Musket Ridge Golf Club
About Musket Ridge Golf Club
Musket Ridge Golf Club sits in the foothills of the Catoctin Mountains, spread across more than 150 acres of rolling terrain with wide panoramic views of the surrounding Maryland countryside.
The course was the last design completed by architect Joe Lee, who shaped the layout around the property's natural contours. Undulating greens, distinctive bunkering and hazards made visible from elevated tee boxes are recurring features, beginning with a dramatic elevated tee shot on the opening hole.

The two nines, named the Blue and the Ridge, rise and fall with the land: some holes play along high ground, others are benched into the slope, and a few run through a meadow. Four sets of tees are available, and risk-and-reward options appear throughout the round.
