Northampton Valley Country Club
About
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.

So slow!!
3 hours to play the front 9. Left the 12th hole because three groups were waiting to tee off at 6:15.played a variety of holes after that. Tee times were 6 minutes apart ridiculous. Like this course but way to crowded. Won't go again on a Sunday or any time for a while. Got dark we finished at 7:45 pm. Started at 2:20 pm
slow play
tee boxes bad. greens stressed but ok...teed off on sunday 9:15 finished 2:30..very slow..people in front of us played blue tees and had no business.. Occasionally would see a starter drive around but never came to us..Never saw the starter attempt to move anyone along..a waste....too bad a nice layout with nice pro shop, bar and golf cart girl..
They need to move people along..never again at $72
Little Pricey for Condition
I've played the course quite a few times. Pace of Play is always an issue, unless you get out very early or if the weather is very hot. The cost of the round does not fit with the conditions of the tee boxes and the greens, which are poor. The greens were bare in spots and no one apparently feels the need to repair their ball marks or rake the bunkers (which were like concrete). However, the staff is friendly and the cart girls are attractive and attentive.
ok course
Not sure I would fork over $55 again to play this course. Id rather pay less and play a course in just as good shape or pay more and play a beautiful course
Some of the greens are not in good shape
Would recommend playing for $35 or less some of the greens need some work
very bad shape
For a $65.00 course you would expect alot more. the greens were in as horrible condition as any course i have ever played. many spots little or no grass. Large patches of sod replaced in many sections. Impossible to putt on. many greens need to be replaced. My group wont be going back there again for the foreseeable future.
Northampton Valley 6/6/15
There was an outing going on at the course so i expected the round to be a little bit slower, but it almost ended up being a 6 hour round. I think it took about 5 and a half hours.. Other than the pace of play being very slow, the course was in great condition, and was very fun to play. I would recommend to a friend to go on a weekday, rather than a weekend.
Greens need some help/time to re-grow
I love playing this course but the greens are unplayable on some holes and fair to bad on others. I heard that they had a sprinkler and/or fertilizer issue so hopefully the greens will be a lot better in a few weeks.
Awesome day!!!
After reading other reviews I was kind of worried about the pace of play. Usually it's 15min between tee times but here it's only 10 and they are very adiment about it. That being said this was not the case. We showed up a few min early to set up and make a few putts. And no one had a tee time in front of us so we asked to go a few min early and that was the pace for the whole day. Seemed like no one was on the course at all. The greens were a bit fast but very well kept up. The beer cart girl was super nice and seemed to be there whenever we needed her. My father and I are not very good golfers but we did great on this course. Very straight holes. Easy greens !!!!
In really good shape
Interesting layout with good variety of shot needs. Greens were In good shape and rolled well. Par 3 18th (200yds) is a challenging closing hole over a large pond.
Good fare in the grille...excellent cheese steak.
Good course, great day for golf
Spring finally sprung, so I'm back to B
Northhampton. The course will get much more challenging, but for now, the greens are a bit bumpy, slow, and I liked that.
Great course "usually", but shouldn't have even been open
I've played this course many times before and have always been pleased, but the course was in horrible shape this time. The greens were like lakes and even had mounds of ice built up around a few of them. Fairways were okay but soaken wet. Don't know if they are having financial troubles or what, but I don't believe that they would allow anyone on the course in such wet conditions ? I booked thru Golfnow and was charged $25, not sure if it was a discount or just normal twilight fee, but i would have been upsetif I had paid $10
Great challenge
Plenty of bunkers, length, water and turns to challenge your golf game. Got a great deal and want to return while the course is fresh in my mind.
frost delay
Had an early time because it was relatively inexpensive. The Pro and the assistant working the shop were great. Super friendly. Let us tee off early after the frost was mostly gone. Absolute pleasure. One of the best rounds.
Slow Play
Nice course, well maintained. The group in front of us was extremely slow on every green, we waited on every tee box and every shot to the greens. It was a shame that a great day was ruined by inconsiderate golfers.
Great value
Very well conditioned golf course with the fastest, truest greens I've seen in a long while. Will play his course again and try and learn how to get around it without getting into trouble. Need to be below the hole when putting because you don't want to have a downhiller here.
SLOWWWWWWWW
Pace of play was horrible. Every time I play here its the same thing. The course is over booked and takes forever to play. you sit waiting on the tee box with the group in front of you. I had the same tee time as someone from another group. The golf carts are in need of replacing. There was a threat of rain and no cover for the bags on the cart. Carts are old and in need of replacing. Course is over priced for what you are paying for. I won't be back.
book tee times 3 minutes apart ?
This course is ok, nothing special. I have played here a few times(not by choice, friends asked me to join them) If you have 5hrs + to spend waiting on every tee box, then you have found the right course. You have a single behind a twosome behind a threesome.
NO RANGER, NO STARTER = 5 1/2 hours of golf.
THIS COURSE IS KNOW FOR DOING THIS. I will not play here again.
Great course!
Well maintained. Great staff. A challenging and fun course! Reasonable fees. Food and bar staff are excellent! You won't be disappointed.
