About
Blue Mash Golf Course is the Rockville area's premier public offering. This Arthur Hills design combines links-style, parkland, wooded, and water holes. With such an interesting variety, the course is enjoyable for golfers of all different tastes and skill levels. With no forced carries, it's even a manageable course for beginners and high handicappers, while more seasoned golfers will be challenged by the length from the back tees, the well protected elevated greens, and the plentiful strategically placed bunkers. Water also comes into play on a few holes. The diverse mix of holes makes Blue Mash G.C. a true shotmaker's layout. In addition to the golf course, Blue Marsh is known for having one of the best practice facilities in all of Maryland. It features a 10,000-square-foot putting green, an all-grass-tee driving range, and a separate area for practicing your short game.

Golf in January
The course is in really good shape and the greens are fast but fair. Glad I went
Best public Course In MOCO
I am a regular player here and the staff is always friendly and welcoming, especially Sam. Overall a phenomenal course with a great staff. Always in good shape and good pace of play during peak hours.
Thank you - glad you enjoyed it!
Great experience
It was my first time playing at blue mash wasn’t sure what to expect but once I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and a warm welcoming. Sam was wonderful great customer service. Was very attentive if we needed anything before we went out. Golf balls gloves tees etc. He wanted to make sure we had everything. Honestly made me feel more confident in my game. Overall the course was beautiful and highly recommend to come and visit you won’t regret it.
Thank you!
Great experience
Conditions were great and the staff was top notch.
Thank you!
Great links type layout
The course was wet but in excellent condition. My group loss a few balls that were center fairway, more than likely plugged. Greens were speedy and rolled true. Beautiful course.
Thank you!
Always fun
You need every club in the bag and that makes it fun.
Memorable for all the right reasons
I’ll preface this review with the fact that myself and three friends played this course in mid-November with the temperature hovering around 30 degrees and a wind that dropped the real feel to the teens. Yet, foolishly or otherwise, we ventured on, playing all 18 holes and finishing as the sun set.
The course, even in this weather, was maintained incredibly. The greens felt at summer speeds, you could take chunks out of the fairway without feeling like your clubs or hands would snap instead of the cold ground giving way. The staff was incredibly helpful, providing food and assistance quickly and with care.
The layout is also wonderful. For a player of my caliber, a nice open fairway to find my shanked balls are always appreciated. Yet this course doesn’t cater to the newbie, with smart bunker placement, tough greens, and long par 5s it can be a challenge to most.
Overall this course is high on my list of MD destinations. I will 100% be returning in the spring/summer for more rounds.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!!
Great Conditions
The course was in phenomenal shape. This was our first time coming here and we were more than pleased with the overall quality of the course, as well as the difficult challenge some holes played. The staff were also very friendly and they had great bar service. I would recommend anyone to come play this wonderful course.
Nice place, friendly staff
Lots of marshalls on the course keeping pace. Good time.
Ehhh...
Not bad but not a great value proposition right now. Too expensive for a 5 hour round in November on a weekday. Leaves all over some holes. The course is okay... At this price wait till summer.
Hi, we are sorry we did not meet your expectations. I do see researching our records that we had one group at 4:40 and a few others slow as well. We agree that is too long. If we can be of further assistance in a more specific manner, please email jhills@bluemash.com. Thanik you!!
Thank you for your feedback. I'd like to apologize for pace of play on Wednesday. We had a course advisor assisting a slow group for a large part of the day. We gave out coupons to groups that were effected by the slow group. Please contact jhines@bluemash.com, I'd like to offer you a more concrete level of apology for your experience this week. I look forward to speaking with you.
WORSE
Pace of play is worse. There is a marshal but he is just watching the group people who are playing very slow.. no warning or anything.
Julian it was very nice speaking with you on the phone today. I'm very sorry for the slow play you experienced last Sunday. Pace of play and guest experience is our top priorities at Blue Mash. I was happy to hear from you that course condition and team members service were both top tier on Sunday. Look forward to seeing you again soon.
Best value in the area!
If you are anywhere near this course, you should play it. 5 star all around. Layout, conditions, range all amazing! I’d be a member if I lived closer. You won’t be disappointed.
Thank you!!
Great dsy of golf
It’s a beautiful course in excellent condition. Very well maintained overall with fast undulating greens. Our round was in 4 hrs. Not an easy layout, but fair, with a couple of holes requiring local knowledge to play well. I’ll certainly come back.
Thank you!
Thank you!
