Becoming a favorite track!

Really starting to like this course. The greens are coming in after aerating. Always enjoy the layout! The staff has put together an all-around great golf experience!

Winter Golf

Even under winter conditions, the course was great. Be advised, par 3s have mats as tee boxes between yardage of white/red markers. However, this was okay and good way to maintain tee boxes. I would say, perhaps add a mat between white/blue tee box yardage.

No notice of 1 hour 20 min frost delay - did not play

Horrible experience. Drove from Gaithersburg to Frederick and checked in at 12:55 for a 1:30 pm tee time and was informed that they had a 1 hour 20 minute frost delay and that I would not be able to tee off until close to 3 pm and thus not make 18 holes. They had my number - could they not have called and given me notice? Will not bother to make a tee time here in the future.

Good course

Had a great time on this course. The fairways and greens were well manicured. Bermuda grass made it super nice feel when striking the ball

Great track!

Great little course!
Cart path only slowed the pace of play considerably. It had apparently range of the previous night. Marshall allowed us to scatter after the 14th hole on the back nine.

time for play

Course was good but pace of play was something else. We budgeted 4.5 hours and it took over 3 to play the front 9. Really need some marshals to get players moving.

A Round at Clustered Spires

From the driving range, chipping area and practice green, to the course itself, we thoroughly enjoyed our round at Clustered Spires. A friend from out of town marveled at how green the fairways are, despite the blistering heat lately. The greens were immaculate. Our friend commented that he would definitely like to play at Clustered Spires again!
