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.

Sunday golf with family
I loved the layout and the Blue/White tee combination. The tee combination allows senior golfers to play specified holes from a different set of teeing positions . I thought it was a novel approach for senior golfers that aren't ready to play senior tees but don't possess the distance for long par 3 and 4 holes. The course was in good shape except for countless fairway divots and ballmarks on the greens. I understand that those are the players responsibility and may be that gentle reminders throughout the course would be beneficial. Other than that we had a great time!
Location
Located right along rt23, I’ve driven by for years and finally had a chance to play. The entry off 23 and pass the original clubhouse (now maintenance) and up the hill. The clubhouse is great, carts are really nice, putting green and driving range all really nice. The front 9 plays almost like a different course to the back nine. Very well maintained course and I will continue playing here and taking guests
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the course and its facilities, and we look forward to welcoming you and your guests again soon.
Nice Track
Course was in great shape. Front 9 had an excellent challenging layout, back nine (older original section) had some odd holes, which made certain shots difficult when not knowing the course. Greens were true and fast. I would recommend and will play again when in the Columbus area.
Thanks so much for the great review, u1730533. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Delaware Golf Club.
Horrible round
First T-box 8 groups waiting to T-off ok busy. Play the first 4 holes in an hour and a half. Decided to skip 5-9 and play the back 9 maybe just not their day. Played 3 more holes cart died tried to call the office to get a new kart no answer 20 mins had to walk back to the office to get a new cart. Decided just not to temp fate called it a day. Asked for my money back. The guy at the desk was new could not do a refund paid 140.00 for 18 holes played 7 of 18 they offered me 9 holes. After some back and fourth and bickering the gave me 2 18 hole rain checks. I’ll try again (because of the rain checks) but this place is WAY OVER PRICED FOR THAT SERVICE.

Pace of play
Have played here many times, but this was the first round this year. Course was in very good shape for the high number of rounds it gets per year however it took me almost 3 hours to play nine holes and I quit after nine will go again but definitely will not try to play on the weekends. They used to have Rangers out there keeping everyone on time, but it does not appear. That’s an option this year really disappointed because the back nine is a very classic Donald Ross.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
