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.

Don’t come here.. shhh

This is a golfer’s club. Muscular, varied and windy. The greens are true but protect the course admirably. If you are a higher handicap, play forward or don’t bother..the course will chew you up. On the other hand, if you are a golfer, come play. You’ll have a great time.

Ok

Course overall was in good condition. I’m about an 11 handicap and played from the mixed blue and white tees. Pace of play was Terrible for the first 11 holes or so. Apparently there was no marshal out to regulate . Group in front of us called the pro shop and they promptly came out to try and pick up the pace. Last few holes played well as far as pace was concerned. In my opinion this is not an almost $80 a round course. Booked through golf now on a hot deal and paid $54 for my round which I was ok with.

Sorry about the pace, we were short staffed that day - our fault. We will schedule up for the late afternoon so that it doesn't happen again. Cheers.

I’ve been holding out on Blue Mash for a while, which I totally regret. Staff was great, course was even better. The only course I’ve heard of that waits until June to aerate so golfers can enjoy their greens throughout the spring. Will be back!

RELAXING RETREAT

I found this course using "Golf Now", and I was extremely satisfied with my round. The cost vs. quality was definitely in good balance. I enjoyed the track, and the amenities as well. In all, I'd love to play here again. Given the area, and the weather, this course was in great shape. Challenging for any level, and a lot of fun! I will definitely be back.

Early Spring Tune-Up Round

Given the time of year, the course was in great condition and looking forward to when the weather gets better and the greens can start to be maintained. The foursome in front were first group out and should have been the "rabbits" setting the pace...played front in 2+ hours...too slow. Great job by staff keeping debris and leaves clear, obviously doing a lot of caretaker maintenance in the winter. The course will be back to peak form in just a couple of weeks.

Great course

Despite the weather being cold and windy, it was still an enjoyable round of golf. The layout is diverse but not too challenging. Will definitely be back.
