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.

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.
Great condition
Course was in great condition for this time of year.
Course was in great shape
the golf course was in great shape for this time of year. I can't wait till summertime and play it again
spring golf
Really want to play this course in the summer. Fun and challenging and well maintained so early in the season.
Delaware golf club
Great course. Food and beverage options were very limited as it was the end of season. Great conditions. Greens were very fast and challenging
Very good course
A very good course, good location from the city, normally it cost about the quality as it is(not so cheap) but I got a deal from online.
enjoyed the round
good pace for the round greens were nice no complaints
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.
Course was in Great Shape
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!
Delaware Golf Club
Excellent facility. Course conditions were outstanding. A number of challenging but interesting holes. Would definitely recommend this course for anyone looking to play a traditional golf course.

I love this place great course to play 2 diff nines
Nice Facility
Fun course with great design. Very nice course with a nice location.
First time back this season
I played this track a few times last year. I was cruising GolfNow for a Saturday deal and found a 2 spot for $18.50 per person. I expected to be paired, but they sent us right off (20 min early). We played through 3 foursomes who were taking their time, they did not hesitate to let us pass. We finished in 3.5 hours, and had the back 9 basically to ourselves. Challenging but fun course, highly recommend.
Course was in great shape
The course was in great shape and provides a nice challenge. Unlike most other courses this time of year, the traps had a sufficient amount of high quality sand. I will play this course again.
Great Course, Slow Going
Delaware Golf Club reminds me of a short version of OSU scarlet. At 6400 yds it has plenty of interesting features. The bunkers, rough and fairways were excellent and the greens were fast and true, but pockmarked by inconsiderate golfers. The Sunday pace was excruciating but it's hard to complain when you get to play such a nice design. #11 is a dogleg left 440 yard par 4 that crosses a lake veers uphill to a diagonal fairway then requires a nice 2nd into a stream guarded sloped green,
Course in great shape...but look for a deal
Played this course on Sunday, 8/17. The course was in great shape, fairways, bunkers and the greens. The greens were quick and well manicured. I like the layout of the course and do agree with an earlier review to add yardage to the white tees on a couple holes, pairing the tees up with the blue tees on a couple holes. I plan to play the course again.
My advice to other players is to find a deal on GolfNow, the normal weekend rate of $59 is too steep and it only drops to $49 for their twilight rate.
Nice Course
Nice course. Greens were fast and rolled true. My biggest complaint would be the bunkers need more sand. I'd say this course is challenging with the smaller greens. Don't let the short yardage fool you.
