Ambassador at Hickory Valley Golf Club

A lot of Dog Legs which makes thing a little challenging. Enjoyable!

Great had a lot of fun will play again

This was definitely one of the nicest courses I have ever played and probably the hardest too. Fairway turf was tremendous and the bunkers were soft and always raked. Pace of play was not an issue at all as we played on a Saturday late morning. We were a two some and no tee time behind even got out 15 minutes early. Never had a problem. Lots of narrow tee shots. Couple that with the beer and the back nine got the best of me. Can't speak for the value of a full price round, but for the $25 we spent on group golfer vouchers, it was a great day. The Ambassador is nice, but this course has the feel of something far beyond just "nice."

We played the Ambassador course. It is a good course for beginners as it is not overly long and you certainly won't find many bunkers. A decent amount of doglegs will challenge the advanced golfers. We teed off a little after 2pm on a weekend. It is expected to be crowded so when nobody was in front of us, it was awesome. We flew through the front nine but then hit a wall on 11. It was at least 20 minutes a hole after that. I wouldn't want to know the pace in peak time.

I would have a difficult time finding another course this nice for the money. I can't write a single thing negative about it. Other than my score, I would duplicate everything about my golfing experience here again and again. I plan on coming back and playing both course on the same day.

please don't waste your time, no rangers to help with pace of play which is super slow, have people playing in tank tops, course layout isn't too good....no yardage markers horrible

Almost every hole had some form or forms of water.

Course is well designed and fairways and greens are in great shape.

Just need to drive in fairways, stay out of hazzards and hit the greens!

I will definitely play again!!!

course was in excellent shape,played in 3 hrs had 6:15 tee time

good course.

recommend to all levels of golfers.

Played the Ambassodor course for the first time and was very impressed! Had a $20 hot deal and the course and greens were in excellent condition. Long hitters keep the driver in the bag! Narrow fairways and a bit challenging. Great value!

The course overall is challenging with the exception of a couple short par 4's. Par 3's challenging and some monster par 5's. Right balance of dog legs. I enjoyed it and will play it again.

i played the Ambassador course on a Saturday afternoon and surprisingly the pace of play resulted in a four hour round. The course was in great shape but the layout was the most impressive. The tee boxes for the most part are steps from the previous green which helps the pace of play. i am looking forward to playing the Presidential course next.

Always in great shape and very challenging

Hickory Ambassador is in great shape. Greens roll very nice. I have nothing bad to say except for the pace. We flew through the first 8 holes before we caught up with the traffic. But happy to be out regardless.

I have played this course several times over the past 25+ years but hadn't played it in about 10 years. It was quite enjoyable. I was there on the Monday afternoon after the Masters. Weather forecast had been threatening which might have explained why there was essentially no one there. The condition of the course this early in the season was remarkable. Very tidy. This is a challenging track with several long par 4"s and tight fairways on the back 9. Only complaint was the greens which were bumpy form recent aeration bu that's to be expected. Overall a good time and a great value with a Hot Deal.

Thought I would be playing by myself but it was busy. The pace was fine once we teed off though. I prefer the Presidential but the Ambassador is in good shape. I'm just not a fan of #9 or 10. 9 would be better as a par 4 with a strategic lay-up. All in all Hickory Valley remains a top course in the area regardless Of the outrageous prices charged at Bella or the Claw most times. The Presidential is an awesome track! Probably the best public course around!

See you again soon.

Was a beautiful day both on the course and after the course ! Excellent value and had a beautiful day with my 2 boys ! Best of all was the friendliness of the staff ! 2 of the staff members helped me fix my flat tire on my truck after playing golf here ! Didn,t have a jack and they kindly lent me theirs ! Absolutely awesome ! That,s the best way I can describe it ! Will definitely play again !

Winter rates but no rakes in the sand traps. Did not whip the greens is was like no one worked there. I have played this course before and it was great .

We showed up 10 minutes early for our tee time and had to wait behind a rush of people who all checked in at the same time. There was 12 people waiting on the 1st tee at our scheduled tee time. When I approached management in the pro shop I was told they book tee times every 10 minutes, meaning that over an hours' worth of reserved tee times showed up at the same moment in time. I'm not buying that nonsense and these events added over an hour to our round which ended up not being a very enjoyable experience. Additionally when we went to tee off on hole 11 there was no flag anywhere to be found on the green. I grabbed a branch from the woods so the group behind us would have a target to shoot at.

I realize it's early in the season but there's no excuse not to have a starter. Stay away from this course as it is run very poorly.

Easily in the top 3 public courses in Philadelphia area. It's like all of the other great courses but without out any developments surrounding the fairways. It's all farm and forest! If I lived closer I'd play the Presidential every time. You have to use course management to score well here, as you can't just go from hole to hole blasting the ball with a driver. Lots of dog legs, hazards, and tricky greens. The best part is the serenity. Again, no developments or power plants around!
