About
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.

Course is in great shape!
The course was in great shape and the pace of play was very good. It was a bit costly compared to other area courses.
Spring
New tee boxes were great. Greens were amazing. Staff was
helpful as always
Beautiful day out
First beautiful day of the spring. Good conditions. A little slow but nothing too bad. A great course that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Nice Day
The guy in the pro shop was great
The course was under winter repair but was still in good shape.
Great course
Course was in great shape, challenging but fair. Staff, especially Sam, was kind and friendly. Sam went above and beyond for us! Thank you!
Always fun
You need every club in the bag and that makes it fun.
Memorable for all the right reasons
I’ll preface this review with the fact that myself and three friends played this course in mid-November with the temperature hovering around 30 degrees and a wind that dropped the real feel to the teens. Yet, foolishly or otherwise, we ventured on, playing all 18 holes and finishing as the sun set.
The course, even in this weather, was maintained incredibly. The greens felt at summer speeds, you could take chunks out of the fairway without feeling like your clubs or hands would snap instead of the cold ground giving way. The staff was incredibly helpful, providing food and assistance quickly and with care.
The layout is also wonderful. For a player of my caliber, a nice open fairway to find my shanked balls are always appreciated. Yet this course doesn’t cater to the newbie, with smart bunker placement, tough greens, and long par 5s it can be a challenge to most.
Overall this course is high on my list of MD destinations. I will 100% be returning in the spring/summer for more rounds.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!!
Great Conditions
The course was in phenomenal shape. This was our first time coming here and we were more than pleased with the overall quality of the course, as well as the difficult challenge some holes played. The staff were also very friendly and they had great bar service. I would recommend anyone to come play this wonderful course.
Nice place, friendly staff
Lots of marshalls on the course keeping pace. Good time.
Ehhh...
Not bad but not a great value proposition right now. Too expensive for a 5 hour round in November on a weekday. Leaves all over some holes. The course is okay... At this price wait till summer.
Hi, we are sorry we did not meet your expectations. I do see researching our records that we had one group at 4:40 and a few others slow as well. We agree that is too long. If we can be of further assistance in a more specific manner, please email jhills@bluemash.com. Thanik you!!
Thank you for your feedback. I'd like to apologize for pace of play on Wednesday. We had a course advisor assisting a slow group for a large part of the day. We gave out coupons to groups that were effected by the slow group. Please contact jhines@bluemash.com, I'd like to offer you a more concrete level of apology for your experience this week. I look forward to speaking with you.
