The 145-acre play, acquired by the state of Delaware in 2005, is a par-70, 6,323-yard golf course that features rolling terrain, smooth bent grass putting surfaces and scenic vistas. The mix of memorable, distinctive holes adds to the difficulty, as does the memorable, heavily wooded setting and dramatic elevation changes. Before or after your round at Deerfield Golf Club, enjoy the large putting green, full-service practice range, or lighted tennis and paddleball courts.

Good April round.
I played in a threesome on a Wednesday morning in April. It was my first look at the course this year. It was in very good condition. The fairways and rough were appropriately lush, and the greens were surprisingly fast. We were playing at about a 4 hour pace, but 2 of the groups in front of us stopped after 9 holes, so we scooted on the back nine. It was a hot day, so I enjoyed a club sandwich and a cold beer afterwards. Very good.
Be prepared
Very challenging course, the only flat lies were on the tee box.
Lots of hills
The course was in very good condition for this time of year. The greens are mostly recovered from the winter aeration
Worth playing
Challenging couse. Good condition. Friendly staff.
Tuff Course
Very tough course. If you can get good on this course, you’ll be a master at all other courses.
Very nice course
I like to walk it was a little bit difficult, but it was OK
Beautiful course, very challenging for a newer golfer. We really enjoyed playing there and will be back.
