Skippack Golf Course

Loved the course. Everyone was so friendly. In the afternoon they had many young golfers with coaches that held things up...but once we passed them it was great.

I have golfed at this course more than any other course in my short golfing experience.

I love the course for being a municipal course in a state park. Its a pretty course and I enjoy playing it. Good pace of play. In all the times I golf here, there is ALWAYS something that leaves a bad taste in my mouth for the day.

1. People play balls that do not belong to them.

2. Course is FULL of divots all over the place.

3. Tee boxes are DESTROYED

4. The starter at this course is rather inhospitable.

5. Geese EVERYWHERE and not afraid of being in the way.

6. Sometimes difficult to know where the line of play for a hole is. The course map is not very descriptive to the actual holes.

Positives:

1. The par 3s are great holes.

2. Some beautiful scenery.

3. The par 5s are challenging.

Played Skippack for the first time and the course was in pretty good condition. The greens could use a little additional care or maybe people could fix their balls! The par 3's where dimpled and needed to be rolled. The staff was friendly and provided a very nice player book for the course that made play easier. The driving range could use some work the ball machine ate $3 dollars before it give us some of the smoothest dimple free balls I have ever seen. Starter got us off on time and paired my twosome with two other golfers. They where walking but it did not slow us down too much; we were in a cart. The problem came at the turn we where 2 hours for the front nine which for a Saturday was pretty good. We had two walkers play nine starting on 10 and they caught the foursome ahead of them at 12. We waited 10-15 minutes on each tee from the 13-17 which also happen to be the most difficult holes on the course as well. Our walking partner left after 14 and the four behind us quit on 16 the staff did nothing to pick up the pace of play even though peopled called from the tees to complain. In all I'll be back just not on the weekend.

Of note the greens play like they are Bermuda you need to read grain and slope to make putts drop.

Nice well kept, very forgiven with friendly and helpful staff at a reasonable rate what else could you want.

The course is really beautiful and in very good shape. It's very hilly so not a great course to walk unless you're in great shape.

Just played here and the course was in the worst shape I've ever seen it. Greens were inconsistent and rough was not evenly cut.

Good course for the money, however pace of place makes it very difficult. Behind a group of 2 that held everything up for the rest of us. Took forever to even get thru 9, paid for 18 but after waiting and waiting we got discouraged and ended only after nine. Course would be better if pace of play was better.

Pace of play was terrible, staff did. Nothing to try and speed it up

Nice open fairways , challenging undiuating greens. Some traps, minimal water hazards

course was in bad shape, especially the greens

Greens were horrendous and I felt like I was putting in a sandbox, otherwise always a good value course

I wish they would have said something about aerating the entire front 9 before I booked it. I raced there to fit in all 18 holes before it got dark. When I paid at the course they told me we had to play back 9 twice. It was so backed up it took 5 hours and we didn't finish... I would have played some other place, but we did not have enough light to go someplace else. I love booking online, but this is the exact reason why you should always call first.....

8:00 tee time. Just two of us. Foursome ahead didn't really hold us up. Nobody behind us.

Course was in pretty good shape for March.

Why don't more people fix ball marks on the green? Just wondering.

Short course with very reachable par 5's, but a couple longer par 3's which are always annoying :) Course was in good condition especially for being the first weekend of spring, but some holes have multiple cut holes on each green which seemed odd. Overall a nice day.

One big con for me was that the course was not marked very well as far as how to get to some tee boxes. Had to constantly check the back of the card to see where to go.

Very nice public course. Considering the time of year it was in great condition. Some challenging holes and tough greens. Good test for a moderate golfer.

The tee boxes, fairways, and greens all need some work. The tee boxes look neglected. The practice green was awful looking. Sand traps also need to be refilled. I like going to skippack golf course as I worked there during college. It takes me back going there. The course needs some money sunk into it. I don't think they get the play to justify the investment though. It's a catch 22. Not a bad course for a practice round though.

I find that this course plays incredibly slowly - nearly always. During this visit (likely my last), I know it is still winter, I found the course just not ready for play. As expected there were no functional ball washers on the course, but during a week where the temperature was 60 or above you would think that they could have at least had tee markers out. They were moving cup locations during our round and the greens were ugly. Sorry, I will only play this course again in a dire emergency. Oh, did I mention that the sand traps on this course are as bad as I have ever played - this too is not an aberration - they always stink.

Great day for golf. Temps in the 70s.

The course was in pretty good condition especially considering how early in the season it is. No tee markers out yet so we used our best guess for teeing off. Rotating hole/flag positions also helped keeps things nice. Nobody seems to fix their ball marks on the greens and the greens haven't been rolled yet but all things considered it was pretty good. Except for 12, 13 and 14, the course is just as it seems and is very playable - fun even.

Enjoy your round, I always do at Skippack! Oh, and grab a hot dog at the turn from the outdoor grill, they're really good. It wasn't opened during our round bur we've had them before and our mouths watered thinking about them around the 7th hole.

The course was in good shape considering it is December-BUT this course needs to clean up its sand bunkers to make playing here more enjoyable

Very short course, most holes fairly wide open. Undulating, fast greens are the test here.
