Thank God for Jaws!
Great courses for the money ! High class The greens are perfect . I love this course
Very good condition considering its early in the season
Downingtown cc is one of my personal favorites The pace of play has never been a problem at this course. I always seem to have an enjoyable round
Great course
Really enjoyed playing downingtown, greens are a small and played very fast at times, unpredictable though not as much break as you would think. Definitely would play again especially since it is now a Jaworski Course.
Winter rules
Greens still feeling the wrath of the winter but could not beat the price on a holiday weekend. My favorite course in the area.
Loved the layout
Really enjoyed the round. For the middle of December the course was in great shape. The round was fast and the staff was nice. Definetly playing there again.
looked good for fall
It was a beautiful day so it was busy for a Tue afternoon so pace was a little slow for my liking. They were doing some work on the course but otherwise was in good shape for late fall.
Could be better
Not worth what they are charging. The bunkers were not raked, and they are a lot of them .Greens needed to be blown of leaves and twigs
Nice course that's overpriced
Downingtown Country club is in good conditions. The prices without golfnow.com are seriously way overpriced . $80 rates. Really? That's ridiculous , it should be $35 weekdays and $50 weekends.
Honestly whoever is paying those rates, you are the reason why they continue to charge those rates. Stop paying such rates for one season and watch them come to reality and charge better rates.
Till then they will keep charging those Wall Street rates. This is downingtown not manhattan
Tough Greens, Creative Design
I don't know much about George Fazio, but he put together a truly entertaining and challenging course here. Greens are large an undulating with many options for pin placements. The greens are sneaky fast with challenging reads. Course is not long and has more than a few non-driver holes, but has enough long holes to keep the grip it and rip guys happy, If this was a private club I would join it. I always walk off wanting another crack at it.
Great course for the money
The course is in excellent condition and has the feel of an old country club. Very private and landscaping throughout the course is very well kept. The course is not long but shorter holes are offset by challenging greens and pin placements. Greens are firm, fast, and plenty of slope. Greens are pro difficulty.
First time at course
Just moved to Philly and this is the first course I played in the area. Very friendly staff course was in very good condition. Not overly long but fairly tight on a number of holes.
Would definitely go back.
Good time, good play
The one negative, a couple of the bunkers were muddy, other then that it was crowded, but finished in 4 hours, and 20 minutes, couple of holes we had 2-5 minutes wait
Best public course around
I belong to 4 private clubs and this course is still in my top 5 public courses. The George Fazio design is excellent with no two holes the same. Excellent walking course, very challenging but fair. Staff there are awesome and so is the food. You must have their hot dog, the best!
Bring a group of friends
We played here yesterday as a group of 16,, The club was very friendly from the first phone call ( Dante & Ken ) to the last drink ( Ally ) The course was in good condition and clean. The heat was tough and the bugs were tougher !! the bunkers where alittle thin as far as sand goes but thats the only downside. Everyone liked the course and said they will play it again I will too. Great chicken wings.
Average course - Could be much better
I have played downingtown couple of times last year, it used to be good and well managed..but now it seems the environment has deteriorated over the period of time.
Some of the greens are true to the speed and some are not. Pace of play is horrid, no marshall to keep up the pace.. it seems they just focus on the bookings from the morning.. anyone playing after 4 or 5 they don't really bother to have them keep up the pace.
I had booked to play for 18 holes but when i reached there were no starters for the 5:40 timing.. kept waiting for some time and then learnt they have a league on the front-9..i have to go the back-9...
I will play this course again only if i get a good price deal and as it is near to my place ..but anything beyond $40 is pretty high..
Over priced for what you get
Way too expensive for the quality of the course.
No sand in bunkers, just dirt and mud, can't control the ball out of any bunker. Most tee boxes are chewed up. Greens are good and fairways are in good shape.
For $80+ dollars, you should get better quality. Mentioned to staff and got "I know, we've heard it before"
Fun Course with Interesting Greens
Downingtown is not a long course but offers a lot of fun. All the holes are unique and have plenty of character, especially the greens and strategic placement of bunkers, mounds, and water hazards. Definitely a shot makers course. If I pick a shortcoming, it would be the conditioning. For the money they charge, course conditions should be improved a notch or two.
This course brings variety and challenge.
Overall course is in great condition. Nice fairways and well kept greens. Good variety of holes. Bunkers are the only question. They are more like firm dirt than sand. Otherwise a very fun course to play.
Needs sand!
The tee boxes, fairways and greens were in great shape but the lack of sand in the traps cheapened the overall quality of the course.
This place has slipped
Downingtown used to be one of my favorite golf courses. I arrived and there was no starter. I had to find a cart to take out, and ended up having to clean someone's used cart out. Because there was no starter, the group I was supposed to be paired up with went out as a threesome ahead of a twosome, who declined to let me play with them. Thankfully, thunder started and the twosome left, and I skipped a hole to pass the threesome. The greens were somewhat slow, and were peppered with ballmarks. Perhaps because they overcharge for them in the pro shop, but I digress..... The course is somewhat short , but ALOT of fun to play. Bunkers were bare and muddy, but with the abundance of rain, that can be forgiven. Overall, I would suggest not trying to get out here for a quick round, or within a day of a heavy rain. Still a good track, but nothing like it's past glory.
