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.

Decent Course and Layout, Charges Walker Cart Fee

It’s unfortunate this course charges those who walk and those who use gas carts the same fee so they can squeeze out every ounce of profit. It really shouldn’t be that way.

For that reason I won’t be back but if that and the massively overpriced food & drink items don’t bother you, it’s a decent course in decent condition.

Best Value I've Ever Played

I'll admit, I'm not usually one to go out of my way to give good reviews. But for what I paid for the green fee I was absolutely blown away by this course. Tee boxes, fairways, rough, and greens all in outstanding condition, and a fun course layout to go along with it. Played on Easter so course was pretty empty, got to basically play my own solo round and barely ran into anybody, so can't say much for pace of play. But this was one of the nicest sub-$70 green fee courses I've ever played, and at a very affordable price. I absolutely will be back and recommending this course to others.

This is by far my favorite place to play in the tristate area! I'm such a fan of playing different courses every chance I get but this is the one place I always come back to! Friendly staff, great greens, and lush conditions all year long! Looking forward to many more rounds here at Browns Run!
