Reading Country Club
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.

cold windy day
course has a lot of elevation changes and awkward
lies, course not long but narrow fairways protect the course. greens ran fast and bunkers will need to be attended to ( were mostly made of dirt). would recommend for the hot deal only. I wouldn't pay full price. it's a nice course but its layout is average.
March Golf
Typical March day in eastern PA, windy and colder than the forecast. Course was in great shape, most surprisingly the condition of the greens, they were outstanding for this time of year!
1st day open
It was the first day of the season for the course. The course was soaking wet, but I didnt care, just wanted to get out. I will defiantely play here again in-season. The course was still good given the amount of water that was on it.
continues to improve
The course continues to improve and played nicely for a late autumn round. Greens could be just a bit smoother but overall very good conditions.
nice course
This is a very nice course with friendly and attentive staff. I enjoyed myself and will come back even though its a 30 minute drive.
great value for the money
Well maintained - tight fairways -lightening greens. Lots of very interesting holes-will be back!
quick greens and beautiful layout
Greens were well maintained and extremely fast. Beautiful layout and country club feel. Would love to play again.
The greens are fast!
This course will play easy until you hit the last four holes only if you know your exact club yardages. The last holes are high handicap but if you never played them before good luck. A beautiful clubhouse and building surrounded by a historical gem of a course. Well maintained course.
nice layout. helps to know where you're going @ times.
Great value for the money. Features fast greens, narrow fairways, and lots of hillls but very fair. Friendly bar with great ambience at end of round with very reasonable prices. Overall great value for the money.
Reading Country Club - very good deal
Very cordial staff. Course in terrific condition. Great value. Hope see this course offered in the future.
Super friendly staff
New to the sport and a little hesitant at first. I was met by numerous staff all willing to take the time to answer my questions. I had a great day and enjoyed the entire experience.
Great course. Enjoyed the day
I will be going back to reading. Got a great deal on golf now and worth 3x what I paid. As u pull up to the club house it has a PGA course feel to it with a great view all around u. Staff was awesome and very friendly. One of the best courses I've played
Position play a must. Blind second shot on some holes. Nicely kept course.

Decent track
Good course condition. Layout is on the short side, although a couple par-3s are lengthy from the back tees. Overall, nothing great but not bad. Great value at the $16 I paid!
Nice traditional holes
Reading country club was in moderate condition and provided an enjoyable day of golf. Pro shop people were friendly and we had no problem with our golf now time. The course has some really nice holes and was in pretty good shape. Bunkers were sparce, but being worked on. The sand based bent grass greens putted very true with better than average speed. First time out on this course and I would go back.
Classic PA Course
Classic old time course in a nice setting. Short but play longer then listed yardage. Course was in great condition on the day I played. Will be back again.
Very enjoyable course
I really like this course. Challenging old- style layout in good condition with a really friendly staff.
Reading CC is a great place to play
Tree lined fairways, variety of holes, slope from the whites is 125 so it's a good test of skills, some blind shots on hills, creek running through 7 holes, well maintained throughout, and lightning fast greens with subtle breaks.
still one of the best deals around
Played here in April and the greens were lightning speed.. This is a real shotmaker's course and you need to know the course well to score well here... The elevation changes and slopes on the greens will eat your lunch the first few times you play here.. This course is great practice for teaching control of your game.. We got a deal for 15 dollars mid week and you just cant beat it.. The staff here is super as well.
