The Courses at Andrews

What The Courses at Andrews does

The Courses at Andrews is a government-operated military resort golf facility located on Joint Base Andrews Naval Air Facility in Maryland, approximately 15 minutes from Washington DC, Virginia, and Northern Virginia markets. The property spans 900 acres and comprises two 18-hole championship golf courses (East and South), a Toptracer-equipped driving range with 10 covered bays installed in 2024, a full-service pro shop, the Griff's Place food and beverage outlet, banquet and event facilities, a fitness center, and practice areas. The facility is positioned as the venue 'Where the Presidents Play,' with presidential seal-branded merchandise available at the pro shop.

The facility operates a direct-to-consumer business model restricted to a defined eligible population: active and retired military personnel, federal employees, and their family members. Revenue is generated across six streams: green fees and tee times, tournament and outing hosting (capacity up to 200 guests), pro shop retail including custom clubs and presidential-themed merchandise, food and beverage including event catering, golf instruction, and yearly memberships. Distribution is primarily through an online tee time reservation system (Prophetservices platform, available 24/7), supplemented by phone reservations and walk-in access.

The entity functions as a military recreation installation rather than a conventionally structured private company; there is no disclosed equity ownership, funding history, executive team, or revenue figure in the source material. Go-to-market is single-channel and regional, with no evidence of geographic expansion or commercial diversification beyond the eligible military/government catchment.
