Blue Mash Golf Course
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.

Challenging links style course
Course was in great shape and the pace of play was great.
Excellent Course Conditions and Friendly Staff
I have played at Blue Mash several times and the course conditions have always been excellent. Also, the staff are very friendly and helpful.
Course Review
It was so cold that day. Fairways are ok but the greens have partially recovered from aeration holes. Putts were bouncy and balls go in unknown directions.
Great place to play
Really enjoy blue mash every time I play. Greens were recently aerated, but had already started to recover pretty well.
Definitely recommend and come again.
Most Fun I've Had In A While
Great conditions, great mixed use of course design: parkland, wooded, water, and links is all present which is a huge plus plus plus! I played blue tees (~6500 yards) which was enough to rip the driver on all needed holes, and the design is fair enough that there isn't really long carries off the tees for beginners. Extremely walkable course; great pace--we finished our foursome in 4.0 hours. Greens where punched/sanded, but I knew that ahead of time, and they were in better shape than expected.
What Happened to Blue Mash??
Sorry Kemper Sports, you have failed this great course, which was a US Open qualifier a few years ago. No rakes in traps, no sand in carts, way too many ball marks to fix and the fairways are a disaster - I hope you can recover in time for summer but right now this looks like a well below average course that has lost is luster. Our group dod play fast, however no excuse for the group that started behind us to be on #10 when we were on #18
Beautiful
We played here middle of the week in the off season so there was great pace of play, staff was super friendly and the course was amazing. We will be back
Great Golf Course!
First time playing this course. Had a great time playing. Everyone on staff was very friendly and very helpful. Definitely coming back!
Nice layout. Good for all skill levels.
Fairways and tee boxes in great shape especially given the wet weather. Nice layout. Friendly off the tee, but the large greens have some big contours making reading tricky. Course has some teeth off of the back tees. Sam, in the pro shop, was great.
Great course, bad value
Too expensive for the time of year for the quality of the tees, fairways, and greens. It's winter--no reason this course should cost over $100 for 18 & a (needing updated) cart.
Blue Mash -Fall 2023
Always a great place to play. Course layout is fun and the greens were in amazing shape. Staff was extremely helpful, it was a rainy day and I was one of maybe 10 folks on the grounds that afternoon, but everyone was in great spirits and got me out there without any issue. Excellent practice facility (all grass driving range, well manicured putting green, and chipping area). It’s always my favorite place to play when I take a break from the Montgomery County rotation of courses, and definitely a step up in experience without having to drive all the way out to Frederick.
