Solid Chester County Golf Club

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!

Always in very good condition

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.

A little wet

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.

Rip Off

I took a customer to this course on July 24, 2013 to play 18. We arrived at 10:45 to hit a few balls at the range before tee time at 11:15. I was told they had no range to warm up. I was then told to walk up and grab a cart and drive it to the 10th hole which I had to stop and ask 2 people how to get to the starter. While the gentleman was friendly in the pro shop I quickly noticed they are charging almost $80 and you have to go find your own cart, and locate the first hole. Once on the course I realized this is a course that should be charging no more than $40 to play and take a cart. It was in terrible condition. The fairways had random patches of high grass and every sand trap was a swimming pool of mud. Nothing was roped off. I was highly disappointed.

Great Course

Great course, lovely scenery. Got a great deal 2:40 pm during the week for 30$. Not a course i would usually play due to cost (regularly 80-100$) but when i can love this course.

With all the rain we had, it played well.

Bunkers had water in them and were not raked that day.

Greens ran a bit slow, but were in good shape.

This is a Great Wooded area located in the mid of a city.

You would never think you were in the city when you play.

Nice layout.....

Pricey

I live around the corner from here, and for as long as I can remember, this course is nice, but not at the prices they ask. Plenty of bunkers make up for the lack of water (i think there are 3 holes where water comes into play). The fairways were pretty hard, balls were bouncing 5 feet in the air off of tee shots. The course is nice, don't get me wrong, but I think that $70+ is a little too much for this course. Slammed into a small parcel of ground, they have definetly done a good job keeping the course somewhat challenging and in good shape. Only knock other than price is turf conditions; could play a little softer, and bunkers could use some more sand.

Close to Good

Greens are slow and traps are devoid of sand. Won't go back until they get traps to normal level of play.

Not many negatives

Great course for someone wanting to have a good round with some very challenging holes. Must keep the ball in the fairway - the rough, although not very high, balls will settle in.

Lack of driving range is probably the most common complaint. Lots of trees and great sight lines. I highly recommend the course

Greens are a bit slow, but true. Well-maintained fairways and greens. Super long hitters will need to back off a bit.

Great layout fun to play.

This is my second time here and I've had fun both times. The course has a great fun layout as a traditional style course should. Honest and straightforward with nothing tricked up, just plain fun. My only issue is with greens fees and lack of practice area, but this won't keep me from returning. The après golf is as good as it gets. Friendly bar/wait staff and very good food and beverage facilities. All in all a fun day.

Very enjoyable course with really fun layout.

This was the second time I played here and enjoyed it very much both times. Friendly staff and great après golf facilities. Layout is fun and honest. Nothing tricked up and true to form as a traditional layout. My only issue is with cost and lack of practice facility, but it won't keep me from returning. Great fun place to play. I recommend it highly.

Ball Placement Off Tee

Shorter course that most won't need driver most of the day,
it's all about ball placement with tree lined fairways, good amount of slope, and bunkers in the right protection spots.
Greens are generally quick for the area, pin placements are difficult, may slow pace of play
Overall, one should be a more practiced player if planning to head to Downingtown Club

Downingtown deserves a look

First trip to DCC and it was worth it.
Nice, traditional, Northeast layout. Tree-lined, but not too tight.
Several tee shots make you think.
Poa annua greens in great shape. Slope and rolls add speed.
Bunkers in good shape too.

Course in good condition

Purchased the Hot Deal at 30/person to play. At that price, it was a GREAT value. However, its 60/person price during weekdays may be a little high.

Overall, the course in great shape. Green was relatively OK. It would have been a bit better if they cut the grass on the green a little more.
