The course layout earns consistent praise, with a challenging design featuring narrow fairways and a notably stronger back nine. Friendly staff and solid amenities make the overall experience worth the affordable rate.

Way too slow

Get about 12-13 holes in and I give up the pace of play stinks at this course. Seriously need to fix it, last 8 times I’ve played here I average 14 holes played. Just not worth the money. Rather spend $20 more and finish 18.

Goofy layout front nine........PERFECT GREENS

The Good:

- GREENS ARE PERFECT ( as in the greenskeeper should get a raise or an award! How this public course greens can be nice is ridiculously good!!!)

The Bad;

- Goofy front nice design

- Don''t be off the fairway AT ALL.......the rough was US OPEN length. Consider it a lost ball or hunt for it, horrendous lies, unfair really.

Blast from the past

Bensalem was the first course I ever played (20 years ago) and I've been looking for an opportunity to play it again. GolfNow had a Hot Deal for $28.50 so I grabbed it. My buddy had never played the course but had his first holy communion there so it was nostalgic for both of us. We had the third tee time and got paired up with another twosome. That got a little strange when they told us one of them had to get to work and asked us if we would mind if they played ahead and that they would skip a hole or two so the guy could get to work on time. We were fine with it but thought it was strange when they didn't skip any holes and we had to wait at the box and in the fairway a number of time for them. Not a big deal at all but thought it odd there wasn't a ranger on the course all day. It in no way took away from our enjoyment of the round.

The course was in excellent shape except for the traps. It had rained quite often and hard the day before so the traps were packed pretty tight and a few of them hadn't been raked by whomever had been in them last. That was pretty much the only drawback; the fairways were perfect, the rough a very nice length--challenging but not punitive-and the greens were mostly awesome. I say mostly because a few of them have some burn but it didn't really come into play. They are very varied in size, pretty fast (even with the rain the day before) and had lots of ridges and character. They were in no way easy but (even though I'm the epitome of mediocre) I enjoy challenging greens.

Its not a long course (good for me) but I think any level golfer would find enough challenges to enjoy their round. The par 3's were challenging and varied and there are some downhill holes and quite a few uphill from the tee box.

I didn't remember much from my round 20 years before and, even though I didn't expect the course to be bad in any way, we were extremely happy with the round. I'd say it's on par with but a bit nicer than other courses in the area like Melrose, Westwood (in NJ) and Rock Manor (in DE). Even at the regular price I'd say its an excellent value. II highly recommend you give the course a try if you haven't played it.

Wet but nice

Played day after hard rains but the course was firm in most spots but cart paths only. The starter did a great job and was making sure everyone with a tee time was getting off on time. This was really appreciated because of the people with no times who just wanted to start. The course was in great shape nice greens that rolled fast and true. Pace of play was good finished in 4 hrs. People I ran into all nice makes your round more enjoyable.

This course has a variety of holes, and requires you to get familiar with it to score better than a bogie game.

You always would feel welcome to the course and find a nice starter to begin with. There are few holes crossing each other with adequate distances between the green and the tee box. Staff are friendly and reasonable to accommodate a certain unusual golfers' needs once you become frequent and loyal player at the club. This course has great features with a variety of holes for par 70, including two each challenging par three and par five. You also may find a variety of ways to play here for a reasonable price with the book, golfnow.com or club's special group arrangement. Stress free staff and course before, during and after the play!

Absolutely Terrible

We booked on golf now for a 130 tee time. We went off fine but were not told that an outing was on the course. This was a Sunday afternoon and we played 11 holes in 4 hours 15 minutes before we called it quits. The hole we decided to quit on had was backed up with 3 4somes and 2 holes in front of them had 10 carts backed up. I have pictures if anyone is interested in seeing how this was even possible!! Will never play here again!!

Bensalem

Played in a steady drizzle, although greens were aerated, the ball rolled very well, even bought a new vokey wedge, great price $69 , the pro shop has very many good deals on clubs and accessories, cheaper then any golf course pro shop I've been to! Staff Is absolutely the friendliest staff I've seen , course is a nice layout, you can score well there , unless you really spray the ball!

Great value....

First off I have played this course since the 70s...still enjoy the layout. Course was pretty firm and took a little getting the feel. Greens rolled great, some tee boxes needed tlc but for August can't beat it! Paid $18 with a hot deal and played in 3 1/2 hours mid week. Will always come back!

Great way to spend my July 4th

Other than the pace of play, which we independently addressed by asking to join the twosome in front of us, the round was great.
