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.

Greens : - (

I like this course and would normally recommend playing this course. However, WHAT HAPPENED to the greens? It seemed like every green had 30-60% damage. Usually most courses the Fairways and greens are in good shape. Tee boxes... not so much.

Didn't get a chance to talk to someone about what happened to the greens. Normally this course is always in great shape. It's usually worth the 1hr + drive to play here. I hope next season they are back on track.

Nice established course

Nice course with forgiving fairways and plenty of elevation changes. Some greens were distressed ( probably from flooding). Definitely would go back- good value

Always a Treat

Have played 5 or 6 rounds here this season and it is always a pleasure and worth the 75 minute drive each way. I only wish it was closer to my house. The staff is wonderful and the players I have met have all been delightful. Greens were in great shape. The bunkers were sugary and in good shape. Lots of elevated greens with gentle undulations. Play it, you will like it!

It's a treat

I've been playing this course ever since it became public about 20 years ago. Always enjoy it. Not real long but good for me. Lots of hills and sloped fairways just to keep you honest. The greens, fairways and tee boxes were in above average condition. Try it you'll like it!

Meh

If you love hilly courses, have at it. Pace of play was was atrocious. Ruined the experience. Greens rolled nice, fairways were good. Tee boxes needed a trim.
