Compass Pointe offers public golf with two 18-hole golf courses, lots of space for practice and teaching, weekly leagues and Bogey's Grill restaurant.

36 Holes in Pasadena (Not that one)

The four nines at Compass Pointe - North, South, East and West - cover more than 800 acres on the east side of Pasadena, Maryland. The 18 hole Southwest course that combines the South and West nines has five sets of tees and one combo that range in length from 4,520 to 6,979 yards. The Northeast course is slightly longer at 4,856 to 7,134 yards, with the same number of tee options. Frequent golfers can benefit from discounts that come with several levels of "Pointe Pass" membership.

Practice and Learn at Compass Pointe

The driving range at Compass Pointe is open to the public, with grass or mat tees depending on current conditions. If you're looking to learn the game or improve your play, they offer private lessons with Trackman and video, the "Operation 36" classes for adult and junior beginners, and junior golf camp. Several leagues are offered throughout the golf-playing months.
