About this course

Patuxent Greens Country Club sits in Laurel, Maryland, a city positioned between Baltimore and Washington, D.C. in the central Maryland corridor. The course was designed by Russell Roberts, a regional architect active in the Mid-Atlantic during the latter decades of the twentieth century. The layout occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the Piedmont region, where the land transitions from the coastal plain toward higher elevations to the west. The course serves a membership drawn largely from the surrounding suburban communities, offering a traditional country club experience with golf as the central amenity. The routing works through mature tree-lined corridors, with elevation changes that add variety to the shotmaking demands. Water features and strategically placed bunkers provide definition to the holes, while the tree canopy frames fairways and creates distinct playing corridors. Patuxent Greens operates as a semi-private facility, balancing member play with limited public access. The club maintains dining and social facilities typical of country clubs in the region, supporting both golf-centered activities and family-oriented events. The course reflects the design sensibilities of its era, emphasizing playability for a range of skill levels while preserving enough challenge to engage accomplished players. Its location within the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area places it among numerous courses serving the region's substantial golfing population.

Getting there

Patuxent Greens Country Club sits within easy reach of Washington Dulles International (IAD) and Baltimore-Washington International (BWI), both roughly 45 minutes to an hour north of Laurel, Maryland. The drive south from either airport carries you through the suburban corridors of the Washington metropolitan area before the landscape softens into the rolling terrain of central Maryland, where the Patuxent River valley begins to assert its quieter character. For those with access to private aviation, nearby facilities such as Tipton Airport offer a more discreet arrival into the region. The final miles to the club unfold along tree-lined roads that signal the transition from urban sprawl to the manicured grounds of this established community course, where a warm welcome awaits at the clubhouse entrance.
