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.

This course is worth the trip!

While there are probably over 100 golf courses closer to me that I can play on it is always worth the 50 minute trip to play at Golden Oaks. The staff is top notch! The course is sooo beautiful and challenging. The greens are in perfect shape and give as "true" a roll as anywhere. Will be back again within a few weeks.

Hidden Gem

Starts with a beautiful driveway to drop your bag in front of an incredible clubhouse. After parking we were there an hour early and went into the proshop and was welcomed by the staff.. Got our complimentary small bucket of balls to hit at their grass driving range. Had a tee time for two and got paired with two very nice guys. Pace of play was just under 4 hours and that’s with about 10 women in the groups ahead of us.

Now for the course. Tee boxes are in incredible shape, fairways, plush and soft, the first cut of rough was in perfect shape with workers out all day that I could see and never were a problem. The greens rolled true and were impeccable. The only knock on the course was the sand traps they could actually use some sand in them. I felt they were a little hard pan and to be totally honest they were groomed very nicely. The course is very scenic and challenges you on almost every hole.

Lunch after the round was very reasonably priced and their Chicken salad is other worldly. A perfect ending to a great round of golf on a beautiful course. The cost of the round plus the hour and a half to drive there was well worth my time and money. This course will definitely go into my fall rotation as I could only imagine what this course would look like during the change of season!

Beautiful but overbooked and stressful

The course is beautiful and challenging. The course was overbooked and the master was all over us about pace of play, the tees we were hitting from. Made the round completely rushed and stressful when we weren’t even playing that slow. Ruined the whole outing for us.

I would not recommend this course to anyone but scratch golfers that like to get the round over with as fast as possible. If you have any type of handicap or like to enjoy yourself, go somewhere else. What a shame to have a bad experience, lots of potential here!

Always in Good Shape and Fun to Play

Golden Oaks has great golf architecture, fast greens, and good pacing with 10 minute tee times. Always fun to play without being overly difficult. The final 4 holes are as good a set of finishing holes that you will find in a public course in the area.

Great Course

Excellent course couldn't be any better. The only thing missing is a marshall, so that the pace of play would be quicker.

Great Day

Great weather. Great course. Friendly staff. And outside deck with great food and after round beverages. Lobe this layout and the challenges afforded by multiple tee boxes should meet everyone’s needs. My only issue is some of the traps need sand as the bottom was more of a dirt floor than sand. But this will not deter my wife and I from returning.
