Middletown Country Club has been one of Bucks County's major golfing destinations for more than a century. Originally designed as a nine-hole golf course in 1913 by Scottish architect Alexander Findlay, the second nine was added three years later. In the many years since opening, the golf course has undergone renovations by both George Fazio and Stephen Kay. This tough course is proof that a layout doesn't have to be 7,500-plus yards to be a challenge. Although the Middletown C.C. golf course plays to a seemingly modest yardage of 6,217 from the back tees, the rolling terrain provided by its location in the scenic Neshaminy Valley makes the course seem much longer. The small greens have plenty of undulations and you'll also be faced with a variety of uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies. There are also towering trees looming above the fairways and water comes into play throughout the golf course as well.

Conditions

Felt the conditions on the course were horrible this time around. Greens were aerated and no notification, tee boxes had high grass and one hole was modified with out any notification. Love the course previously, however this time around makes want to take the course out of the rotation for a year or two until conditions are playable again.

don't go right now

The course was half closed for greens maintenance (aero). Was supposed to have been done done earlieer in the week, but the claim was weather did not permit. Unfortunately there was no update posted. So half a course to play twice. It would not have mattered. Cart paths are in worst shape ever, the course was grown over everywhere. At one time $25 would have been a bargain. Yesterday $5 would have been to much. But it was empty.........????

Good bones, bad shape

I've been playing Middletown since 2001. I've seen it's ups and downs - I have to say it's currently down.

The course was in decent shape overall, better than when I played in 2020.

However, the weaknesses are glaring - particularly the renovated greens of 11 and 13. The renovations appear to have been a complete failure as the "greens" are sand and it doesn't seem like there is a prayer that'll change. Even if the renovations were successful and the "greens" actually had grass growing on them, I'm personally not a fan of the design changes that were made. Both 11 and 13 had severe greens but were playable in my opinion and were in decent shape for the nearly 20 years I had been playing the course. The money could've been better spent elsewhere in my opinion.

12 was changed to a Par 5? Easily the shortest Par 5 I've ever played in my life. It's a par 4. I guess I understand the logic because the tee shot is pretty difficult and if you don't hit a good shot it plays like a par 4 and a half, but changing it to a par 5 is a stretch.

Also, pace of play can be brutal on a crowded day. There are a couple of bottlenecks on the course that really screw up pace of play. I've walked off this course multiple times due to slow play.

The good - the course design is fun. Elevation changes, never a flat lie, fun short par 4's, a few really difficult par 4's, trees keep you honest, slopey greens. It really does play longer than the score card indicates and if you don't hit it straight it will humble you. If the course was better maintained it would be an old school gem. Course has been around forever and has a great history. Hope it gets to that point.

Overall, in my opinion Middletown unfortunately has been losing ground to other courses in the area in terms of conditions, amenities, etc. The price to quality ratio for me just doesn't make sense compared to the other choices. When it comes down to it, I don't have a ton of free time and I work hard for my money - there are better options in the area where my time and money are better spent. Might seem harsh and I'm sympathetic to the difficulties of running a golf course, but I think it's a fair review. And yes, I've had my butt kicked by Middletown many times - I've also gotten a few pretty good punches in too : )

Place needs work

This course is really going down hill. It is in bad shape from the tee boxes to the fairways being burnt out, to the rough being too thick and a few of the greens having almost no grass. To top it off I was served a cold hot dog at the snack stand. Quickly has become one of the worse kept courses around.

Great challenge

I play this course weekly and laugh at some of the reviews. First of all they have two greens that aren't pretty but roll fine not several. Fairways are great and tees are fine. It's the beginning of August and the course is in overall great shape. Usually the complainers are the ones who got their butts handed to them because they can't handle the rolling terrain of the course.

Course Unkept

Very very poor greens. Several without grass in multiple areas. Several tee boxes were unkept as well. Disappointing for what course be a nice course at affordable price. 3 groups ahead of our two-some were very slow and there seemed to be zero monitoring of pace of play.

Great day, but….

Everything was great except for several greens being pretty beat. We finished up at about 11:30 and most disappointing, the Restaurant/ Bar was not yet open.
