The Abington Club

The course/club does not honor the GolfNow rate, even if you show them the online booking. I had to pay $9 more than the listed rate, in addition to the GN booking fee.

Sorry GolfNow, if they're not going to honor your rates, there's no point in booking with them through you.

The coourse was in surprisingly good shape for this time of year, especially given it's rarely in great shape. There have been some trees removed making certain shots a little easier. Not sure if this is a plus or minus considering the very short length. The third hole is under construction adding an elevated green to an already uphill hole. it'll be a fun challenge once done. For now, there's a cup in the middle of the fairway at about 140 yards. my standard 5i tee shot ended up well passed as you can't see the flag from the tee box.

That, and extra cost aside, this is one of my favorite places to get a quick 9 in, as it's less than 10 minutes from my driveway.

Second time playing here. It a walking course 9-holes only. Carts are available for $10. They need better markers so you know what hole you’re playing and tee makers, so you know if you playing off red or white. But overall it not a bad course to play.

Abington is good if you need to scratch the golf itch but only have 2 hours. The course is small and short, but the greens are small and fast, which makes it more challenging than it appears. Short game can be tough as you need to control for the fast greens and the extreme slopes – it's easy to putt / chip off the green.

It's mostly par 3s with some par 4s sprinkled in, so you can practice accuracy with approach shots.

Currently, hole 3 is a stand in hole with a "green" that's a circle spray painted at 150 yards in the fairway with a cup / flag in the middle. Not sure how long it will be until that's resolved.

Pace of play can vary drastically. Sometimes, members will play solo and play multiple balls on each hole. Other days there's no one around and it's super quick and calm.

The course overall isn't maintained that well. Tee boxes aren't great. Sand traps have lots of little pebbles.

But if you accept the course for what it is, you can get a lot of joy from playing it with some friends, or as a solo practice.

Do yourself a favor and give this course a shot. Excellent 9 hole to help workout your irons. Very enjoyable taking beginners here as they won’t feel overwhelmed! The owners and staff are second to none and the Restaurant/ Bar 1910 is fantastic, make sure you stay for your post game lunch!

I’ve played on a lot of golf courses from world class to 9 hole munis. The Abington Club course is by far the worst course I’ve ever played. Tee boxes are nearly all dirt. Fairways — what fairways? All weeds, dirt and occasional patches of grass. Sand traps are dirt with stones and pebbles. I hate to be so negative because I just moved to the area and was looking for somewhere close by where I could play occasionally while deciding whether or not to plunk done thousands on a country club. Won’t be back.

In fairness I was two holes into playing and a thunderstorm hit delaying the game. Afterwards course was ver wet. I do t think the holes are marked very well.

Fun short course.

Good value. Course is not in great shape but decent

Challenging course. Some water, average bunkers surrounding holes, some marshes. Definitely rent a powered cart as there are steep up and down fairways.

I only gave it 3 stars as I tired rather quickly from walking the course

Some of the greens also were not in good shape.

Good course for the price. Great place to play pressure free golf.

I played this course on a late Sunday afternoon.

There are a few challenging par 3 holes, where a chip past the green will land in thick brush.

The majority of the greens and tee boxes are in awful shape., but playable.

Regardless, it’s still a fun course to work on your short game.

The staff, especially Colleen was friendly and made us feel welcome.

We stayed for dinner at the 1910 Grill, which was great.
