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.

The course continues to be a great value and is in very good shape for this time of year. The greens were very nice as well.

The staff leaves is not very friendly and continues to leave a lot to be desired.

Spring Work Is Paying Off

Tl;dr - best bang for you buck course in the area and a great course period. Enough challenges to keep you thinking and approachable in difficultly and cultural temperament for the average weekend warrior (me).

I have played Frog Hollow about six times over the past year. The mid week rates on GolfNow are the best in the area, including the local municipal courses. For its price, the value is top-notch. This past round, it was apparent how much work had been done over the past month on the fairways and greens. The greens were even and fast, challenging without imperfections. The fairways were much improved from over the winter, as you would expect after the rain, and what I can only assume is some watering, the fairways were soft and forgiving, for those who may dig a little deeper on miss hits. The clientele in the mid morning teetimes are generally very friendly, and excepting of players, who may play slower than average. This will not be the last time I play at Frog Hollow this month.

Great home course and friendly staff on the course and bar

Course is in very nice shape and everything went well from check-in to our gathering after our round in the bar. Greens were fast, fairways nice and plenty of soft sand in the bunkers this year.

Poor service

The website talks about their fantastic bar and pub, but they failed to mention that they are closed on Monday. Customer service inside the clubhouse very lacking. The range and golf cart assistant was very professional.

To be called a “clubhouse” , yet failing to provide even ice for a customers personal cooler even after the request shows lack of customer service and care .

“Customer Service “ would be stretching the truth at this facility.

Great deal

First time playing this course - for the $ it was a great deal. Only criticism is that the Gold tee markers were not in place. We met another golfer who explained they aren't placed until April 1st. Course should consider another set of tees a bit shorter than the Gold as it is still quite long for senior golfers. Overall great value.

Ok layout, needs work, lots of hackers that don't look fix their damage

Frog hollow is a decent layout although a bit boring, nestled in what looks to have been a decent community at one point. The main issue I have with it is that it looks like they haven't done any fall/winter maintenance and drainage seems to be lacking. Twice my tee shots were 80% plugged into the turf, there are huge swaths of fairway divots that havent been smoothed or filled, only 1 tee box (whites) is currently marked and 2 of those are closed with artificial mats in their place. I didn't see any sign of maintenance or repair being performed on either the closed or currently open tee boxes nor to the fairways. The sand was actually pretty decent and consistent except for one bunker where the rake was missing and it clearly hadn't been manicured by a machine in a while. I get it that maintenance is expensive but use your golfers to help, encourage them to fill divots and repair ball marks. If your golfers see a lot of divots filled, they're more likely to fill their own. Encourage fixing 2 ball marks on every green instead of just your own.
