Golf in Silver Spring

Silver Spring is Montgomery County's most urban community, a dense inner suburb adjacent to Washington that has evolved into a genuine urban center with a walkable downtown, transit hub, and diverse population that makes it feel more like a city neighborhood than a suburb. Three golf facilities serve the area's recreational market: Argyle Country Club, a private institution; Leisure World Golf Course, serving the large age-restricted retirement community; and Sligo Golf Course, the county's accessible recreational option along Sligo Creek. Silver Spring's position on the Red Line Metro puts it at the center of Montgomery County's transit network, and the stream valleys of Sligo Creek and Rock Creek provide natural green corridors through an otherwise intensely developed urban landscape.
