The Club at Shannondell

Shannondell is decent enough for being so close to Philly, but don't expect to get a quick round in. They don't pair people up so prepare for a long day. $50 for a weekend round is kind of steep for what it is, but you could do worse than playing here. The course is pretty short (I only hit driver 3 or 4 times) so I'd suggest to play from the Blues if you hit your driver over 265.

If you're a long hitter, there's not alot of holes to use your driver due to sand, narrow fairways, doglegs and difficult rough. Greens were slow, but there's been alot of rain lately. Didn't rush but played in under 3 hrs.(on a Friday).

I like playing the course because the condition was good especially the greens.

I like this course.

Some holes are narrow and lined with trees. Others are wide open.

Will play again!

Greens were great. Fairways were in great shape. As good as any course I played in the last year. Course is not super long, but back tees are as long as I usually play anyway. Tight fairways. Greens were lush, but relatively quick.

I've played Shannondell twice now, and I've enjoyed it thoroughly both times. The course is relatively short compared to most of the clubs I've played at, but where it lacks in distance, it makes up for in doglegs. The "grip it and rip it" approach will not work on this golf course. Some holes literally turn 90 degrees left or right. It's an interesting little track and it'll make you use all the clubs in your bag. The greens were a little slower than normal today (because of the rain), but otherwise the conditions were excellent.

Course is in good shape. Greens and teeboxes decent shape. Not very difficult - very good course for shorter hitters and husband and wife pairs. A little tight on the back nine. Price very reasonable. Friendly proshop. Bar and full service restaurant after the round very good.

Worth the money. Group in front of us was a bit slow. Need better signage to route around course, had to make a few u-turns to find tee boxes.

The course was in good shape for an early season round, but i remember why I haven't played this course in over ten years. the holes are overlapping and frequent shots are hit into groups on other holes. Our group was hit into several times and only once did we know that a ball was coming near us. DANGEROUS.

Worth the Golf Now Deal but too slow. Took us over five + hours to play.

Overall the course was in great shape. Only issue was the pace of play. A lot of waiting.

very disappointed...
woke up Sunday am and wanted to ;play a round.. sae the Golf Now ad for here... I know thew course is fairly easy so booked 10:52 tee time. Right before we were to tee off, the started telles us, "There is a shotgun starting time at 1:00 for an outing so you need to get to #10 before 1:00 or you will lose your place." Two hours and 8 minutes to play none on a sunday with slow players in front of us? Not possible.. played ywo holes .. which took almost 35 minutes because we had to wait for groups in front of us playting scatter golf... I requested a refund. They understood completely and told me I had to contact Golf Now... which I did and supposedly a refund is in the works. Just do not understabd why they rtried to get in any tee times past 10:30 (or even 10 :00)... Will NEVER play there again on a sunday... Just wich I had known BEFORE booked it so I could have gone elsewhere...

Course was in very good shape (especially the greens). Probably more challenging than most public courses. Pace of play was slower than expected, but may have reflected unusually bad play by my partner and me and surprisingly slow electric carts. (Others complained about slow carts, too!) Having said that, this was nonetheless a terrific value for the money ($18 pp for weekday afternoon in October. Much nicer than average "19th Hole" facilities.

Shannondell is alwayas in great condition. The fairways are lush and the greens are almost perfect.
The only drawback of this course is that it has a LOT of doglegs.
9 to be exact which can be challenging.

But it is still worth playing. I just heard that they may close the course due to the township owned land being turned into a YMCA.

The course offers a challenge but will not overwhelm the weekend golfer. The course is well maintained and a real value for the money. I often play here often, the pace of play is good and get the round in under 4.5 hrs

Course is narrow but fair. Not the type of course you can spray all over the place and still shoot in the 80's! I don't recommend it for the high handicapper although it is a short course! Anyone below a 20 handicap will not need driver!
