Frog Hollow Golf Club
About
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.

Back to usual
Frog Hollow had some issues a couple years ago, but not anymore. The course is in above average shape and is very playable. The bunkers seem to be the only real issue I noticed this time around. ALL of them look like nothing has been done in well over a month. I guess if you don’t get in one it’s not a problem for you. I missed them all today, but all my playing partners had to either rake up a spot in the bunkers or just take it out of the bunker and not even mess with it.
I like the course and the fact they have kept the prices in check. They have done a great job with the rest of the course, but please spend some time and money on the bunkers. If that happens, 5 stars all the way!!!
Bunkers were poorly maintained. Layout is very nice and the greens well maintained.
Odd Staff Interactions, Poor pace of play
The course was in great shape, especially the tee boxes which is rare.
Interactions with the pro shop and starter were strange. The gentleman in the pro shop seemed generally annoyed by our presence when we checked. in. I'm not sure if he was having a bad day or what.
We were about half an hour early for our tee time at 9:40 with the intention of getting checked in, hitting the range and warming up on the practice green. I introduced myself to the starter on the way in to let him know we were there. He was sending the other half of our foursome off at 9:10 half an hour before our tee time and seemed annoyed that we didn't want to skip the range and go off with them right then and there.
We did end up rushing our warmup a bit and skipping the practice green. We paired up with a third that was waiting on the tee and hit the off 1 at 9:30. We quickly hit a log jam as the two from our original tee time had not made it very far and appeared to be sitting behind two more twosomes. Throughout the round there was a lot of waiting and a few instances of 3-4 groups on one hole. I'm not sure why none of these twosomes were grouped up together for the sake of pace.
The one bright spot on the staff was the cart girl, she was super friendly and talkative. We saw her several times and never had to wonder when our next refreshments would come.
Challenging greens
Course layout is interesting despite winding through residential property. Lots of narrow landing areas with traps woods and OB to deal with. Smooth receptive greens with lots of undulation. Bring your A game to score well.

Cursed at by employee over a key & Owner condones it
I arrived at the course and I approached the starter to inform him of my start time of 730AM. After giving him my name I was asked if I was by myself, to which I replied yes. The starter asked me if I wanted to go by myself since the other 730 group were waiting for another person. I said yes and he TOLD me to take any cart, never said that I need to check in since he had a tablet in his hand and I assumed that he can check me in on it. In hind site always check in. About the fourth hole DOUG came running in his cart screaming at me that I stole a key from another cart and proceeded to scream at me although I was trying to explain to him what that started had told me to do. I never got in his face and actually I did not understand why he was infuriated about a key. Nevertheless when DOUG decided to leave he actually told me to go to you know where. Now this is the employee at the golf course speaking to a customer. Did not think that the behaviour came from the TOP, boy was I wrong. After finishing my round i went to speak to the manager about the employee cursing at me. He was very standofish from the beginning as I explained the confrontation and gave the guys name. The manager asked me if I can point the guy out, I was wondering why do I have to point the guy out if I just gave you his name. He is the employee there, Do you not know your employees? Then he proceeded to stated that it is better if all three of us can talk and I said yes, boy was I wrong. The standoffish manager had a conversation with DOUG outiside, and when they came back in it was obvious DOUG had his story. First thing out of the mangers mouth was "If I have somebody in my face I would tell them to go to you know where" to which I responded " You can say anything you want DOUG" and before you know it the manager intervene and the was the end of the conversation with him telling me not to come back. Very short and one sided conversation from management and to find out he was the owner PATRICK. The point here is if I am golfing I do not expect to be cursed at by an employee over a key.

Great course and layout
I would give this course all 5 stars, but I can’t due to the bunkers. I” be played over 20 years and it is looking GOOD. Course conditions were lacking for a few years, but the new owners are trying to bring this place back as it used to be.
Great prices and excellent staff. One of my favorites.
Best Value for your Bucks
Not only is the price right, but the course is in very good shape! From the tees to the fairways to the greens, most are In good to great shape. Bunkers are in need, but stay out and it great also!!
Decent place
This is the second time I’ve played here and both times the fairway and greens are wet, this time is was hot and dry but rained yesterday. Last time it hadn’t rained for a while and it was still wet and muddy. The rest of the course was fine and In good shape but all of us had a hard time hitting off the fairway with the swampy grass.
