Rating 72.3

Frog Hollow Golf Club in Middletown boasts the title of "best public golf course" in Delaware. The course has a links-style layout that is challenging but still player-friendly enough to appeal to beginners, seniors, and juniors. The layout is wide open and quite forgiving but there are still plenty of hazards with which to contend. There are more than 50 strategically placed bunkers throughout the golf course. Their thoughtful placement makes up the bulk of the layout's challenges. There are ponds that come into play on six holes as well as tall native grasses that appear along the fairways and greens. The wind is often a factor on the course too and will test your accuracy even further. Frog Hollow Golf Club's par 3s and par 5s are manageable but the par 4s will test even the best players.

Tremendous value course

I had not played Frog Hollow in many years and played this past Saturday. While it was a bit squishy from a hard rain the night before, the greens remained excellent. Navigating around the large traps is key . The greens are enormous and undulating . We got a Saturday morning Hot Deal at an extremely good price and we really enjoyed the round. Holes 4 and 17 are two of the toughest par 4s you will ever encounter.

Fantastic, Fun Course

First, the gentlemen at the clubhouse gave me tips on how to play several holes since it was my first time playing. They were very friendly and even told me that I’d run into some groups and get slowed down. They were exactly right. Most groups let me play through until a couple of foursomes were holding everyone up.

The course is in immaculate shape except for several greens had ball marks on them. I think they were fresh and I assume the couple of foursomes were not fixing their ball marks so I can’t blame the course for that. Honestly, I think the foursomes were new golfers as I watched them play. Perhaps they didn’t know to repair their ball marks.

The course presents a good challenge and the fairways were difficult to hit as ball placement is a must. But recovering isn’t too hard. Just understand that it may be more difficult holding those greens out of the 2nd cut. Additionally, driver is not always needed with the tee shots. A wood, hybrid, or long iron could be better depending on the hole and you may be safer hitting fairways.

This may be my favorite course in the U.S. as the conditions were superb and the greens were very well-maintained. I just wish that golfers repaired ball marks. I’ll certainly play here the next time I’m within 100 miles of this course.

An under appreciated gem

There are better courses out there, but they cost a lot more. There are more immaculately manicured courses out there, but they cost a lot more when public and aren't typically open to the public anyway.

There are more interesting layouts out there, but not every course can be Pebble Beach. I'd sure like to play Pine Valley, which is not far from here, but that's not at all likely.

But if you want a great, enjoyable round and a well maintained and nicely laid out and reasonably prices PUBLIC course, it's hard to find a better deal than this course. All holes are fair and appropriately challenging. My overall favorite course in the area.

Great day of golf

My daughter and I just played frog hollow yesterday. It was great. I really like the layout of this course. The course is in great shape. I only saw one fairway that seemed to have some water damage in a small area. The greens are very nice, but challenging if you get on at the wrong spot. The two guys we played with were fantastic also. We could have used some more water out on the course as the jugs were there, but empty. The cart girl was around a lot though, which was helpful. Overall a great time and we will be back.

Actual course is great but I have the same complaint I have had before here. The staff is miserable and just plain rude. The pair of teenagers I was with got ripped by them when checking in over a misunderstanding of the rate. “Do you want to golf or not?!?!” Is what was told to these kids. It was the golf shop bald guy and the pro giving them a hard time.

Great course

Always like to play Frog Hollow. Only minor issue is that sand traps need more sand in some traps.
