Opened in 1923, Reading Country Club is one of the area's oldest golf courses. Located less than a half hour from King of Prussia, the course is easily accessible from anywhere in the greater Berks County area. Though it has a traditional layout that doesn't have the length that most modern courses do, that hasn't stopped it from being one of the most challenging public golf courses in Berks County. The rolling terrain provides a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. The course will test you with lightning fast, undulating greens that are protected by sand traps and there is punishing rough bordering the narrow, tree-lined fairways. Be prepared for uphill shots and blind approaches throughout the golf course. Reading Country Club's par 3s are especially notable for their difficulty.

Terrible golf club

Would never recommend anyone there again , they kick groups off course if you accidentally hit a house while driving with no refunds and then pro shop talks to you with no respect and if you say anything back they say your arguing. Scared little white men who enjoy the power they have there.

Good condition and Country Club Service

The course was in great condition. The course design was a mix of challenging and holes that gave you peace of mind. The amenities and service by the staff was great. Would highly recommend to others. Course is a little on the short and narrow side compared to others courses in the area.

Reading CC is ready

Reading may not be long for some hitters but some challenging greens and slopes can bring folks back to reality. The course has undergone a revitalization under new ownership and if you haven't played this in the last year or two, you should give it another chance. The greens were in good shape and good speeds.

Very Impressed!

This place was in great shape (especially the greens) and was great value for money. The staff was nice as well. Would recommend and we both agreed we want to go back.

Very Nice Course and Staff

No complaints. New GPS system! Bar being closed on a holiday Monday was a bummer but didn't take away from my overall enjoyment of the round.

Excellent Value for the Money

Historic course with some gorgeous views, and challenging shots. The cart paths were bumpy and course signage for a first time guest were not well marked. Overall, this was an outstanding experience at public prices. You can’t beat that!

Course is in ok shape for almost closing a couple years ago

Woman friendly tees but we do deserve a legit tee box not just markers place anywhere. Golf carts are nice with GPS and lots of information. The course layout is nice but the tee boxes and fairways can use some love.

Excellent condition

Course is in excellent condition, greens are almost fully recovered from aeration. Rough is VERY rough! Accuracy is a premium here and play the fairway slopes to try to keep the ball from rolling into the rough.

Reading Country Club

Had a very enjoyable round of golf! It looks like they've been putting a lot of money back into the facilities. They have a brand new fleet of golf carts that have sophisticated GPS-technology computer tablets built in. The greens were aerated during the previous week and were healing nicely as my putts were rolling true.

The Tee Off App alerted me about the aeration AHEAD of my placing my reservation and the Hot Deal pricing reflected a substantial discount. I would definitely play here again.
