Designed by Rees Jones, Broad Run Golfer's Club boasts one of the best layouts in the area. The course sprawls across over 370 acres of rolling hills countryside. The dramatic elevations are definitely not something you would expect from a golf course that is conveniently situated so close to downtown Philadelphia. The elevated tees feel as though they're in the clouds and mature trees frame most of the holes. There are hazards lurking throughout the golf course including swampy marshlands and tall, dense grasses that are all just waiting to swallow errant shots. It is a challenging layout no doubt but it is made more player friendly with generous fairways and Jones was also light on the bunkering. One of the most difficult and scenic holes is the par-5 15th. This hole plays uphill, featuring a blind tee shot to a plateau green surrounded by trees.

Great golf course

This is a really great public course. Very very challenging. Pace of play is almost always an issue because they do no marshaling. Even so, it's a must play. The on site restaurant is phenomenal! Very scenic challenging layout!

Great Day

I was fortunate to play on a perfect weather day. Course was in great condition. I gave it one less star only because the greens still showed signs of having been aerated although putting conditions werent bad because of it. They do a greatj ob keeping this course in tip-top shape.

You really feel a sense of privacy on each hole and I especially like that each hole is interesting and fun to play. Course plays fair. Beautiful views throughout to boot

Staff could not have been friendlier! It really set the tone for the day.

It was an enjoyable day. Looking forward to returning.

One of the best

I play all over - Glenn mills, Bella, Ravens, Pilgrims Oak, Iron Valley . . . Broad Run is one of my tops. The views are breathtaking. The conditions are great. The holes are unique. Great starting and ending par 5s. Love this course. Little pricey now and if you catch a slow group it can be a while due to challenging holes. But relax and take it all in. Why rush?!

Happy Easter

Course was in outstanding condition. Worth the drive for sure. Bar was closed, guessing because it was a slow Sunday and Easter, but would have been nice to be able to get some refreshments at the turn.

Great course!

Used cart

3 holes closed, still charged $90

I love this course and have played it many, many times. BUT, the greens fees, especially off season, are way too high. Case in point, they had 3 holes closed along with a few other tee boxes, and the greens were slow and blotchy and they still charged $90. Should have been like $69-$74 for those conditions. I said something to the pro and he blamed Golf Now for not disclosing the conditions but he totally disregarded my feedback.

Great track

This is a really great and challenging golf course. Pace of play is consistently an issue. They do not monitor to make sure people keep moving. We have ended up standing around alot most of the rounds that I've played here. Yesterday was particularly bad. A foresome playing from the blues who should have been in front of the reds. Hunting for lost balls all day. Ranger actually came by and tried to hassle my group. We sent him forward but he was useless and never seen again.
