Blue Mash Golf Course
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.

The course is always very nice in shape
Played here for 3x a year, i love the course and the driving range the only i got disappointed is the Rangers not pushing the players that was playing slow.
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.
Thank you for playing Blue Mash. It was a pleasure to serve you! Please reach out to jhines@bluemash.com, I'd like to discuss your experience in more detail. Thank you.
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!!
One of the fairest courses in the area
Blue Mash always provides a fair test.
Choose your tees wisely, trying to man up will only bring you pain. A fun course from the right tees.
820 tee time and still finished in four hours and 15 minutes.
One of the better practice areas in the region, with grass tears allowing for a proper warm-up. Separate putting in short game area make sure you are ready to go
Thanks!
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!
One of the better courses in the area
Always a fair test, be honest about which tee box you should play from, course will bite you if you don't. They keep it in great condition, for some reason, No One fixes their ball marks, but nothing the course can do about that, so the rest of us are tasked with fixing our own plus several more.
Only complaint, please include a small bucket of balls with greens fees, or make them part of the cost. Sending players out who haven't warmed up only hurts pace of play for everyone.
A we bit of Links in Maryland
It was work finding this course but worth the effort. My 10:40 tee time was pushed back 35 minutes due to a frost delay. Would've been great if a push notification went out there was a delay. Maybe these guys don't believe in technology. Fun and challenging course. Nice mix of stretch holes and sporty short par 4s. Greens are generally large with lots of movement. The guys I joined said somehow the wind always blows here. It was gusting over 20 mph. Just some added challenge. The only problem is that the round got close to 5 hours. Rangers tried their best but could move things along. I would go back though!
Thank you and our sincere apologies for not providing the frost delay notification, as we normally do. This was an oversight on the part of new staff, as it was the first delay of the year. It won't happen again. Cheers,
Cart Path Only
We played on Friday and yea it rained a couple days prior however at 2:20 when we tee’d off there was no need for cart path only. The course was dry.
Thanks - we will look into that.
Nice course, greens a bit beaten up
I've been wanting to play Blue Mash for a while and have always heard good things. It was a very nice facility and the course was nicely maintained. Unfortunately, the greens were littered with spike marks and unfixed pitch marks. The most unfortunate thing is that players can control this by just being a little more careful and considerate. If the greens had been in better shape this would be a perfect rating
Thanks - we will get to work on the ball marks!
Slow play
Pace of play was extremely slow for a Monday. Course was in great shape other than some holes having construction. Greens were in good shape as well
Thank you - I do see that our slowest round that day was 4 hours 27 minutes, which is indeed slower than usual for a Monday. We apologize for that and will strive to do better in the future. If we can be of further assistance, please email jhills@bluemash.com. Thank you!
Great layout.
Great layout. Course in great condition. Tough but fair.
Thank you!!
Favorite course
Great layout and friendly staff. My favorite place to play.
Thank you!
Blue Trash
For the money charged not worth it. Most t-boxes divots disaster. Greens pock-marked with divots. Fairways ok some holes, chewed up others.
I’ve seen municipals in better shape. Not worth the $$$.
We are sorry you did not enjoy your round. The course should be healing more quickly now that the tough August weather is behind us. If we can be of further assistance, please email jhills@bluemash.com.
Thanks Julian - we will work on that!
