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.

Beautiful, challenging course

First time playing this challenging course. Very spread out and good amount of walking involved to most greens. The views are really beautiful! The course was in excellent shape and the staff was very friendly!!! We didn’t sit out and eat after on what was a nice patio with a beautiful view, maybe next time. Will definitely come again sometime..

Horribly slow

Broad run is a very demanding course requiring near perfect shot placement. As a result, poor shot selection can result in balls being lost and in deep rough. The day I played was incredibly slow at a well over 5 hour pace. This is DESPITE every golfer having their own cart. Broad run needs to stagger tee times further apart if they are going to charge $100 for a tee time. Really frustrating to have to wait on every single shot.

Great layout

A true test of golf from any set of tees.

Course conditions were ALMOST a 5

I would have rated it a 4.5 if that was an option.

Glad to be out playing the game.

One of the best in the area

On the expensive side but one of the nicest public courses in the area. The course is always in great condition and the tee times are properly spaced.

Awesome Golf Experience

First time playing on this course. What a gem!

Very pleasant experiences, the starter was very friendly and gave us numerous tips about the course. Since there was heavy rain in the forecast (which didn't happen) the course was wide open and we played in 3 hours. Overall conditions were impeccable. Greens rolled fast but true. For this early in the season great course conditions.

We had an enjoyable golfing experience and will definitely return to play again.

Winter conditions

The course is usually great the many times I’ve played it before - today it was not in good shape, although it’s early January, so how much can you expect ? There were 2 greens closed and cart path only. Just wish they would’ve notified Golfnow before posting the tee time with a notice. It was a long drive that i/we would’ve avoided if we had known

A perfect November Day

Course was in very good shape for this time of year with the pace of play uninterrupted . Still took us nearly 4:30 with a foursome.Two areas for improvement - most bunkers had substantial standing water several days after the last rain and many ball marks were left unrepaired making for unpredictable putting on nearly all the greens
