About
Delaware Golf Club sprawls across rolling countryside that lends an idyllic and secluded setting. Donald Ross designed the original nine holes in 1922 and they were later joined by a second nine designed by Michael Hurzdan in 1998. The layout meanders through wooded valleys and ravines. The rolling fairways are fairly wide but they are lined with mature trees and bunkers heavily guard the small, undulating greens. There are also water hazards that come into play on a number of holes. Delaware Golf Club's second hole is notably challenging, it is arguably the toughest hole on the front nine. This par-4 requires not only accuracy in order to avoid the ravine on the left but also distance to carry the lake and remain in the angled fairway. Golfers will be faced with one of the most difficult putts on the golf course if their approach finds the wrong side of the green.

Golfer Reviews
Great course but SLOW!
The course is always in great shape but unfortunately, that is often ruined by the pace of play. The last 2 rounds I've played have taken over 5 hours. For a 4 o'clock Sunday tee time, we didn't tee off on #1 until 430. No starter or ranger to be found.
Feels like 2 separate golf courses
The original 9 holes of this course is an older Donald Ross design that makes up the back 9. The front 9 of this course feels more modern and similar to most private clubs I’ve played. The course is challenging and fun but the off course amenities are lacking. They have a bar and a few food items available but nothing to write home about.
Thank you for visiting us at Delaware Golf Club. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
GREAT COURSE
I had a great time playing this course. Best set up I’ve played all year.
We're so glad you had such a great time at the course! Thanks so much for the wonderful review and rating!
Thanks so much for taking the time to rate us 4 stars! We really appreciate you coming out the course and hope to have you back again soon!
Golf Cart Problem
Were told we had to put 2 people in each cart whether they had a plastic divider or not or pay $10 extra to have a single rider in a cart. Where is their 6 ft social distancing?
Hi Shirley. We are working hard to maintain social distancing practices, and ensure the safety and well being of all who come to our course. We appreciate your feedback, and encourage you to reach out to our golf shop with any other concerns. Thanks so much!
Beautiful fairways and Greens
All the recent rain has created a big challenge for clubs to keep up with the mowing. DGC is no different; nevertheless, the fairways and greens were excellent but the edges where the fairway edges were high making shots just off line frequently impossible to find. I was able to play here today because of a really good Golf Now discounted rate and was thoroughly impressed.
Thank you so much for your rating. We are working hard to keep our course beautifully maintained, despite the rainfall we have been receiving. We are so glad you enjoyed your round here, and we are already looking forward to seeing you back here again soon!
SLOW SLOW SLOW SLOW
This is a nice course. I’m sure the employees are nice people.
But today SUCKED.
It took my son and me 4 hours and 25 minutes to play 14.5 holes. This is NOT A TYPO.
We quit in the middle of the 15th fairway. PICKED UP OUR BALLS AND DROVE TO THE PARKING LOT!
This would have been a SIX HOUR ROUND OF GOLF!
THIS SUCKED!!!
There was a foursome ahead of us. A fivesome ahead of them. And a foursome of women ahead of them who clearly were not golfers.
They ought to have been thrown off the course.
TODAY WAS A JOKE!!!
A DISASTER!!!
IT SUCKED!!!
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes, and ensure future rounds are quicker. Thanks for visiting Delaware Golf Club. We hope to see you again in the future.
Golfing in Delaware, Ohio
Great day on the golf course!!! First time on this course. Overall, it was fine and I would play again. There isn’t much of cart path on the back 9 and the majority of the path needs replaced. Signs on the course identifying the holes would have been helpful.
Thanks for your feedback, we really appreciate it!
Fine course.
Although the course was slightly soggy from prior days rains, and carts were restricted to paths, it was a thoroughly enjoyable day. The greens were recently punched and sanded and are almost back to normal, and the tees and fairways are in excellent condition. Given it's multiple tees it's as challenging as you want it to be. So, it's a beautiful and challenging, but totally fair course, and I'll play it often.
We are so glad you had such a great time, even with the rainy days we have been experiencing! We cannot wait to have you back here again soon!
what. a day!
the course is laid out beautifully, most tees well marked, even now. staff very helpful and friendly. the rough a bit challenging - would avoid it. sand traps in better shape than most in OH, but happily, we avoided most.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are so glad you love our course layout, and our staff is working hard to ensure you have a great experience. We are already looking forward to having you back for your next round!
Nice day on the links during the virus
I took advantage of a Golfnow promo code to play here. Never been here while it was Delaware GC, but did play back in the day (30 years ago) when it was Dornoch GC. Course was in great shape and as a single I was paired with 3 very nice folks. The greens has been airaited some time ago but were still effected by the experience. If not for the promo code, I probably would not have played here (just a little more cost than I allow myself to experience).
We're so glad you decided to come by. We hope to see you back here again soon!
Great course
This course was absolutely amazing. The pace of play was perfect in the course condition was top-notch. I would definitely play this course again however the 2 Hour drive makes it hard.
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating! We're so glad you enjoyed your round and our course so much. We are excited to have you back here again soon!
Thanks so much for the great rating!
Love the course
First time visiting Delaware and will be going back. Love the challenging layout.
Thanks so much for the great review, Stephen. We're so glad you had a great time, and we cannot wait to have you back here soon!
Difficult to find the tee off place
Overall condition of fairways and green was very good. But, the layout of golf course cannot understand due to many crossover the roads and near to houses. Also, some course was very difficult to find the exact location due to no direction of course.
Hello! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back!
Great course
Course and greens were in great shape given the time of year. Course never disappoints as it is challenging yet fair.
Thanks so much for the 5 star rating! We are so glad you enjoyed your time at the course and we cannot wait to have you back here again soon.
