About Blue Mash Golf Course

Blue Mash Golf Course is an 18-hole public course in Laytonsville, Maryland, managed by KemperSports. Arthur Hills designed the course, which opened in 2001 and plays to 6,885 yards and par 71 from the Gold tees. KemperSports currently publishes a Gold course rating of 73.0 and slope of 134.

The routing deliberately changes character across the property, combining open links-style holes with parkland, wooded and water-influenced sections rather than following one visual template. Bentgrass is used on the tees, fairways and greens. The practice complex includes an all-grass driving range, a 10,000-square-foot putting green and a separate short-game area with bunkers, supported by professional instruction.

Origins

Blue Mash was developed as a public daily-fee course in northern Montgomery County and opened in 2001. Arthur Hills designed the 18-hole layout, creating a par-71 course that reaches 6,885 yards from the Gold tees.

Design Philosophy

Rather than repeat one visual style, Hills varied the routing across the property. KemperSports describes a mixture of links-style, parkland, wooded and water holes. The course uses bentgrass on tees, fairways and greens and offers multiple tee combinations so the same routing can be played at substantially different lengths.

Development

Blue Mash has developed a substantial practice and instruction operation alongside the golf course. The facility includes an all-grass driving range, a 10,000-square-foot putting green and a separate short-game area with sand bunkers. KemperSports currently manages the property.

Recognition

KemperSports reports that GolfPass Golfers' Choice rankings have consistently placed Blue Mash among the top 25 courses in Maryland.

Today

Blue Mash remains a public 18-hole course in Laytonsville, positioned between Washington, D.C. and Baltimore. The course uses dynamic tee-time pricing and supports public play, instruction and practice.
