Description

Langston Golf Course stands as one of Washington, D.C.’s most historically significant public golf venues, originally opened in 1939 as a segregated facility for Black golfers during the Jim Crow era. Nestled along the Anacostia River, the course blends rolling terrain with mature trees and scenic riverfront vistas that give it a peaceful, parkland feel despite its urban setting. Over the decades, Langston has hosted numerous notable players and events, becoming a cultural and social cornerstone for African American golf in the region. The layout offers a challenging but approachable test, with narrow fairways and subtle greens that reward precision over power. Today, Langston remains beloved for its heritage, community presence, and its role in preserving an important chapter of American golf history.

All the staff were kind — from the front desk to the field managers — and everyone greeted us with a smile. The green fee was also very reasonable. However, I felt the facilities could really use some improvements. They seemed quite outdated, and I would have gladly paid a bit more to play at a renovated course. Since this was a rare visit to the U.S., I had hoped to play somewhere clean, beautiful, and well-maintained like in Hawaii, California or Las Vegas. Unfortunately, those kinds of courses are members-only and couldn’t be booked, so we came here instead — which was a bit disappointing.

It was a privilege to finally visit this historic golf range. I had passed it for years and only stopped in when I took my nephew for his lesson. The Langston range is a gem rich with history, purpose, and a great range. We are so grateful that they offer lessons to youngsters in the summer. There is a wonderful golf supply store and cafe. Oh, and the menu is a draw too. I enjoyed a lovely salad while waiting for my nephew to wrap up his lesson.

Great historic experience with young black Caddies and trees with so much character in the heart of the city. Great to know that investors have decided to invest more into it for the future. Cant' wait to go back there after renovations.

17MAR.2025 This historical 18 hole golf course is beautiful and nice staff at Langston Grille. Don’t try to call the restaurant, no one answers the phone. The food is made to order(especially the eggs). The omelette 🍳 w/veggies and turkey sausage. And the French fries are huge steak fries. I know this is a historical spot, would love if proper updated renovations could be done with some serious, generous financial donations. This place deserve that and more.

I play here a couple times a month and it's always a good time. Staff is friendly and easy going. The grill serves a solid grilled cheese sandwich. The driving range is on the other side of the bridge and having TopTracer there makes crushing practice balls even more fun.
