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.

Great Course!

Fairways were soft. Tee boxes weren’t full of divots. People actually repair ball marks on the greens. Great course!

Much improved. Very nice!

Like most courses Browns Run has gone through its ups and downs. It is returning to its form as a private club. Course conditions were great. Greens rolled true, fairways and tee boxes in nice condition. Great value. Definitely coming back!
