Maryland National Golf Club

Great course layout in a beautiful setting, with a great staff.

Top Drawer from start to finish! Was greeted at the bag drop by friendly staff who took care of my bag from the trunk, and back to the trunk at the end of the round. The clubhouse staff where very cordial and unpretentious.

The course condition is pristine and challenging! The greens are fast, but they all roll true.
Had an outstanding afternoon in the sun, the rolling hills and valleys and scenic overlooks are postcard perfect

This course has the best greens and staff of any course in the metropolitan DC area. Takes me about an hour to get there but well worth the trip. The greens are so good we were lucky it rained hard the night before because when it's dry they are really fast for an amateur golfer. Will definitely continue to drive an hour to play this course

Great course for this area. Be prepared though, it is on the higher end of the scale price wise. I got a round here on a hot deal for $30, which was 60% off. Carts are awesome with the GPS but the yardage isn't always right on. The designer did not forget the sand on this one so if you are not accurate off the tee, be prepared to rake half your day away. lol. Overall though, a beautiful course across from my childhood home that is definitely a must play in the Frederick area.

I can't wait to play this couse again. The fairways and greens are in excellent condition. The layout is very challenging.

The rolling hills, beautiful kept course made our first time out to MD Nat'l just fantastic!

Even if I didn't get a great deal from golfnow, this course is worth the money. Excellent service, nice carts with GPS and club head cleaner. The practice facility is very nice. The surrounding countryside is beautiful. Put it all together and it makes for a great overall experience! Not to mention the expertly maintained greens and fairways. This course rivals private clubs in my opinion.

Greens and fairways were in pristine condition but, many of the bunkers needed attention in a bad way...

We arrived on a Sunday afternoon, were treated to complimentary range balls, and were able to begin 10 minutes ahead of our tee time. To our great delight, the next group in front of us was 20 minutes ahead. We caught them by the 9th hole but still played in 3 hours and 20 minutes, an unheard of time on a weekend. The course is scenic and features dramatic elevation changes. A solid mix of long and short holes, local knowledge is a plus. I hit several shots that I deemed perfect only to find the ball had run into an unseen hazard. Hole #16 is a little goofy, but it did not spoil the experience. The course was groomed perfectly. One of the best places to play in Maryland.

Excellent facility. Grass range with chipping/putting area. Course is semi links style but gets tight in areas. Greens were rolling true and fast when I played, fairways in great shape.

Great course, tough tough driving the ball. Very tight. Pretty much takes the driver out of play. And from the tips there's a few long par 4's. The greens were at a good pace. But didn't seem to hold pro V's all that well. Range was on mats which for a course of this quality was a let down. But they have a great GPS system which gave great yardage.

Good time. Played pretty poorly but next time around this track I'd expect to play better.

Have a good time out there

Good mix of holes and tee options. Some extreme elevation changes and blind shots though. Back nine is short and more narrow. Need local knowledge and precision tee shots to score well. Some very high rough in spots to catch wayward shots. Very good overall conditioning tees, fairways, greens and bunkers. Very Good golfer comforts like cold drinking water, GPS in carts, putting green, practice green, and driving range.

I found a great hot time and made the hour and change trek out here to play. I ended up playing as a single since I was one of the few brave souls willing to endure the 100 something degree heat. Fairways and greens were some of the best I have seen in the last couple years. The greens were really quick but not burnt out and the grass around the greens was in fantastic shape. I was extremely impressed with course and I plan on coming back discount or not to try and score a little better now that I know what danger lurks around some of the corners and blindspots. The short game area was great to utilize and the range is nice, but I really don't like hitting off mats prior to a round but for the value and money spent I would say it's a non factor. I grabbed a snack and couple powerades in the clubhouse and it looks really nice. The staff inside was monotone and bleh, but nothing to write about, but the people outside enduring the heat were great. the attendant when I pulled up was over the top friendly and took some time to talk about the course and the cart girl was courteous and all over the course with a constant smile.

Course was in good shape and fun to play and very challenging.

I absolutely love this track. Perfect mix of challenge and beauty with tee boxes, fairways, and greens that are always in perfect condition. My only two conerns would be the following:

1. Inconstancy in the green side bunkers: For the most part the bunkers at the course are very fair. However, I seem to find every greenside bunker that has hard un-groomed sand. These bunkers could use a slight overhaul.

2. The signature tree that splits the fairway on the Par 5 second is gone. Very sad, as this was a beautiful looking hole from atop the hill. I hope MD National chooses to put another vertical obstacle in its place. I heard that they were thinking of making it a bunker. The problem is w/o the vertical obstacle, the hole becomes way too accessible for a par 5. It becomes a long, but all downhill, par 4.

Great course! Challenging but fair, with lots of scoring opportunities as long as you hit targets off of the tee. The greens & fairways were in perfect condition. I honestly can't critisize a single thing about the course.

MD National played fast and firm this past weekend. WOW. Unbelievably difficult under those conditions. You dont need to be a big hitter here, as the course doesnt play long at all, but you have to be deadly accurate into the greens or pay a price. Up and downs are limited. This course is very difficult and plays about 5 shots harder that any other track in my rotation. Consider moving up a set of tees to make your round more enjoyable.

Perfect condition, awesome layout, challenging, but fair, surrounded by mountain views, one of my favorite local courses

Golf at its finest. A must play for any serious golfer within 100 miles. Drove 1 hour and 45 minutes to play after getting ANOTHER incredible deal through GolfNow. Afterwards we agreed to return even at full price!

The course has it all. Elevation changes, mounded fairways, awesome par 3's, short drive-able 4's, long 3 shot par 5's, just a great layout. The course was is great shape. Perfect tee boxes, well maintained fairways and thick rough. The greens were great, they were receptive to well hit irons and kept their speed even in the rain. Pick the right tee boxes, whites were a little short but still challenging, probably should have played the gold. Next time!!!

enjoyed the course enough that I will definitely play again, thought the pace of play was reasonable for the crowd on hand
