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.

Great Track!

The morning I played was the first dry day in a week. So, the course was understandably soggy. The fairways were sloppy but the greens were in great shape. Held approach shots well but still rolled faster than average for the area. Layout is fantastic and overall conditions were above average even with the moisture. Great track!

A lot of fairways were dead and some greens. Overall I have seen the course in better shape. Too much water?

Still a fan, but....

Golden Oaks remains one of my favorite courses in the area, however I think that the course has deteriorated a bit from its normal pristine condition. In particular the bunkers are very hard and lacking much sand. The bunker near hole 4 has been under repair for a couple of years now. We happened to play on a day when the greens had been recently aerated which I understand is necessary but I wish courses would disclose that prior to booking. Having said all of this, the course is still a lot of fun to play.

Unprofessional staff

Our group was on pace to finish 18 holes in 4 hours and the starter came out to demand us to play faster. Felt rushed the entire day due to a group hitting into us. The was extremely unprofessional and ruined our round.

What happened

Have not played here in 2 years. It was always one of my favorite courses as conditions were exceptional. The front bunker on hole 4 is over grown, decorative areas are all weeds, and the rough is full of clover. The greens were slow. Not what I remember.

I know the area has received an abundance of rain recently and I hope the course goes back to what it once was

We appreciate your feedback and apologize for the current condition of the course. We understand that the front bunker on hole 4 is overgrown, the decorative areas are filled with weeds, and the rough is full of clover. Additionally, we acknowledge that the greens were slower than what you remember. We will take your comments into consideration and work towards improving the course to its former exceptional condition. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Go somewhere else

Greens are okay little on the slow side. No water on the course on a 90 degree day but the cart girl is coming by every other hole. Cash only. Bunkers were concrete with some having water in them no bunkers were raked this season . We saw several overgrown with weeds. Not worth the money as there are other courses available. It used to be a nice place. Not sure what they are doing. I know that they aren’t maintaining the course!
