The best courses you can play in Maryland

“Could be better if it wasn’t so over played. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens are ravaged by too many players going through before the course can recover. And the staff/starter brags about how many people come through in a day.”

“Used to be one of the purest courses in OCMD, they have let it go a little because of how many tee times they allow. Still a beautiful track, but they need to offer less tee times to give the course time to breathe.”

“Quirky but fun and challenging course. Good conditions, pure greens. Some great views. Routing was a little odd at times and par 5s were less gettable than the rating would assume. I’d argue rated a tad too easy with hazards littered all over”

“Back nine layout is pretty awesome esp par 4 18th with water left, several risk reward holes and a twisty par 5.”

“Very nice public access daily fee course. Cool layout Interesting holes. Course conditions were a little spotty but this was Sept and it was likely coming off a wet humid summer.”

“Conditions are wonderful out here just a funky layout. A lot of the holes feel on top of each other and the hazard placement is almost unenjoyable. My biggest complaint about a course is when you hit good shots and don’t get rewarded.”

“Good public course that has unfortunately skyrocketed in price and maintenance has plummeted.”

“The crew has done an amazing job keeping this county course in tip top shape through a brutal summer with multiple floods They just completely sodded the fourth fairway to help with some of the flooding and it’s in great shape.”

“The gradual build up of getting further into the wetlands is such a rewarding feeling. Incredible scenery with a mix of unique, exacting holes that require accuracy over distance. Exact style of course that I want to play when I am on vacation.”

“Note: this review is of the course back when I last played in 2023. Currently the course has taken a step back by all accounts. Lodestone is an example of how to properly do a mountain course. Extreme elevation changes, large green sites, and heavily tree lined.”
