Rating Snapshot
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.

Classic course
The course topography stood out, this being my first playing of Reading. The sloping fairways were the highlight of the round. Definitely some interesting holes that make you think. The corridors are a bit narrow on some of the holes, but it seems like they are constantly improving the course. Solid course overall.
new course grest
Dave was so kind to let us start on back nine so we cruised through.....with Brian back the course is coming back to days of old just keep up the good work and we will continue to play a great GOLDEN AGE course
Fantastic spot
FWIW I'm an 11.7 handicap so not great not bad. Absolutely loved it here. Staff are amazing, and the course is a very fun blend of challenging but scorable. Will absolutely be driving from 40 minutes away to play again.
In very poor condition right now
Unfortunately, Reading CC is in poor condition relative to last year. Grass wasn’t cut on tee boxes, fairways or rough. There was no sand…I mean none in the bunkers. Looked like there were no maintenance crew out in a week.
Lots of changes
The upgrades here are great. New bar, dining, pool table, and simulators added..
As far as golfing,, the greens were aerated recently so putting was disappointing. Other than that, they are really working on maintaining this course. I hope the price remains reasonable though as this is my favorite course to play.
Good Golfing
Matched up with a group of three to make a foursome. Great group of guys. I had a fantastic time. Seems like RCC golfers have great golf etiquette. Third time I was matched up and third time it has been a pleasant experience.
RCC is one of the better, as well as more challenging, courses around.
Look forward to getting back out there.
Always Enjoyable
Drove an hour to play this course and it was well worth it. If it were geographically closer to Philly it would cost almost double the price.
It never fails that you meet the nicest people to play with. The staff treats you like you are old friends.
Course conditions were very good although their bunkers could use some TLC
Love playing here.
good job
have been playing RCC for years thru all the ups n downs I think new owners are on the right track to bring RCC back to great course
There are some branches on the fairway, greens are in the aeration not able to
People playing there are ignorant
I had a guy almost hit me and my gf without saying fore when we only a hundred yards away from him. A group of gentlemen behind us were rude because we let a group go in front of us at home and didn’t let them when we were in the middle of playing that hole.
Nice course
Early season course conditions looking forward to playing Again.
Short but challenging course
This is my first time playing Reading Counrty Club. The course design has interesting elevation changes, short fairways but challenging green layout. Pace of play is excellent. Our foursome finished 18 holes within 4 hours. Conditions of bunkers need to be improved (almost no soft sand). Great value for money. I’ll definitely be back again
