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.

Do yourself a favor and play this course

Top notch maintenance of this course. Friendly staff. Backdrop is insane! This course has everything that you could ask for, wide open uphill and down hill par 5s, water and 100 yard down hill par 3s and everything in-between. Elevation change and hills along the rough make it challenging. Bunkers were soft sand. Again, backdrop is worth every penny!

Solid Spot

This was my first time at Broad Run. Bag drop was super nice, the guy with the cool beard in the pro shop was cool. Ranger was cool and so was the cart girl. Pace of play was great and course was actually a bit challenging. Loved it though.

Nice Golf Course, Horrible Rental Clubs.

The golf course was nice, and greens were in good condition. I needed to rent clubs, since I travelled across country for a short family visit. The clubs were in such bad shape, that I don't believe a secondhand store would offer them for sale. A club with their reputation should never offer such poor-quality set and charge for it. The driver I was first offered had no grip. I sincerely hope someone in a position to make some changes should look into it and actually do something to make it right. My experience playing this course could have been much better.

Expected more

I will be upfront, the weather was not great, but there were some other issues that stuck out. Particularly the staff. Chris was somewhat unfriendly and lacking personality. I thought the layout was pretty cool. The course sits on a large piece of property, and has some really cool features. I wouldn't pay $70 plus to play it again. I've played better courses for cheaper. The greens were just slightly above average. Like I said earlier, I'm sure the course is in better shape when the weather is better. Seems like the course doesn't hold water very well. Overall I would give it 7 out of 10

Hadn’t played Broad Run in several years

I had forgotten how funky the first three holes are. The course was in very good shape and pace of play was excellent for an afternoon tee time. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only other thing I didn’t like was they have large portions of fairways that are restricted for carts. That won’t bother some people, but I have limits on how much I can walk.

Overall, an enjoyable place to play.
