Hunt Valley Country Club

Frequently Asked Questions

Which hole at Hunt Valley will really test my game?

I'd point to the par-4 14th; it's a beast. You'll need a precise drive to avoid the creek on the left, followed by an uphill approach to a well-guarded green. Don't be afraid to take an extra club on that second shot.

Is Hunt Valley Country Club accessible to non-members?

Hunt Valley is primarily a private club, so you'll need to play as a guest of a member. We recommend reaching out to any connections you might have or inquiring about charity tournaments that occasionally open up tee times. It's worth the effort to experience these greens.

When is the ideal time of year to experience Hunt Valley's course conditions?

For truly prime conditions, target late spring, usually May through early June, or early fall in September. The bentgrass greens are at their purest then, and the fairways are lush without the intense summer heat. You'll find the course playing firm and fast, just how it should be.

What's the post-round experience like at Hunt Valley's clubhouse?

The clubhouse at Hunt Valley has a classic, welcoming feel. We always head straight for the patio overlooking the 18th green for a cold drink and some excellent crab dip. It's the perfect spot to relive your best shots and commiserate over the misses.

What's a unique feature or local tip for playing Hunt Valley Country Club?

Pay close attention to the subtle undulations on the greens; they often break more than they appear, especially around the edges. Also, take a moment on the 7th tee to appreciate the panoramic views of the valley-it's a real highlight of the front nine.
