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.

This course is so poorly maintained. We left after playing 15 holes, it was torture!

I've played at many municipal courses and this is by far the worst.

Nice course

I received great deal from golfnow. Rainy early in day. Cleared by 130 tee time. Parking lot full. Not expecting lots of play on a thurs. Played 3 holes quickly then backed up as we caught up to shotgun outing. Waited 10 + mins on most holes. This explains " hot deal ". Outings should be posted on golfnow as you prepay in full. Have no choice but to wait. Overall nice course. Challenging but fair. Deep rough. Fast greens dispite rain.

Middletown Country Club 6/4/2016

Starter was very helpful on the first tee, very friendly. Course undulations, elevation changes add lots of interest and difficulty. Greens were in relatively good shape as were the fairways.

The lack of yardage markers along the fairway or in the fairway was disappointing. The bunkers need sand, thankfully only hit into a couple but it was packed / hard and made for impossible shots.

Wish I knew they were only playing back 9

Due to the fact that they were aerating the front 9 we were limited to playing the back 9 twice which was not ideal for pace of play or overall satisfaction as this wasn't noted on the reservation. The staff couldn't have been nicer and I was actually intrigued somewhat by the layout with undulations and matchstick greens. I would like to play the full 18 and reevaluate.

Tough greens.

Pace of play was very slow. Backed up on the first tee and then everyone after that. 6 hour round. Wow.

The course was in good shape. Some long par 4's even from the white tee's. The greens are tough. Extreme hills. Stand by with your ball marker and mark it as soon as it stops. If you are on the wrong side of the hole it is sometimes impossible to keep it on the green.

The fairways are in good shape. Rough not too high. All in all pretty good shape.

Thank you for taking the time to review our course. We apologize for the pace of play on Sunday. Believe it or not, we had a frost delay of about 45 minutes that caused delays. Also, our greens are very fast right now not only because of the slopes, but they also are not growing right now with last week's colder night. Our super is going to raise his mowing height to slow them up a bit and open up some more hole locations.

Best Wishes,

Dan Hoban, PGA

Worth the trip

My group usually plays in south Jersey . . . mostly flat courses and pine trees (needles). This well maintained course has a beautiful layout of rolling hills amongst a variety of tall trees. My gorup found the hills and greens somewhat challenging, but fair. The staff was friendly and we enjoyed our outing. I personally look forward to return to improve my score!

old school

This is a small old style course with hilly terrain and very small greens that in certain conditions can be nearly impossible. The course can play as tough as you want if you don't manage your way around. The back nine has some long holes that will test you but the front nine does not require driver except on two holes. The par 3's are a challenge.

quiet fall afternoon

I have played this course maybe 4 times this past late summer and fall and each time out it has become more enjoyable as the crowds thin and the leaves fall. The course does not play very long but can be very challenging with many side hill and uphill lies even when you tee shot finds the fairway. My neighbor and i teed it up at noon and were finished at 3:30 without rushing. If only every round could be like this.

course is dry but we are in a heat wave.

Course is fun, Many of the front nine play to the right important to keep it left.
Greens were is fair to poor shape. Course is dry. In defense of that the area has had little to no rain in month or so. Heat wave still in progress and its Sept.
Challenge for the money. Could be in better shape.

Fore!

Tee boxes are set too close to preceeding greens. Golfers from behind nearly hit us every time! Some really difficult holes. Sand traps need new sand, the sand in there is too compact and is hard as concrete.

Good value and challenging course

Nice course with challenging greens. If you don't put your approach in the correct area it can make for tough put. Some greens in poor shape and fairways not quite to what I have seen in the past. Overall a nice round of golf

Course conditions

I chose the course looking for something in my area as a secondary option. I approached the course from the Main Street and saw the length of the fairway grass and immediately knew it was a mistake and thought to leave. I figured why not play anyway for the price and see if it was delusion, unfortunately not. There is no part of this course that is cared for, not even the customers. The fairways are long and unkept as was the rest of the course. Playing a 5.5 hour round as there was a wait on every hole, I should have left and went to Makefield. Bottom line is you never know what you are going to get so if this helps the next guy, please think again! 12.5 handicap and a weekend golfer!
