Patriots Glen National Golf Club

About Patriots Glen National Golf Club

This public track in Elkton sits in an interesting spot geographically. You're practically straddling the Maryland-Delaware border, with easy access from both Baltimore and Wilmington. The layout takes advantage of some rolling terrain that's more varied than you'd expect for this part of the Chesapeake region, though the course doesn't have the signature holes or memorable features that would make it a destination play. Walking is permitted, which is increasingly rare at public courses in this price range, and the pace of play tends to be reasonable during weekdays. The 3.7 Google rating from nearly 500 reviews tells you what you need to know. This is solid, unspectacular golf that gets the job done without creating lasting memories. Conditioning can be inconsistent depending on the season, and while the course is never going to wow you with dramatic elevation changes or water features, it's honest golf that won't beat you up unfairly. If you're in the area and need a round, Patriots Glen will scratch the itch, but I wouldn't drive more than 30 minutes out of your way to play it.
