About
Opened in 1923, Reading Country Club is one of the area's oldest golf courses. Located less than a half hour from King of Prussia, the course is easily accessible from anywhere in the greater Berks County area. Though it has a traditional layout that doesn't have the length that most modern courses do, that hasn't stopped it from being one of the most challenging public golf courses in Berks County. The rolling terrain provides a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. The course will test you with lightning fast, undulating greens that are protected by sand traps and there is punishing rough bordering the narrow, tree-lined fairways. Be prepared for uphill shots and blind approaches throughout the golf course. Reading Country Club's par 3s are especially notable for their difficulty.

nice day nice course
nice day on a nice course...........many players but pace of play was 3 1/2 hours.........greens a little hairy so not alot of brakes....rough is thick as always so hit the fairways.........nice course for a fun round........do not let the yardage fool you.....pick the right tees....ego aside do not play the blues unless you are a single digit
enjoyable
I have been playing this course for over 20 years......it is always enjoyable and challenging........good tract for beginner or well healed........the greens make the course and remember stay out of the rough, it will cost you a stroke
no complaints
traps vastly improved from spring. Greens fairways very nice.
Out of towner.
I love playing this course whenever I can pass through Reading Pennsylvania. It is a fantastic short course layout. They have recently gone through some hard times with flooding wind storms trees down but all in all it is and quite playable condition. I would recommend this course to anybody in the area it is a joy to play.
First time at RCC
Played on a Sunday late morning. Having read some of the previous reviews, I was excited about getting out there and seeing and playing the course. The best part of the course is the conditions of the greens. Without question. Tee boxes could use some work,.
Bunkers were everything from awful to pristine and everything in between. Hilly layout with mature trees lining most fairways. You could see how in its day, the course was highly regarded regionally. We played as a two-some and made good time until about the 8th hole. From there on, we were waiting on every hole and groups behind us were queued up. 5 hour round. Shot my first 82 at RCC and its a testament to condition and quality of the greens.
Great course and value
Very cool old school layout. You must think your way around
Course in great shape, great layout, pace of play extremely slow
Great Day
Course conditions were great. Fast greens and lush fairways. Decent challenge and great sandtrap conditions. Very mindful of Covid sanitation throughout the course.
they are trying
the course is getting better.....they are working on the bunkers ( slow bur doing something).......greens are nice but a little rough due to light punching .......they are trying and within a year should be back to being top notch .....still a joy to play and bring extra balls
Back 4 more
Always a treat, and everthing was super as usual...only negative was some of the lousy players not fixing their ball marks and not letting us play through while they held up the back nine. Other than that, we still played in 4 hours.
Play it again, Stan
What else to say that I haven't before...one of the best/hardest courses around...I am playing there again TODAY!
Always GREAT
I have written other reviews but I'll just be brief... the course is in great shape , and a blast to play... you better hit the ball good and straight in order to score as it is very challenging and requires several plays before you finally figure out where to spot the ball and how the greens roll but you're in for a treat cuz this is a great Golf Course
What a great layout! Greens were amazing! Lovely course with great views!!!
This is a challenging "old school" course. I enjoy playing the course although my skill level is not always up to par. I would recommend it for the play and wonderful feel to the grounds.
