#1 tee looking straight down fairway to the green Photo submitted by BigJimSportSlam on 07/08/2013
Great course with fast pace greens that will challenge your putting skills. First Island green in the US - hole # 15. Definitely worth your time.
Great course
Great historic course with a unique layout and awesome views the entire round. Greens and fairways were in great shape, if you haven't played here make it happen you won't regret it.
Firm and fast greens
Challenging course. Somewhat narrow fairways, VERY firm and fast greens. Elevation changes. Uneven lies. Thick rough. Blind shots. This course is tough even though it's 5900 whites and 6200 blues
The course and slope rating needs to be changed. They need to re-rated much higher than they currently are. No way a "scratch" golfer is coming here and shooting 5 under par. I'm a 4 handicap and am thrilled with a round in the mid to high 70s
Galen gonna be good this year
After 8 days of green growth and super winds Sat., Galen is dry and greens are beginning to firm into the rollercoaster ride you've come to expect on this classic.
first round of year
just came off of my fourth week of physical therapy for my shoulder. my score was not good, forgot my wedge at home. Had a great time with my golf buddies
Very good winter golf
It was great to be out on a winter day - temp low 40's but no wind. Made good time & great to be playing.
Nice and green
Course in very good shape considering the amount of rain this summer. Some muddy spots but that was expected. Not expecting though to have to hit over a public road twice. Greens very fast. Ball just keeps rolling. Better off going for the front of the green. I did enjoy the views of the valley. Will definitely play again.
Hard Course, wet conditions
The course is challenging as always. There are some very rough patches due to the extremely wet weather this year. Most courses in Berks County have taken a beating. I would like to have seen some more cart restrictions on the fairways. They've lost part of their island green signature hole. I truly hope they repair it. Bridges and cart paths are getting a little rough. Hope they invest a little money to the course. It would be a shame to let it go the way some other local courses have.
Disappointed! Not worth the trip.
If you are a not so great golfer like myself then this course is not for you. A lot of hazards and high rough. The fairways were in terrible shape with mud everywhere. Cart got stuck in the mud on the 6th fairway. On the 2nd hole the car path is so steep that the golf cart almost spun out of control and flipped when I tried to stop, and half the course doesn’t even have a cart path. Drove from Philadelphia to play this 4.2 and was extremely dissatisfied. In my opinion the course is a 3.5 at best. Nats! Nats! Nats! Good luck putting on the greens as the Nats fly into your face.

great golf....
This is a great course ...from first tee, to 18th green....better be on top of your game for the day....was a little on the soggy side, nevertheless, great management of play required... A must play for any golfer in the area. ...will be a return customer..
To wet in places
All tee boxes & some fairways need a lot of work. #2 needs sign at tee box 4 distance to road. Greens fine. Cart paths need redo. Love the layout.

Just ok
I saw a lot of 4star reviews for this track, but I can’t agree. I know it’s been hot, but I saw too many burnt out spots, tee to green. Just ok. 3 stars
