Golf Courses in Maryland
Maryland's golf landscape includes 160 named courses and country clubs distributed across 149 cities and 24 counties, according to data drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System—the federal government's authoritative gazetteer of named geographic features. The directory provides a location-based reference for identifying and mapping facilities by their municipal and county positions.
Because GNIS functions as a catalog of named geographic features rather than a registry of active businesses, the directory represents a partial and time-delayed snapshot of the state's golf infrastructure. Newly established courses or recently renamed facilities may not yet appear in the federal database, and the system does not track operational details such as public or private status, fee structures, or course layout specifications. Those seeking to locate a specific course should use this directory to identify candidates by city and county, then contact the facility directly or visit its website to verify current hours of operation, pricing, and availability for play.
How to use the Maryland directory
Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.
