Golden Oaks Golf Club in Fleetwood, Pa. is considered one of Berks County's finest courses with a four-star rating from Golf Digest, which also named it as one of the top "Places to Play." It was voted the "Best Public Course" by readers of Berks County Magazine. Designed by local architect Jim Blaukovitch, the golf course has a classic design that appeals to players of all skill levels. The course has wide, inviting fairways but there are also some challenges provided by the rolling terrain, featuring elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Be prepared for a variety of uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies. Trees line Golden Oaks Golf Club's fairways and strategically placed bunkers protect the greensides. The golf course has some tricky holes but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Fantastic! As always! So far, they're doing great with leaf removal

The only reason why I did not give this 5 stars is because the bunkers have not been raked in a while. There's no rakes either due to covid-19. Other than that, the course conditions are outstanding! Especially the greens, which are running probably around a 12. The halfway house food is delicious as well. Can't wait for a week or two when the leaves turn. If you get a chance to play this gem, don't let it pass you by. If this course was any closer to Philadelphia you would be paying $100+ a round. I drive over an hour play this course and I'll do it any chance I get

Great for the money but slow pace of play

Over all it was a great experience and a fun course to play. We played from the back tees which made for a few challenging holes. The only downside we found was pace of play and waiting for most tee boxes. That being said our round was played mid day Sunday. The greens were fast but receptive and could use a little more care. Very few thin/bare lies which was nice.

Great course

Course was great. A bit challenging. Greens were aerated 2 weeks but I knew that when booking my teetime. Fairways were in good conditions as well as most of the ladies tees, albeit some were not level. Not sure if that is the norm for golf courses or all tees but for me it is one of the most important aspects. Would love to come back when the greens come in!

Great Course Overall

Overall this was a great course. I enjoyed the course as it was my first time playing. It definitely had some tough holes, but I did my best and I ended up shooting not too bad of a score for my first time there. It's a far drive from Philly but I've heard great reviews about the course so I came. I got paired up with a couple and they played a tad slow well that's an understatement but you get what you get and you don't get upset. Overall the course is great would definitely recommend coming and playing here again.

Golden Oaks a little tarnished

I gave Golden Oaks a top rating in the past but I have to drop a star today due to sub-optimal conditioning. Every bunker I saw or was in had mud or standing water in the middle; greens showed signs of recent aeration, were soft and a little bumpy with quite a few unfixed ball marks; some tees were in less than ideal shape with lots of unfixed divots.
