Not Worth Full Price

I have played this course many times before as it was always reasonably priced and the course was kept in good condition and easy to get on. But boy has this course gone way down hill. When I went to the pro shop I was told I was "lucky" and that GolfNow screwed up their prices for the day. Since I was not aware of any difference in price I asked how much the course should have been and the gentleman replied 60$... I honestly could not believe it. No way in even the prime season would I imagine paying more than the 35$ I paid today to play. I honestly was surprised it was 35$ being its still winter season and the grounds are less then passable for prime play. The biggest issues I had with the course was it was VERY poorly maintained. On hole #1 there were extremely deep and wide tire tracks from I can only imagine some maintenance vehicles ripping the grounds as shown in the pictures. Along with this huge blunder almost every green had missing grass and had humongous divots in them. I will honestly cross this course off any upcoming golf outings and highly suggest going to any other cheaper option out there that actually is worth the money spent

It is what it is

It's a public country club. What do you expect to get from that? With all of that said, it's even cheaper than the county courses. Is it the best maintain course no. But neither are any of the other public courses in the area that charge twice as much. The staff was nice. The accommodations were fine. At the $10 discount from golfnow it was $21 to play 18 with a cart. At that price I don't care as long as you have a tee box and a green. People were expecting this to be some kind of resort style country club and I don't understand that when you're paying $30 to play 18. Go here if you want a cheap simple round. There's not a lot of public options in Anne Arundel county and if you do find them they're going to be 2 to 3 times more expensive. Go play Eisenhower at $90 if for 18. Where the greens and tee boxes are in just as bad of shape. The pace of play is horrendous, all the while being a public course in the county funded by county residents. No thanks

Challenging

ThisThis course poses quite a challenge with its narrow layout. Despite the less-than-ideal weather conditions on a cool and breezy 45-degree day, we managed to make the most of it and had a truly remarkable experience. It's worth noting that Hole 18, a Par 5, is strategically guarded by a total of 4 to 5 bunkers. The overall conditions of the course have been consistently impressive.

Go Elsewhere

This course is not it. The conditions were rather poor and the layout was so odd. The course started as a 9 hole course and the original (planned) 9 are the back 9 from my understanding. They clearly squeezed in the front 9 by meandering through the area and none of it really made sense. The holes were short but very narrow at times so it was kind of challenging. If it was better maintained and tweaked a bit, this could be a decent budget course but as it is, I'd say only go here as a last resort.

Poor shape (bushy greens)

I always enjoy playing a course for the first time, and Walden was no exception. But the bushy slow greens with brown spots was a turnoff. Some holes were to narrow for their own good and needed a crew of lumberjacks. One redeemer was the layout, which was well done.

Greens and bunkers need improvement

Thunder and lightening forced us off the course after 14 holes. Very nice layout where you shouldn’t hit driver off every tee. Bunkers were caked with wet sand that had dried and greens were fungus burnt in may places.

Staff was great and I forced pace of play.
