Potomac Ridge - Ridge Course
About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business.
Potomac Ridge is one of southern Maryland's most popular golfing destinations. With easy access from both Prince George's and Charles Counties as well as Alexandria and and Annapolis, the course is a favorite among locals and visitors. It's also conveniently located near National Harbor and it's less than 20 miles from downtown D.C. The golf course is made up of 27 holes that are divided into the Hollow, Meadows, and Ridge nines. The Ridge nine was added nearly a decade after the other two nines. It was also designed by Tom Walker while the original 18-hole course is an Tom Clark design. The Ridge Course is the second longest of the three nines at 3,372 yards but it's only shorter than the Hollow nine by three yards. It's the most challenging nine but they are all player friendly enough to appeal to low and high handicappers alike.

Marshals need to speed up slow groups. Our round of golf was 5 1/2 hours because of one slow foursome 3 groups ahead of us.

Didn't like having to tee off into the rough 15 out o f 18 holes. If you have a bad tee shot, you lose your ball instantly. Definiitely not a course for beginner golfers!
Price matches quality
Greens were in good shape, pace of play pretty standard for a public track, bunkers could use some improvements
Great
It was an awesome day for golf and the coarse was in excellant shape!
Thanks
