Wyncote Golf Club
About
Wyncote Golf Club in Oxford is one of the most challenging courses in the area. The heathlands layout feels like a links course with wind being an important factor and thick fescue coming into play. The golf course starts with an especially tough front nine but there are more scoring opportunities on the back. Mounded bunkers and moguls define the movement of the fairways and though there aren't many trees, if you don't keep your shots straight you might find yourself out-of-bounds or lost in the high, wiry grass. Sidehill lies await you as well as a few blind shots. Wyncote's greens have little undulation but the lightning fast putting surfaces are a challenge for players of all skill levels. With a few "grip it and rip it" holes mixed in, Wyncote Golf Club is a tough but fair test.

Links play at its best!
Classic links course. Tight fairways, beautiful views, challenging greens. Thoroughly enjoyed playing this course. Tee boxes, fairways and greens in great shape. Wish the greens were cut a bit closer and faster.
Clubhouse service was fair at best; guy in the pro shop did not seem to be happy working there and had to wait 15 minutes to get served at the turn.
Play was a bit slow and no marshals present to speed play. If you were in the tall fescue, forget finding your ball. Suspect golfers spending too much time looking for balls is root cause for slow play.
Overall a really enjoyable & challenging course. Only thing preventing me from giving this a 5 star rating across the board are the multiple bad experiences in the clubhouse. Will definitely be back
Pace of play was exaggerated due to holiday. Typically not 5 hours. Course is in great shape but the rough is ruthless and captures way too many balls.
A treat as always
As always one of the best public courses in SE PA/northern DE region. Nice layout, excellent condition, smooth rolling greens
This is a Must play!
We drive over an hour to play this links course upwards of 7 times a year because it is that great of a course and It never disappoints! The name Wyncote, in Indian, means wind. So expect it! The conditions are simply outstanding and they have the best greens that I've played in the past month! The scenery is beautiful and you will even hear the occasional clip-clop of the Amish horses passing by. Wyncote is as difficult as you make it. If you play smart and hit good shots you'll stay out of the tall fescue, which is up to your knees, and you will have a good score. Can't say anything else about this course except get out and enjoy!
Beautiful fun course
My son and I had a fantastic time playing this course and the layout is very nice along with the country setting scenery. I would recommend this course to anyone who enjoys golf. This was our second time playing and they give you a free play after 5 times, so we will only pay for one next time out. Greens and fairways in excellent condition.
Always an enjoyable time
Great course kept in very good condition. Challen ging but fair.
Great course
Great layout, very good.condition. I make the trek to this course several times per year. Worth the trip
Top public course in the area
I have yet to have a bad time at Wyncote. I know every time we play there we are going to play a course that could be compared to any of the private clubs in the area. This course will test all golfers from any skill level. this course is tough but fair. This is just one of my favorite courses in the area and if I lived closer would be the only one I would play. I would recommend this to anyone who hasn't played it yet or if you have go back since it's always in great shape. Make sure you play the right set of tees though there is no reason to make it any tougher here then it already is. I just can't say enough about this course and how great it is.
Worth the trip
....from DELCO. Well conditioned course, must control driving accuracy. Putting greens very nice. Some pretty views.
Great course, excellent condition
What a great course! Conditions of the greens, fairways and boxes were fantastic. Love the risk, reward layout and the fescue is killer if you miss hit. Great value if you have the time and are willing to drive a bit from Philly.
Beautiful Course! Rude Ranger
Visiting from out of town and the reviews recommended Wyncote! Course was immaculate! Conditions were great. Todd from Golf Shop check in was nice. Ranger was rude, telling not asking to speed pace of play. Finished 18 in a little less than 4 hours. Why the rush? Amenities inside were good.
Great course
Whole course was in great shape greens were fast. Only like 2 trees in play on the entire course but a lot of high grass makes it very challenging. Only complaint I have was that there was no beer girl, but then again I did play on a Tuesday.
a real gem
if you live in southern chester county , you need to put this course on your list to play several times per year. the greens are a little slow right now but can much tougher as the season progresses. the only improvement I can see is a beverage/snack cart !!
Windy but a lot of potential
Day started off windy! Was surprised and impressed with the open-layout to the course, but the wind dictated most of my shots. On a gorgeous day, I'm sure it's great to play. Tee boxes were maintained, fairways were plush, but greens were a little disappointing. There was too much sand on the greens-- too much uneveness. Overall, my experience was great. I had fun, I played at a very chill pace with no one up my butt. I enjoyed my time at Wyncote. Would definitely come again. Lastly, If this was mid season I'd expect better course maintanence, but I understand why it's not, it's March 9th, haha!
Great course!
Got out on a beautiful day in February. The course is awesome! The conditions overall were good except that the greens were recently aerated and there was a little too much sand. Not a big deal but some were pretty slow. Overall, one of my favorite courses in Lancaster County!
