Around D.C. & Baltimore
The most notable course in Washington, D.C. is the Congressional Country Club, home to multiple U.S. Open championships and a sanctuary to U.S. Presidents, Senators, Congressman, top government officials, wealth creators, oil barons and other members of Washington's elite. On our golf trip across Baltimore and Washington DC we also visited a fabulous Stay & Play golf resort, The Golf Club at Lansdowne, home to two 18-holes championship courses created by world-renowned course designers Robert Trent Jones and Greg Norman.
