Back 9 is really nice.
Course is kept in really good condition. Staff is friendly and food is really excellent. It is not a difficult track, but a fun place to play. The front nine is nice, but the greens and tee boxes are close to each other from one hole to the next. Honestly, too close. The back nine is different and more spread out and is also hilly. I usually play the white tees at other clubs, but played the blues here and would recommend playing from the blues when you play Skippack, short track. They usually have cheaper rates then other courses near by. I enjoyed it and would play there again.
One of the most challenging par 4s around
Skippy is a local standard dating from circa 1960. #13 is just a bear, a downhill par 4 with so many things that can go wrong. It's just difficult to block those negative thoughts out. There's been a lot of rain lately so the rough is healthy but the greens could use a bit of mowing. Several of the bunkers were flooded or washed out but that happens. The design is mostly vanilla but it's still necessary to hit the shots. At some point, they should reconcile the yardages on the card and on the signs around the course. I suspect that the tips are shy of 6000 yards and even the scorecard says so. This is the cheaper option compared to Lederach or Centre Square. Pace of play... where does the time go? I'm pretty sure it was 5 hours plus. People need to be more self aware on that point.
Last three holes too one hour 15 min to play cause your average golfer there is very slow
Nice shape just plays slow maybe need separate tee times another 5 minutes apart
Rained heavily this week
Even though it had rained mostly this week(7inches),the course was in very good condition.A few holes were cart path only. Due to the wetness,the crews had been unable to cut the fairways and the greens for a few days which meant you got very little roll on your drives and the greens were slow and a little bumpy.My buddies and I will be back to play this course again very soon,hopefully during drier conditions.
The course was in nice shape.
Nice course, in good condition the fairways were nicely manicured ans we got a great price thru golf now.com. The greens were fast and undulating.
6 par 3's. Overall our 4 some had a great time and we will be going back to play there again !
In good shape
You come to expect good things from
Skippack GC. Enjoyed the round playing as a single. Hit some volume but was allowed to play through. Finished the round in a little over 3 hours and enjoyed the condition of the course.
Early Season
It was early in the season and we had a lot of rain the past week so the course was very wet but overall the course was playable. Folks were very friendly and I would like to go back when the grass starts to green up.
Solid course, can play slow at times.
Length is not there but many small changes in green contour and many challenging tee shots make this course respectable.
Course was in Great Condition.
Have played here many times, found the course in great condition.
Friendly course
Nice municipal course you can enjoy whenever you want to play golf
great place for your money
The place is in great shape and one of my favorite places to play. Jerry Ehrlich from the Great City of Philadelphia
really nice course!
First time playing this course. Greens were recently aerated. But overall in great shape. Played after a few days of rain also. Staff was friendly, tee boxes and fairways were in great shape. Will definitely be back soon!
Well designed layout
Very nice golf course. Greens a little slower than other courses I'm used to playing but still very playable. Overall conditions were decent and I enjoyed playing the course.
All around solid
Course was in good conditions, price is fair, good pace of play. The course is very open for the most part, but a few tricky holes that are tight.
Nice Course
I played this course for the first time this week, and I am definitely adding it into my rotation.
Not very long, but the greens and fairways are in good shape. Some of the tee boxes were pretty bad, not much grass and very sandy.
Front nine is very wide open, then it tightens up in the back with some tree lined fairways that require straight shots.
I wish these public courses would send a ranger around to hurry up some players... I respect people who want to play slow, but you need to allow groups to play through when there is nobody in front of you.
Good bang for the buck.
Overall the course was in good shape. The hilly terrain made for some difficult approach shots, and pin placements were in strategic areas. I'm definitely going to play the course again.
Outings, HS League and kids camp. No Starter.
Played Tuesday at 1:30. There wasn't a Starter and there were 6-7 groups (of 4-5 kids each) kids ages 8-12 going off before us. The local HS League was also waiting to tee off. We decided to tee off on 10. We played the 10th and on the 11th tee, found out we were in the middle of a womans outing. We went back to the 1st tee to plan our next move. By that time the Starter was there. He was very helpful. He told us to play holes 6 -9 and then he would see what he could do. So we jumped in front of the kids camp on hole 6 and played 6 - 9. After the 9th hole my playing partner quit. He had enough. After playing holes 1 thru 5, I returned to the clubhouse and the starter put me off on the back 9 in front of a men's league. I played the back 9 quickly and shot 5 over. The greens are in good shape, but long and slow. The fairways and tee boxes are thin and spotty. The rough is too long for the level of players (beginners) that are playing there
A fair test at less than 6000 yards
A mixture of tough holes with sideways lies and holes to score well. Tight proximity of fairways to each other. You must pay attention to other golfers if your not middle of your fairway. Nice outdoor snack area.
Don't let the yardage fool you!
Skippack is a fun and moderately challenging course. It is harder the first few times you play it because it has some blind landing areas. You will also find a lot of elevated greens to shoot at. The greens have subtle breaks in them that even after playing this course numerous times it still gets me from time to time.
Recently brought a friend out to it and we played from the back tees and he said that maybe we should have played from the whites. And the course is under 6000 from the back tees. If you are a straight hitter this course will not hurt you too much. But if you are a sprayer of the ball...it could be a long round!!
Good burgers at the turn that are grilled and quite tasty. Some maintenance could be better but all in all I recommend this hidden gem.
This course is a joke
Its slow, its crowded, bad greens, bad tee boxes, did I mention slow, only like 5600 yards....go play mini golf instead
