About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Too much
I have played this course several times. The pricing is ridiculous!!! 121 dollars with a small bucket PLUS an additional 10 dollars to book online. It was 95 degrees and humid and no water on the course. The bunkers were full of water and mud and were not well maintained. They are the most expensive public course in the area and the only course that doesn't provide water (Pandemic BS). Pace of play is always abysmal!! Never going back!!!
Cost Out of Line
Nice course. Very challenging. You do not want to play this course when it's cart path only.
The cost is problematic. Fee with cart is $86. There is no Friday senior rate and the senior week rate is still high. This course is anywhere from $20-40 over comparable local courses.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Broad Run Golfer's Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Golf Course in the Wrong Location
I think they placed Broad Run Golfers Club in a location where they had no right to place a golf course. Although very well maintained the course was laid out on and through a mountain. It would be impossible to walk this golf course, to say the least. If you have ever played a
P. B. Dye golf course, this is a design like his on steroids!
I love to play golf and do so as much as possible, whether I am playing well or not, but I really couldn't wait to be done playing. I'm sorry, but don't waste your time on this course.

Great course, slow play
Played here numerous times. Great scenic challenging course. Sub 8 handicap playing with 2 friends that only play 1-2 times a year. Got stuck behind 3some and ended up having to play a 6 hour round.
Waited on every shot. Ranger drove by numerous times during round but never was assisted in playing through or speeding up play.
Understand they may have been members, but 6 hours is ridiculous.
One of best courses in area minus the slow play.
Tough course
Course layout and conditions are very good. I do not recomend for novice golfers or people who struggle with walking hilly terrain. There is a long distance between some holes so it takes a little longer to play. For good golfers it is an excellent course, well designed and kept in great condition!
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!
Nothing to drink
Everything was perfect about the day and the course except they had no water on the course nor a cart person
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?!
the PARADOX
Well designed golf holes
Great condition and playability
Distance between tee & green is over a mile between some holes - would take 6 hours to walk it.
Turf on the Tees an issue.
Weeds an issue off-fairway.
Off fairway manicure needs.
Bunker was very concrete like.
Good tough course however.

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!
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.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes.
Your feedback helps us do better. We are looking into this issue and hope to resolve it promptly.
Thank you for visiting. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
