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
Slow, slow, slow
10:20 t-time resulted in a 51/2 hr round on a wed. No excuse for that. No Marshall speeding play.. The two groups in front of us were together and playing for money . They were not good and took forever to get to green then were pathetically slow on putting. 3 holes open in front of these 2 groups. A lot of blind shots. Drive missed me by 5 yards over a rise from tee. SCARY! Take a ride up and make sure group in front has cleared, don’t hurt anyone!! I didn’t see you don’t cut it. Challenging course , haven’t had a 51/2 hr round in
25 yrs.
One of the best around southeastern PA
If you want a challenge from the tips, and good quality greens, try this course. Worth the money, and one of the best public spots in Southeastern PA.
Excellent layout and great staff
Beautiful Rees Jones design. Bent grass tee boxes, fairways and green. All in excellent shape. Very friendly staff. Excellent, challenging layout, very nice greens. Not a walkable course at all, so don’t go there looking for that. I can’t wait to play it again!
Best Course in the Area by Far
This is one of those courses that is beautiful and also visually intimidating. If you keep your wits about you and don’t get caught up in how tough it looks, you can play well and shoot a good score.
Great course, even better staff.
Friendly, welcoming, and fun - you can’t ask for a better experience.
Challenging golf on beautiful scenic course
Enjoyed each hole. A challenge with every shot. Staff are friendly. For the money it’s the best course in the area
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.
Hello, thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play during your round. Please know that this is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and to best control pace allowing everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve, and we are glad to see you rated the course conditions to be great during your game. Thank you for playing Broad Run Golfer's Club. We hope to see you again soon.
