. Do not recommend going to this place. This place is a waste of time and money. They will give your tee time away to walk-ons even if you booked the tee time for 4 players. They won't even apologize or try to accommodate. Terrible management. Don't ever go. read more

I want to give them a bad review because I came in last in our group of 3's mini-golf outing but I really can't. The mini-golf course is pretty well-maintained. The water was flowing where it was meant to be flowing (fountains, fake rivers) and each hole varied from degree of difficulty (some of the easy looking ones were not so easy). There was no par suggested for each hole but it's fair to say that it's either 2 or 3. Would return...for redemption! Note: No credit cards; cash or checks only and slow play kills golf. read more

I tried going to Top Golf in Alexandria once on a Friday night to play mini-golf but encountered a two-hour wait period. However, when I came to Jefferson District Park on a Friday night, it was luckily devoid of people. There wasn't anyone to rush me or wait for me and I didn't have to wait for folks ahead of me to finish playing a hole. Plus, their parking lot is huge! The course is kept pretty well for being fairly cheap price-wise. Only $7 per adult. I think there's no need to have what I think is dyed blue water as a stream on the last few holes, but overall I think the green is kept in good condition. None of the holes are particularly challenging but for a golf amateur like myself, it's not bad and it's geared more towards beginners. Nonetheless it's fun. I went through all the holes fairly quickly, about 45 minutes. They accept credit cards but they don't have a machine to run the cards though, so I'd recommend bringing cash to speed up the process. read more

I am by no means a golf pro, but I do enjoy the driving range. This park has a great beginner 9 hole course! My short game is so horrendous, but this course was a great introduction. Here, I am able to flaunt my prodigious driving skills and at the same time practice my atrocious short game without feeling self-conscious. The golfers are usually very nice and patient - just don't take forever to hit the ball, that's a rule for any course. On weekends and holidays it will cost you $21 to play and all other times it's $17. I wouldn't recommend getting a golf cart here cause the course is definitely walkable. I do usually get the pull cart cause I'm a princess ($4.50). I must also mention that this park has 8 tennis courts. I come here all the time to play tennis. The courts are clean and they have lights that stay on till about 11pm. Usually in the summertime the courts are always filled after 6pm. read more

Best putput mini golf in northern Virginia. It's all about that crazy blue water. Parking is always available nd the free tennis courts rock. read more

FOORRREE!!! Sike. I'm not a real golfer, just a mini one. Mini golfing, that is. I came to Jefferson Park with Hyunoo P., Justin L. and Ed G. to get my putt putt on. Can I just say, this is probably one of the better mini golf courses I've been to, locally anyways (a comparison to a beach mini golf course just wouldn't be fair). The course is relatively small but is well-kept. The biggest downside to the whole course is that there wasn't a theme to the course (I'll just save that for the Perils of the Lost Jungle mini golf course in Sterling). I liked that the last hole had a mini "river" (just a stream of dyed blue water). A nice touch! Definitely worth a try if you're looking for something relatively cheap to do and that doesn't require any level of skill in order to still have fun. read more

Took the girls here mini golfing. The court was flooded in places. They also said I would have to pay for a coupon they advertised to a pancake house. read more

I'm still a beginner golfer even after playing for about 3 years. This course is very well maintained its a great beginner course, that has some challenging holes and you'll use just about every club in your bag. The prices are reasonable and I'd certainly like to play here again. read more

I've only played the golf course so I can't speak to the putt putt course. The course is geared toward beginners and when evaluated under that light, it's excellent. The course is extremely well kept for a cheap public and very walkable. The par 4s are pretty short and a pushover for experienced players. I managed to drive the green on the 9th with my three wood and I'm not a particularly long hitter. A few of the holes are played under power lines which could interfere with your ball. It's annoying but the course is dirt cheap so I hate to complain too much. If you want to enjoy some beers while playing, the course offers three 16 oz Sierra Nevada Torpedoes for $10 which is a fantastic deal. They'll even provide a bag with ice to take with you. If you're looking for a cheap and quick 9 holes after work, this place is perfect. read more

One day after getting let out early from jury duty (lucky me), I decided to play the Jefferson course to kill sometime before I went into work. I made a really good decision. The old starter lady was hitting on me as I set up my tee time, anytime you go into a round feeling like a total stud muffin you know its going to be an amazing round. I was lucky enough to be able to play the 9 holes by myself which was a 1st for me. It was also such a nice day that I walked the course. Its a very easy course to walk. No holes really stand out to me but its still a fun course. The course is pretty wide open. There isn't a lot of brush and a huge amount of trees on the sides of the fairways so if you hit it into the trees you have a good chance of being able to hit it out, or at the very least finding your ball and tossing back into the fairway like a real pro. The day I played the gods were with me because I was hitting it very straight and the fairways were very dry so the ball would roll and roll and roll. I remember the greens being more challenging then I expected with nice undulating (love that word) greens. This is a really great course for beginners or anybody looking for a fun quick round with a nicely maintained course read more

Pretty good mini golf course, with some challenging spots. Decent place for an amusing date. I went last summer and plan to return again with the warmer weather this year. read more

Was not happy with the customer service. The tee-times were so squished this last Sunday...there was only ten minutes between times. Golf is a slow sport. By no means should shots be rushed. The lady running the times went on a golf cart and yelled at my group to hurry up. Honestly, I did not like the way she treated our group. And I think this will deter me from coming back again. read more

For what it is, this is an excellent public course. A 9 hole executive course that is nice for beginners and easy for more experienced golfers. Mostly short par 4s, a couple of par 3s, and one short par 5. Normally pace of play is not a problem unless it is a really nice day, and then it can back up in the afternoon. No need to rent a cart unless you have a physical issue. Course is in much better shape than the other fairfax public courses. Staff is friendly and green fees are reasonable. Drawback - no range to warm up on, just one chipping area and one putting green. read more

So I was honestly surprised that the course is actually pretty good because from the outside it looked a little so-so. It was $6 and totally worth it. There is one course that if you hit it down the waterfall it gives you a hole in one. Pretty cool! read more

very fun and well maintained golf course. I am a beginner in training to the sport and found this course challenging, but not too hard. most of the challenge was in myself ;). over all i really enjoyed this course. i went alone and didnt have that long of a wait to be paired up with a group of 4, and the staff was well organized. i definitely see myself returning quite often to this course to help my game improve. read more

One of the best mini-golf ( or putt putt ) courses I've been to! We came as part of a silly mini-birthday adventure and were VERY pleasantly surprised. The layout was conducive to an easy stroll, lots of holes, and "challenging" holes to shoot. Definitely recommended! read more

This place is just mediocre. I'm never coming back to this place ever again. Pathetic service at really expensive prices. Guys don't waste your time with these guys. read more

Mini-golf review only. This is one of the only miniature golf courses in the DC area. It's a clean, well-kept,and cheap course, but not very exciting or challenging. Too flat and no windmills. They take charge cards but the number has to the phoned into the clubhouse for processing; bring cash for quick payment. read more

I see why no one has reviewed the mini golf portion of this park--I was the only one stupid enough to go to it. This is the lamest mini golf I've ever been to. It's old and neglected. I thought at least the last hole would be fun (you know, where you have to shoot the ball into a clown's mouth or something silly like that) but nope. Totally unremarkable, just like the other holes. Too bad I don't play golf since the golf course has great reviews. read more

It seems like every trip to Jefferson District Park only ends when the coolers are empty of beer! We showed up for another round of mini golf for our monthly 'Hole in Chug' tournament'. Although they do not have a bar on site, refreshments (chuggers) are sold by the attendant who gives you your clubs. The workers have a running joke of letting our group come in for free each month and we greatly appreciate it. I hit a hole in one last month and my entire group had to chug their beers. My Dad was there too even though he thought he had to head to Pennsylvania for the weekend. He had a guy in PA selling a trailer hitch that fit his truck perfect and his hitch had snapped a few years back so now we haven't been able to haul anything. I told him I'd just get him a hitch for his birthday instead so he could drink with us. Overall, another great time at Jefferson's!! read more

As Avenger R. says, "A great little public Fairfax County-operated 9 hole "executive" golf course." My husband and I love to play this course for an inexpensive round that will not take all day. Friendly staff and well-maintained course. read more

Fun course to work on your short game. always in pretty good shape. Only problem: they don't sell beer. what's up with that? read more

My review is for the mini golf. Pretty nice course. Well maintained. The holes are short but challenging and we were lucky to not end up behind a large group. It would take forever to finish the course if it was really busy. Credit cards aren't taken there unless they are slow and can call it up to the clubhouse. It's 2014, get a square or something. read more

Great place to play golf at a reasonable price! Good terrain and well kept course!

Good beginner course or a course to just play in within a 1 1/2 to 2 hour time frame. Staff is always nice and course is decently maintained. I go here quite often just to enjoy some self time. read more

This review is strictly for the 9 hole golf course. My husband and I arrived here for the first time for a 5:10 tee time. We arrived at 5:00 pm with gear and ready to go. We had to wait in a line for the cash register, and while we were standing there, we got an email that our tee time had been canceled. The worst part was we saw the cashier give away our tee time to someone he knew in front of us in line. When we finally reached the counter, the cashier informed us that he did cancel our tee time. No further explanation, and no alternative resolution. We will absolutely not be coming back to this joke of a course. Completely unprofessional, and I see that is a running theme, according to previous reviews. read more
