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.

Value for Money

After 10 years of not playing at Blue Mash (I moved from MD to VA) I returned last week and am glad I did. First, if you are a senior (like I am), you get a discount on the green fees (mine was a $20 discount). Second, you get to play a great Arthur Hills design which was in great shape. Third, while they request that 2 people share a cart, they do not force it which is reassuring if you are paired with someone you don’t know. Fourth, very friendly pro shop staff and the young man who was starter that day could not have been more helpful. Needless to say, I will be playing there more often in 2021.

Conditions excellent, some staff and pace of play could use help

Couldn't ask for much more in terms of conditions for early November. Greens rolling pretty fast and true, fairways pretty good despite evidence of heavy play. Most bunkers playable too. Bat staff very friendly, helpful and fast. Only downsides were pace of play due to group immediately in front and a less than warm welcome in the pro shop in the a.m. Afternoon crew much better and very helpful in booking another time next week.

Bunkers Beware

While the course is usually in pretty good condition, this day was not one. I can appreciate the care and anticipation of the forecasted rain helping the maintain the course, so the super decided to blast each green with sand. Some were unputtable and none ran consistent. Again, all understandable, but at no point was this "spur of the moment" sanding ever listed or announced, even when checking in for the round. Had I not called after hole 1, I'm all but certain, nothing would have been said, only to be offered a $10 discount for my next round. No one else in my group were offered this $10 discount or knew about the sandy greens, but all complained about it.

Personally, I don't believe it was spur of the moment, because one, sand had to be available, two; the rain was in the forecast and three; maintenance is scheduled (not spur of the moment) for the most part.

Great day at Blue Mash

Wonderful course in great condition. Challenging golf course with opportunities to score. Greens in great shape. Fall colors beginning to shine through. Perfect rainy day on the Links.

Love blue mash

Country club course quality on a public course. Fairways in great shape. Greens tough today due to pin placement.

btw they now charge for range balls. They were gratis since they opened until just a few weeks ago. They have grass practice range which is great.

lots of people ...

the facilities are great but lots of people just there to use driving range, chipping, and putting surface. Be prepared and dont think it is over crowded.
