Course Highlights

Rating 72.8

Brown's Run Country Club in Middletown offers a championship layout that stretches to just over 6,830 yards. The team of William and Brian Gordon, brothers who have designed more than 85 golf courses all over the U.S., designed Brown's Run in 1958. It has a classic layout that is gentle enough for beginners, but it is an enjoyable round no matter what skill level. There are a few strategically placed sand traps throughout the golf course, which make up for the absence of water. The design is pretty straightforward although there are a few slight doglegs to watch out for. In addition to the challenging but playable design, the course boasts some of the finest fairways and greens in the area. Brown's Run also offers other amenities including an Olympic-size pool and four lighted tennis courts.

Golf cart policy Is ridiculous

I would have enjoyed my round a lot more if I had not been chastised about not dropping my clubs at the club drop off. The fact that an employee can drive me to my car and I can't take a cart out to my car is the most ridiculous rule on the planet. If I'm capable of driving your cart on the course I think I can make it to my car and back. By the way this is the first time in the I don't know how many times I've played here that I was not able to drive the cart to my car. Might want to review this course policy as I won't be back because of it.
