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.

Poor Condition

Several greens were damaged. Most which were not had only a light cover of grass They were also terribly fast. Not just high in Stimpmeter, but unreasonably so because of the poor maintenance. Bunkers, except one were as hard as concrete. Tees were often tilted, resulting in the ball being higher/lower than one's feet.

It will be a cold day ... before I ever play this track again.

Much better

I left a review about a month or so ago saying how the course was going downhill a bit and needed a lot of work. Well they put some work into it. The conditions today were by far better than they have been in months. Tee boxes are better with a couple of exceptions but thats okay. The greens have been massively repaired. Only 1 or 2 holes I was disappointed with greens quality. Can it be hard to find your ball because there's leaves everywhere and can putting be more difficult because there's a lot of leaves all over the green yes to both but I can't be mad about that at all. I'm golfing in october and expect that to be the case. Overall the quality of the course has improved greatly. As someone who has played this course about 12 times this year and seen it go up and down, I'm happy with Middletown.

Middletown Day

Our threesome played early morning and we were paired with a regular who had a lot of course knowledge which was nice. The course layout is competitive. We played from the white tees. There were some decent length holes and two short par 4s. The greens were small so not forgiving on approach miss hits. The greens were also rolled frequently with a fair amount of slope leading to some difficult chips and putting was challenging. The course had a number of elevation changes with challenging lies. Two greens were recently reconstructed and not quite ready. We are looking forward to playing this course again next spring.

Good Challenge

Overall considering the “Harsh” Summer, course was in good shape, this course is very deceptive, overall yardage is short , in comparison to many new design tracks, but the character and rolling slopes that oepn up pin placements , cause even a excellent player to dial in a correct shot to score, green speed was fast, but holding short pitch or chip was doable, great design for sure, totally enjoyed course .

Stay Away

This course is in awful condition. To many greens were brown / dirt. There is a horrible "gnat" problem going on, swarms of them. The price of the course is to high for the condition it is in. The starter let a single golfer go alone instead of making him golf with my 2-sum. And later the same starter asked us to pick up the pace even though we were keeping up with the group in front of us. How about you do your starter job correctly.

With all due respect, and thank you for coming out to see us, the course is not, as you wrote, "going downhill". Like many courses in our area, there were three factors that influenced conditions in July/August.

1. 5,000 more rounds from our May 1st reopening to Sept.15th than the same time period last year on small tees and greens.

2. A record number of days over 90 with 90+ % humidity in July/ August where temperatures rarely got below 75-80 degrees at night.

3. Several rain events with too much rain in a very short amount of time.

In response, we moved fall greens aerification up to the first week of August instead of the last week. All tees were sprayed out for weeds when the temperatures cooled off and reseeded. This spray could not be applied when temps were too hot as it would kill everything. All collars were done in the same manner.

We also received greens sod from Union League National GC and their course renovation to sod #6's tee, the front of #6's green, the back of #11, #14, and #16 green. Also, the two new greens have been nursed back after the architect and construction crew put improper drainage underneath them. They were great during the dry season in May and June. Once the first tropical storm hit, they starting retaining water and suffered. They are coming next Monday and Tuesday to complete the drainage work on those two greens. We are also removing trees around #12's tee to open up that tee for better sunlight to that tee for growing purposes. That hole is probably going to become a par 5 by using the back tee for the back and middle tees to avoid tee shots sailing over the catch nets along Maple Avenue. I just figured that I would respond to your review to inform everyone that we are moving forward and coming back after a rough stretch caused by the factors listed above.

Best Wishes,

Pace

Need more ranger policing. Foursomes that have no respect for pace of play. Stand around green talking after everyone is done putting. Also this is 2nd time in 3 weeks that a twosome was allowed to play out of one bag. One driver and putter for two people Crisscrossing the fairway to share an iron. Etc.
