Playing after Rain!

Nice, easy course to play. Long day of walking when carts were removed after rain. Would of liked to see option for carts and guidelines to stay on cart paths vs. needing to walk whole course.

US Open set up

I enjoy playing pilgrim's Oak but yesterday's course setup was like the US Open. We played from the Whites and most tee boxes were just ahead of the championship tees. Several pin positions were extremely extremely difficult like 11 and 16

Walked

Ive played Downingtown for years. Unfortunately the night before my round, we had a small storm come through. Now if you don't know, Dtown never has "cart path only" its "walking only". So I knew that going in but its still a little ridiculous that you can't ride a cart and walk to your ball. What really got to me was that at 4 pm there was a members league, so the course allowed the members to have carts but not us regular joes, pretty inclusive spot eh?

That being said, my round was in the afternoon and the place was practically empty (because of the known fact its walking only if theres a sprinkle of rain) so pace of play was great. The fairways and greens were in good shape, the rough was short and well maintained.

Great Day

First time at Downingtown CC. Long way to go for me (slightly over an hour drive) BUT I will definitely be back. Really enjoyed the round and liked the course which was in really good condition. We had perfect weather which obviously helped.

Great Course Just Not Worth The Greens Fes

First time playing and was pleasantly surprised by my round of golf. The course has a great layout and the greens were perfect. They could mow the tee boxes and take better care of the fairways and cart paths, which is why i don't think it was worth the $85 greens fees for a Sunday morning. There are other courses in the area that i would play before playing at Downingtown again.

I would recommend but ease your expectations and try to find a cheaper greens fee for later in the day.

Staff, Price, etc

Of all the golf course’s I play. This is my least favorite. I like playing everywhere. A majority of the staff are well below par. From the rude guys checking you in from the parking lot to some rude workers in the Proshop. The starters are 50/50. no hello, how are you., nothing. You are treated as though you do not belong there and then you get a Marshall that tells you to hurry up when your on the second tee box. Being in a foursome and taking maybe 10 minutes to play a hole is pretty average for a course that charges $77.50. I played board run the same week and paid $75.00, the difference between the courses is night and day. I wouldn’t pay more then $40.00 to play this course.

I have played this course with my family many times and the only reason I play here is because my family members have already picked there or are MEMBERS.

Course condition sub par

Have played Downingtown several times in the past. I was not impressed for the $60 price tag. I'd play this course for max $45. I played the Black tees, and the tee boxes were like hitting out of the rough and not well maintained.

Fairways also felt like the first cut of rough. Thankfully the greens were in decent shape. The course had double booked several tee times resulting in a 30 minute delay in tee time from 3:30 to 4.

I'd recommend walking this course instead of paying the extra $ for the cart.

Good local course to play with a junior

Kids play free with a paying adult. So we often bring our son to play here.

It's easy enough for young beginners to play, yet challenging for adults.

Disappointed

Have played this several times before, but not in at least 2 years. I was taking my grandson out for a round of golf and told him what a nice course we were going to play.

We were both very disappointed in the condition of the course. I understand it had been a hit, dry summer. But other public courses in the area (Honey Brook, Wyncote) receive heavy play and still have fairways with excellent grass cover. Downingtown has a nice layout and challenging holes. I paid $100 to play there. I would recommend management put some money back into the course and return it to the nice course it used to be.

I'm not picky.

Despite the work that the greens keepers were doing, I loved playing the course. We were done in 3 hours at a leisurely pace from the blues. 17 is a dandy!

Aerated mess

Greens and tee boxes were a mess from aeration. Play the course a few times a year and I think every time they have aerated. Just don’t know how they charge what they do for that crap. Not worth playing unless you get a deal.

Good course - needs more care

It was a good round overall - the greens are good, and the holes well structured. However the overall maintenance of the course needs to be improved (There were areas with rocks strewn all over, bad tee off areas)- specifically compared to the price charged by the course.

Disappointed

I have played this course before and enjoyed the experience. However, this time around, not so much. In general the course was not in very good condition. When you hit the ball in the fairway you expect to hit off grass. Not always the case. The pace of play was fair but we did wait for the group ahead of us fairly often. I think the course is over-priced for the quality of the product. I would definitely go to Honey Brook, as I will my next time around.
