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.

Blue Mash

One of my favorite spots to play in Moco. Beautiful layout and views. Course is always well maintained and so much fun to play. Lookup Sam in the pro shop, he is top notch and always provides excellent customer service!

Amazing Links Course that is a Must Play

Blue Mash is easily my favorite course in Maryland. The course itself offers a fun and diverse layout of holes and it is always in immaculate shape. The fairways are well maintained and the greens roll true and fast. Besides the great course and course conditions, all of the staff are extremely hospitable and welcoming, which is not something that can be said about most courses (the food and drinks are also amazing). The manager, Sam, has gone out of his way on several occasions to ensure that my group is enjoying the round and truly cares about the experience of every golfer. I would also be remiss to leave out the fact that Blue Mash is reasonably priced and is a lot cheaper than some other “high-end” public courses in MD, such as Whiskey Creek, which does not even have as good of course conditions. Anyone from the DMV area should put Blue Mash on their list of top courses that are worth playing multiple times throughout the year.

Blue Mash has it all!

Due to winter conditions it was cart path only which made it difficult for me to play all holes due to weak knees. The course was in good shape and fun to play. I look forward to going back when it is fully playable. The staff was awesome both in the pro shop and on the course. The GPS on the carts is a plus. Will definitely be back in the spring and plan to return many times. Thanks for a great day.

Great experience

It was my first time playing at blue mash wasn’t sure what to expect but once I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and a warm welcoming. Sam was wonderful great customer service. Was very attentive if we needed anything before we went out. Golf balls gloves tees etc. He wanted to make sure we had everything. Honestly made me feel more confident in my game. Overall the course was beautiful and highly recommend to come and visit you won’t regret it.

Great links type layout

The course was wet but in excellent condition. My group loss a few balls that were center fairway, more than likely plugged. Greens were speedy and rolled true. Beautiful course.

Super helpful and friendly staff

Blue Mash pro shop, grounds, range, beverage cart and restaurant staff are focused on customer service. I enjoy the positive vibes that the staff gives off.

The course is playing great. Aeration in the rough was a bit annoying times, but that’s fall golf for ‘ya…. I will be back. Soon!
