Type Public
Par 70
Length 6402 yards
Slope 126
Rating 70.6

Northampton Valley Country Club, proudly owned by Northampton Township, the golf course first opened in 1963. It is well known among locals as one of the Greater Philadelphia area's best courses. The layout has a classic design with tree-lined fairways and gently sloped greens. Several strategically placed bunkers lurk along the greens and there are a few water hazards that come into play as well. The par-70 golf course is a manageable 6,400 yards from the back tees. It's a traditional design that is player friendly enough for all skill levels but there are risk-reward opportunities that will appeal to low handicappers. In addition to the golf course, Northampton Valley has a driving range with new range balls which is open to the public and a 10,000 sq. ft. practice green with a pristine sand trap for patrons to work on their short game.

Nice course but so slow

I booked as a single and went off around 8am. Sent out with three other guys and had a great round until we had to start waiting to tee off Bc of slow play in front of us on the second hole. The group ahead of us called the clubhouse to complain when we got to hole 5. 20+ min later the ranger came out. I love the course but a 5+ Hours for a round is terrible. I paid more to play early hoping to avoid the long round and it didn't pay off.

A Golf Day Dream

I was a single player and was matched with another to play the round. It was a very enjoyable experience. The other player(Fabio) provided me with some very useful putting tips that enabled me to putt better on this course than ever before. I was even able to break 100. Great time!

course good shape....usually poor pace of play....indifferent attitude

Have played this course off and on for over 20 years. Stopped playing a while ago when they had an alternating 7 and 8 minute t time schedule. Started playing again a few years ago when they went back to 8 minute t times. Course is rumored to be up for sale and they are trying to maximize sales. We played on a Thursday morning.....course was not busy......maybe 40 cars in lot. Our 3some teed off mid morning and played the first 9 in 1:45.....saw no other group in front of us. As we are playing #9, we notice a 3some playing 10.....they must have been in the restaurant. As we finish 9 and approach 10 t box another 3some comes out of restaurant and tees off ahead of us. We waited on every shot thereafter. We called the pro shop and they basically did nothing. Another group behind us started to wait as well. The slow 3 some was hitting balls 50 yards and sometimes taking two shots. Mike, the manager claimed they were "on pace" and we should stop complaining. This is commonplace at this course. If you don't mind a 4:45 - 5 hour round, this is the place to go. Appears place is trying to maximize sales and anything goes. Beer is an overpriced 13.50 a pitcher. Won't be going back. Too many other good alternatives in area that have better attitudes.

1st tee time for the day

All was great at first. What turned out to be a great tee time turned into a daunting task of getting caught up by the grounds keepers this early in the morning. Instead of letting a playing golfer continue, I was held up for an average of 5 minutes per hole. At lest by the 9th hole, they began letting me play through. The course was awesome and I would have given higher ratings except for the delays experienced.

If I play here again, it will not be the first tee time of the day.

Top Notch

I loved this course and enjoyed a round at a golf course which cared about its appearance. Greens were what I call Country Club fast and true. They were probably the largest greens I ever played on but that was fine with me.

Tee Boxes

Nice course and well taken care of fairways. Greens are fast and are in good shape. Tee Boxes were not very good, need some work. Did not intermingle with staff much, starter was very nice.

Perfect Weather makes for great golf

MY buddy and I were paired with 2 other golfers. It was a great day and the venue was tremendous. Despite the great weather, it was not too crowded on the course. Th course is very challenging even the par 3s require your attention. No putting your game on auto-pilot.

Easy play, well kept, learn obstacles

I liked this course and played well. Big mistakes possible if you don't check hazard distances. Long balls make all part 5 reachable in 2. Couple of really pretty holes. Good course maintenance.

Great Value

My fiend and I found this course on golf now. While we live in NJ the 45 minute drive to this course is well worth it. We have played here 3 times now and always enjoyed the course. The start is very friendly and will provide good advice about the course. There is plenty of variety on the holes with water and sloping fairways. Also most greens have slopes which make being below the flag key. The summer weather is impacting the course a little but no more than other courses we have played. The rate on golf now also makes it great value. Highly recommend

Fun yet challenging

Took the afternoon to play 18 with my wife and we loved it! We thought we'd picked a tee time where we'd be able to play without pairing up but it didn't work out lol. Nevertheless had a great time.
