Blue at Gilbertsville Golf Club

About
Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 03/2023
Gilbertsville Golf Club is a public, 27-hole layout in New Hanover Township. The holes are divided into three different nines called the Red, White, and Blue. The nines sprawl across the rolling hills of Montgomery County, which is most apparent on the most challenging of the three, the Blue Course. The Red and White, the club's original 18 holes, have a more traditional layout while the Blue Nine, which was added 30 years later, is more modern with rolling fairways and large, undulating greens. Surprisingly the Blue is the shortest of the three golf courses but it feels longer due to the constant up-and-down. Golfers will encounter a number of tricky lies on this nine and there is also water coming into play on nearly every hole.

Made a few craters on the greens and happily used the repair tool. Unfortunately choked on my few birdie putts. Photo submitted by u000007953538 on 11/18/2013

Good service, Good Course
Good and friendly staff.. Provided excellent service.
Acceptable course
This course is 27 holes that are not overwhelming. Par 4’a typically are short with some exceptions..
Beach is Closed!
Danger, beach conditions rocky! Good lord, its clear they’ve given up on the bunkers as they are a mix over overgrowth, rocks, and standing water. Yes, these are “hazards” but they are also typically known as “sand bunkers”. More sand, less bodily and club hazard would be cool.
Rest of the course is fine, carts are a little dated, but…meh. Not a bad tract but I’m hoping the maintenance is a temp situation and not indicative of an impending land sale to put up more McMansions out here.
some parts very good others need work
Had never played Gilbertsville before but decided to try it out. We played the red and then the blue 9s. Was pleased with the layout and quality of the holes. The tees, fairways and greens were good and better than expected. The sand traps are no longer sand traps and are full of weeds so you just pull your ball out with no penalty. If the course had enough funding, it could really be a top course. It is a very good value and if you don't mind a few of the lacking things it can be a pleasant round here

Hello. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing White at Gilbertsville Golf Club.
Fun round
Played with two guys in fifties. Got a kick out of them complaining that I should not be hitting from senior tees. Course in great shape and good pace.
Great Local Course
I always love playing this course, the staff is always super friendly and the course itself if mostly well maintained. The only critique I have is that the bunkers haven’t had sand in them all season. Overall I’ll still be playing there as much as I can.
Fairway to green good
Fairways and greens are better than the price, everywhere else is not good. No bunkers left as they are filled with grass and weeds. The rough is inconsistent, but forgiving. If you need a confidence boost, head out you can miss anywhere I’ve never had my A game here and always break 80.

Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at White at Gilbertsville Golf Club!
Father / Daughter outing
This golf course never disappoints. Went there with my daughter who hadn’t played golf in about five years and was very rusty. Play the red and blue courses, the red course, being the older and flatter of the two nines had a very traditional minimalist layout, which helped my daughter shake the rust off. The blue course had more elevation changes undulating greens. The greens were in perfect condition and overall the course was in great shape. I guess the only complaint would be that there was absolutely no water on the course and at the turn when we asked for a water fountain to fill up our containers was told I could buy water. On the other hand the lady behind the bar/counter was very sweet and offered to fill up our containers with ice. it was certainly worth the 3 detours we had to take as most of the roads leading into the golf course were under construction.

Awesome course
Played here during a heat wave and course was in great condition fairways were soft and the greens rolled great! Only downside that I didn’t like was that the fairway bunkers and some Green bunkers had almost no sand and had lots of smaller stones in them potentially damaging clubs if you swung in them.
No
Played this course back when they had money to put back into course.The golf carts are way outdated and seats held together with white duct tape.Had to keep pulling choke for cart to move.Not one bunker had sand in them and some greens had holes in them.So sad for a golf course that used to be so nice.Will never play there again.56 bucks w/cart.Do not play here
