Downingtown Country Club

Ordinarily a little out of my budget. Great deal on GolfNow.

Nice course with parallel holes, allows good scoring if you hit straight.

I played at Dowingtown CC again because I'd enjoyed it so much the first time I'd played it (about 18 months ago). I played poorly on the front 9 -- the easier 9 -- but did great on the back 9 -- playing bogey golf. I enjoyed the traditional look, small greens, and fast greens, which brought me back for a repeat visit. No interactions with the grounds crew, staff, or halfway house, but I played at the crack of dawn. Course was in great condition, and the greens were lightning quick (compared to the last course I'd played down in VA the week before). Glad that I could walk the layout; made for a much more enjoyable experience, and $20 less expensive than advertised on Golf Now. I'll definitely play Downingtown CC again!

I played the back 9 in just over 2 hours. Pace of play was an issue, and there were no rangers out to keep pace of play going. The course itself was in decent shape, but there were a few downers. Sand traps in areas needed more sand - I hit two shots where the ball was sitting on hardpan in the middle of a sand trap. Also, the holes hadn't been cut for a while and were shaggy on the edges. On the positive side, the fairways were green and tee boxes were in good shape. The holes aren't real imaginative, but the par 3's were fun. Play the tips at this course.

Great challenging layout. Pricey when not using golf now. Good condition except bunkers need sand badly. Definitely worth a look otherwise.

Not a gem of a course for the green fees charged. Pace of play is slow

Loved this course, so glad I chose to play here for our Father's Day outing !

My wife and I have wanted to play Downingtown for a few years but just couldn't get it scheduled. This past Friday with the benefit of a GolfNow.com
discount we finally played the course. The staff was very friendly and the course was a real gem. The course is not overly long but it is long enough. The greens are in great condition and are fast and challenging. The pace of play was excellent. We finished the round in 3 and 1/2 hours. This course is a must play. You will be happy you did !

I got on the course on a friday for $25 on golfnow...which is a far cry from what the course itself charges. But nevertheless, the course is well-maintained and definitely a fun course to play. Fast greens, pretty wide fairways, (though there are trees on both ends, so you've got to keep it relatively straight), fair amount of bunkers (not in great condition). But the greens alone make the course worth it. Pretty short course...but it's a fun afternoon on a course which you can try and score low.

While well maintained, the course it self (layout) doesn't warrant what they charge on weekends or even weekdays for that matter. So fantastic course for a golf now hot rate. Most of the front nine is unremarkable, most holes have wide fairways, but bunkers playing into almost every tee shot gets old after awhile. Layout is such that you hit the same club into the green after a good drive on most holes, I've never used my 6 iron so much in one round. Greens were fast but held shots, so that was nice.

Course was in great shape, and got a discount for my wife as it was Mother's day. The golf shop hooked us up with a third (turned out to be a friend of ours). We went out as a threesome and needed to ask if we could play through for the foursome in front of us and the threesome in from of them. No marshals were on the course. We ended up playing in just under 4 hours, approximately 4 holes ahead of those behind us.

Nice spot, looks to have a lot of history, just wish that the traps were better. One inch of dirt/sand and then hard pan really takes the fun out if it. Also you could leave your driver at home for 15 of the 18 holes, but still fun shot making, nice setting.

Course was in good condition for early spring. Greens a little slow but not too bad.

Layout not very exciting. I was lucky to book for cheap through golf now. Full price would be a bad deal.

Great conditions. Nice course.
Very close to home.
Nice bar and resturant.

I have played this course a few times and each time it has moved in the 3:30 to 4:15 range. In my most recent play, I can say that this course withstood the harsh conditions of the summer weather and is in very good shape. The greens roll very well but on the slower side. This is a very walkable course. When booked at high periods the price is a bit high with cart. It is enjoyable for all levels of play. There are no better courses for public play within a 10 mile radius. Clubhouse and pro shop are top level!

Nice course. Tight fairways . Greens in good shape

This is one of the nicer courses in the area. The tee boxes are generally in great shape, the fairways have some thin spots but there aren't many courses around that don't. The greens are always in pretty great condition too.

Is it worth the full $80 greens fees? Absolutely not. I'll always jump on a deal when there's one available for this course though.

Great course to play and easy to walk. The course difficulty increases greatly relative to pin placement. Expensive without a golf now discount.

We've had an awful lot of rain lately, and it showed. Course was soft all over, fairways were shaggy because it has been too wet to mow. Greens were soft and much slower than usual. But there was plenty of grass everywhere, and this course should be back in nice shape as soon as it dries out. Normally not a problem in August, but this year it is.
