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.

Best greens in central Ohio

Although Hurricane Bill moved though the area 24 hours earlier, Delaware GC was in great shape. Greens are the best in central Ohio. Fairways and rough areas are well kept also. Always a pleasure to play there.

Good Value for the price

A nice track that tends to play quickly. Greens are fairly straight forward with manageable approaches on most holes. The course is not marked well (yardages) and they do not offer a yardage book - this was my only complaint.

Fantastic Course

I played here for the first time and it will definitely won't be my last. It has a fantastic setting, but does require precise shots on some holes. There are many elevation changes with blind shots. Greens were rolled true, but some of the pin placements were evil. It was well worth the trip from the east side. I can't wait to come back and play.

Great Hot Deals Offer!

Plays like two unique 9's. Fuzzy Zoeller redesigned the front nine, but the back 9 remained intact. I like the newly designed nine. More complete package - visual and difficulty! I enjoy the course every time I play it. I'll be back!

Makes you think

Fun course with a few challenging layouts and design elements which force you to manage your game well. But not so difficult you can't shoot low. Enjoyable for sure. One of my favorites in Central Ohio.

quick greens do not want to be above the hole

First time playing as an 18 hole course. The course was in very good condition and enjoyed playing. I found that you need to play more then once to understand where to place the ball in the fairway and the undulations on the greens. Found that you need to try and keep the ball below the hole. In all was enjoyable round and looking to play it again.

Fall golf

Got a good deal on golfnow and figured I'd give it a go. The course was in great shape and very well taken care of. Most if the holes are just gorgeous to look at from the tee box. Not a super long track challenging but very fair. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Would definitely play it again.

Played Delaware GC yesterday. Best maintained course I have played in Central Ohio all year. Fairways were tight and greens were fast and rolled pure. Best value of the year. Top notch. Well done!
