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.

Dog track of a course

My round at frog hollow was maybe one of the worst courses I’ve ever played. The tee boxes were filled with sand or sometimes places in the rough. The greens were sandy, burnt out, or just completely torn up. No true lies on the course, granted the off season conditions it was still absolutely terrible. I wouldn’t recommend this course to my greatest enemy.

February Golf

It is late Feb so getting a round of golf in is always "iffy" when it comes to the weather. Yesterday was in the low 60's and just right. Made a tee time at Frog Hollow and got my round done in 2.5 hours. This was only my second time playing Frog Hollow...the last time was some years ago. I had heard that they had had some issues late last season with their greens. One of the employees told me what happened and that there were also some "temp greens" while they worked to get the greens back in shape.....and they WERE WORKING to get the greens and the course back in shape for the new season. They have a lot of work to do, but that will not stop me from returning for another round if the weather cooperates like it did yesterday

Course in bad shape

The course was not worth the money. Most of the greens were unplayable. Needs a lot of work. I will not be playing there no time soon.

Still Needs a lot of Improving

As of 1/26, the course is showing signs of a turnaround, but it probably won't get back to how it once was until 2021, maybe fall of this year if they have/continue to put money towards repairing it. Still have 3 temp greens. A lot of greens have dead patches that are near impossible to putt through. All of their bunkers need new sand and many have standing water (granted it did rain heavily the day before). I'm really hoping the spring brings this course back to life, because I enjoy playing here when conditions are good.

The course was in rough condition. The fairways were in poor shape as well as the greens. Hopefully they will put some work into the course this winter and it will be in much better shape this spring.

Course needs time to heal !!

I have played this course many times in the past, I have always enjoyed the experience. Today when we played there were three temporary greens.They lost every Teebox, and every green was a disaster. The fairways were also in horrible shape.

This course is a good track. I don’t know what happened, but I hope they get the course back in shape.

What Can You Expect For $14?

Hey man, they're rebuilding some stuff and offering amazing deals while doing it; you can't front on that. I had a blast, and blew through 18 in 2 and a half hours, and 4 and a half hours with my friend last week.

Still Recovering but Getting Better

I rated this 5 stars because I trust that by next season it’ll be back to the way it was. But conditions today were about 2.5/5. Course color is coming back. Fairways still have a lot of patchy uneven areas and most of their greens had sand on them as they aerate and try to get them Healed. The temp greens are pretty rough as they’re on fairway grass. Some tee boxes just have dirt and there’s a lot of crab grass on the course. I played this course 5 times this season before the irrigation failure because I love the layout, the affordability and is one of my favorites in the area. However, I won’t be back this season. We’ll see how things are come next spring.

Frog hollow

The course was in horrible shape. Played here a few years ago...like as recently as two years ago and the course was in great shape. This time the same couldn’t be said. It is off season(still warm plenty of locals still playing often) but this was really bad the greens are in real bad shape some aren’t even being used so you’re putting on the fairway. Not a fun round.

Currently a waste of money

Used to be a favorite of mine now I don't plan on playing it again until some serious maintenance is done. It has really gone downhill with fairways in dreadful conditions. The greens are being worked on it they're ot great and in fact when I played there were alternative greens which were simply awful. No longer an option for me..
