East Potomac Golf Links (also locally known as East Potomac Golf Course or formally as East Potomac Park Golf Center) is a golf course located in East Potomac Park in Washington, D.C., United States. The course includes an 18-hole course, two 9-hole courses, and a miniature golf course.[2] It is the busiest of the city's three golf courses (all of which are publicly owned).[2] The original nine-hole course opened in 1921, and the miniature golf course in 1930 (making it one of the oldest miniature golf courses in the nation).[3] Additional holes opened in stages between 1921 and 1925, leaving the course with 36 holes in all.

Services at East Potomac Golf Links include a pro shop, snack bar, putting greens, three practice holes, and a two-tiered, 100-stall driving range (26 of which are heated).[1] The course is generally flat and easy, although drainage can be poor.[1] The views of the city's many monuments and memorials from the course at East Potomac are considered some of the best in the city.[2]
