Clustered Spires Golf Club was established in 1991, as the first public
golf course in Frederick County. The 185 acres on which Clustered Spires is
located on what was formally a working dairy farm, set along the side of
the Monocacy River. The Monocacy River surrounds the golf course on 3
sides, creating a beautiful setting while providing a natural barrier from
outside distractions. Clustered Spires received its name from the grouping
of 5 very old and distinct church steeples that make up the clustered
spires of Frederick City’s skyline. The respected design team of Ault Clark
was hired to create a first class championship golf course for the people
of Frederick. The concept was to create a fun and enjoyable course from the
regular tees but a challenging competitive course reaching almost 7000
yards long from the back tees. Clustered Spires, though in a rural setting,
is only 2 miles from downtown Frederick City, making Clustered Spires very
conveniently located. With a county population of 300,000 and 13 golf
courses, Clustered Spires has earned ” Best of Frederick Golf Course” for
the 3rd straight year and our 17th time out of 20 years! Golf Digest awards
Clustered Spires a 4 star rating. Clustered Spires reputation is a great
conditioned golf course with wonderful greens and considered the best value
golf course in central Maryland.
The second event of our ASGA 2021 season is scheduled for Saturday, April
10, as Clustered Spires in Frederick, Maryland. For those that have not
played the course before, it is a very playable course, with ample space
for errant tee shots. This makes it perfect for early season golf.
