County-owned, publicly-playable, comfortably-long and scenically-pleasing golf on Kent Island in the Chesapeake Bay.

Island Golf in the Chesapeake Bay

Blue Heron Golf Course is a public "executive" course on Kent Island in the Chesapeake Bay. We've found that the definition of an "executive length" course varies, in this case it refers to an 18-hole layout that plays to a par of 63. That works out to an even mix of nine par 3 holes and nine par 4's. Three sets of tees play from 3,378 to 4,130 yards. The length, the configuration and the flat island terrain make it a very walkable course. Blue Heron is owned and operated by the Queen Anne's County Department of Parks & Recreation.

A Little Bit of Course History

The original course was only nine holes and opened in 1959. Course architect Richard Mandell was hired to redevelop the site as an 18-hole course which opened in 2002. A minimalist approach was used for the design, resulting in a layout with a maximum "altitude" of only 20 feet.

Garmin Approach S12 Golf Watch

This caddy on your wrist knows distances for over 42,000 courses. We doubt that Bones Mackay can even claim to have that much knowledge. And the Approach S12 is a bit cheaper than hiring Bones.
