Chapel Hill Golf Course in Reading enjoys a scenic backdrop of mature forests. The tucked away locale provides a peacefully secluded setting that is ideal for a round of golf. While it may not seem like a long layout at just under 6,150 yards, you'll soon forget about any lack of length once you get on the golf course. From the very first hole you're confronted with a water hazard, a stream that weaves around five other holes. The layout forces you to think through each hole, making the tough decision between going for it or laying up. Accurate shot placement is crucial throughout the golf course, especially on the back nine where there are several tricky doglegs and tough uneven lies. Mature trees tightly line the fairways at Chapel Hill Golf Course, and the greens are framed with strategically placed bunkers.

Good course, friendly people

The staff, both at the clubhouse and the bar, are really friendly. The course was in good shape. The fairways could have been a little shorter, but not bad enough to complain. The course has some hazards and bunkers that make it challenging. It's definitely a course management type course.

The only negative is the dated course signs. As first timers here, my group did not always know where to go. Also, there was no help on the course for distance to hazards, either on the hole sign or the score card.

Fun course to play

this course is fun to play with alot of options off the tee, many hazards in play so you have to think your way around this course, hitting a driver is not always your best option. At the price we payed though Golf Now this was a great bargin not to mention the course was in great shape. We loved it!

nice track

tremendous value for 18 holes. Not a long course, but you have to pay attention, as water comes into play regularly. Some very fun holes on this course

average course layout with fair conditions

Chapel Hill has a couple of interesting holes and a few tight ones. Small water hazards were as abundant as bunkers. Fairways and rough could use some weed control / greens were very fast and in great shape. Not much on elevation changes and no particular wow factor but for an inexpensive outing it was worth the $ paid and we moved along nicely throughout the afternoon.

Exceeded Expectations

I have played this course about 10 times and never really liked it in the past. My complaint was always that on more than half of the holes a water feature forced you to layup off the tee. Some of the creeks that crossed the fairways are now closed off or dried up and are now a non factor. THE COURSE WAS PRISTINE on 5/1/13. 90 degree rule was in effect (which I ususally find to be a pain) but the course was in such great shape I wouldn't care if they always use the 90 degree rule. This year I have played Berkleigh, Reading CC, Willow Hollow, Manor, Sea Palms (St. Simons Island). Chapel Hill was in the best shape w/ the lowest price.

wish we had known they were in midst of aerating and sanding the greens.

we knew the course is short and tight. Was not advised of ongoing aeration of greens which detracted from enjoymeny of our round of golf.

Great course for all players

This course throws different hazards at you. There are several water hazards that can really make you think. There are strategically placed bunkers and some narrow fairways. Driving straight is very important. This course is great for good players and a learning experience for duffers. Good luck on this course!
