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.

Great Course, Great Friends, Great Time
Played Blue Mash for the first time today. The course was in great condition, course staff were very friendly, cart lady was amazing. I highly recommend this course if you are looking for high quality golf.
James’ Review of Blue Mash
This course was very well tended with very interesting and challenging holes. The staff was very friendly and visible throughout the course. Would recommend
Thanks James!
Too stacked
It was a really nice course and I would likely go back but maybe during the week next time. We went on a Sunday and they really stacked up foursomes so we spent most of the time waiting on the people in front of us and the people behind us were playing up really close on our group. Really took away from the enjoyment of the game. So much so we didn’t even go out for the back half.
Thank you for coming to Blue Mash over the weekend. We apologize and acknowledge the slow play Sunday evening. We had a few slow groups that created a back up. Our course advisor worked with them through the back 9 to keep rounds under 4.5 hours. Please reach out to jhines@bluemash.com, I would like to offer you a discount on your next visit. Thank you.
Good course, was slow this time
I normally really like Blue Mash -- layout, conditions, people, pace of play.
But this time it was terribly slow on the front and we actually had to re-play the front because the back was so jammed up. That's either over-booking or not enough marshals watching and moving people along.
They aerated ~8/22 but I knew that and greens were ok, as expected (7 out of 10) a week later.

Don't leave a club behind !! You'll never see it again!!
In the past year and a half I have lost/ had taken and not returned 2 clubs!! Year or so ago left a pitching wedge greenside-- didn't realize it for 4-5 holes, backtracked 5-6 holes asking and checked with clubhouse - never saw again. Same exact thing yesterday but an 8 iron this time. I've only lost and not recovered 3 clubs in my 30+ years of golf - 2 of them here within a year Like the course and staff but won't be back due to the seemingly classless dregs it seems to attract.
Hi, sorry about the lost clubs - I know how frustrating that can be. If you will email jhills@bluemash.com with the details on the clubs I will take another look through our inventory. Sometimes they show up later, for some reason.
All the best,
Will come back when the greens are all healed up
The greens were aerated so can't really comment on the course condition too much. We'll be back next month to see it in normal condition. Difficult but fair layout. Course management is key to scoring well.
Great conditions
A lot of play but very well maintained. Groups on every hole but pace was great. Outstanding.
Poorly Maintained
I was really disappointed today. The tee boxes and greens are some of the most poorly maintained I have experienced in my 25 years of golf.
We acknowledge that #18 white tee box is showing some wear, and a few greens in the woods have some extra ball marks and wear around the cups at times, but are otherwise a bit confused over the severity of this criticism, as most of the course seems to be in very good condition, especially considering it is the end of severe summer heat. All the best to you my good sir,
We are sorry you did not enjoy your round, though we are perplexed by the comments. We would be happy to offer you a free round if you would drive around with us and show us one tee or green on this golf course that is in poor condition. All the best,
Mismanaged
Possibly the most mismanaged course in the area. There's a problem every time I play. Slow play on weekends, lack of marshals, useless staff, or clueless managers, poor greens. Blue Mash can't seem to get it's act together.
We strive to give players the best level of service available. It seems we have missed the mark a few times with you. We would like to makes this right and understand more about your experience here at Blue Mash. Please email jhines@bluemash.com to discuss further. Thanks.
Good value
The greens were battered with ball marks that people don’t fix. Other than that, I enjoyed the course as always.
Thank you!
Professional staff. Great course layout.
Courteous, professional staff. Convenient practice facility. Challenging but fair course. Only suggestion is that cart path only rules for par 4s should only be applied when absolutely necessary to protect the fairways.
Thank you! When it comes to turf grass damage, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
