Memorial Day Round

First off, I’m hesitant to speak as highly as I want about Mtn Branch only because I love the course and want to keep it on the DL. LOL. Simply put one of best tracks in MD. Always in excellent shape, a tough yet very fun layout all around, and outstanding service provided by employees. From the course starter & pro shop to the cart crews. Love playing here and will absolutely keep coming back.

Golf Now is terrible

Had a friend test positive for Covid and still has to pay for him to not be able to show up to the golf course. Golf Now won’t refund my money. Won’t use the service any more

It’s only March and it’s 75 out

Great to grab a Hot Deal and a 20% off here. Got off early, course was in the best shape I’ve seen it and it’s only March, everything is cut back, so if you spray the ball, play now, will be brutal later. Tee boxes, fairway and greens in great shape. Good to see this track being taking care of.

Old mountain branch

Course conditions have slipped like that had in past years. Thought they were onto a new method that was maintaining peak condition all months of the years. Some tee boxes were essentially dirt and many fairways scorched. Not as bad as I’ve ever seen it, but I was sad to see the conditions regressed. Still very playable and greens were still solid.

great course!

I loved the course layout, very challenging tee to green. Only thing I didn’t care for was the green speed. Pretty slow and tough to read.
