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.

Course needs water and cutting
The course is currently under stress due to broken irrigation panels. They are now fixed and I expect that things will be back to normal, which is normally in good condition.
I am not in favor of the new look keeping grasses off of the fairway really long. That and keeping that same long grass in areas around traps and inside the fairway on some par 3's is slowing up play, causing many lost balls and generally making the house unnecessarily difficult.
I would like to see it back that way it was before this change.
Not what it used to be
Overall condition is worst it’s ever been
Great layout but it’s not being maintained
We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We apologize that the course did not meet your expectations. However, we are glad you enjoyed the layout of the course. Thank you for playing Frog Hollow Golf Club!
Maybe Next Year
Frog Hollow is a really great golf course 90% of the time I've played there. Yesterday was my first round there this year and it has gone downhill by leaps and bounds. Greens and fairways are burnt out, some greens are cracked, the bunkers are full of weeds and rocks. The most frustrating part is, there is no advertising of the poor conditions anywhere and the fee to play is still $50. Management has to get a grip on the fact that they are not producing a golf course worth that. Having one day off a week and traveling 30 minutes to play a course in that bad of shape is a waste of time.
I'd recommend calling ahead before playing to get a status check on conditions.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recovery the fairways, greens, and bunkers. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game. Thank you for playing Frog Hollow Golf Club. We hope to see you again soon.
Course is lost
Don't waste your money or time. New ownership doesn't have a clue on how to to care for a course just wants your money. Course was always in great shape and a value for your money. 75% of the greens have been lost bunkers are over gown and unplayable. After the round discussed course condition with staff and asked how are you chaging full price for a cow pasture said simply sorry they were reevaluating the course at the time

Course in horrible shape. All the grass is dead.
What was once a great course is now an overgrown, unkept, and all around poorly managed golf club. Hopefully with the new owners they can turn things around
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We understand your frustration with the current state of our golf course. Please bear with us as we work diligently to make improvements. We hope you'll give us another try in the future. Thanks for choosing Frog Hollow Golf Club.
what happened?
This has always been a really good course. Great shape and fun to play. Yesterday I brought a friend from out of town to play a round on this "really nice course".
All 18 greens and the practice green was browned and in some places cracked. The fairways were not much better. The bunkers were weed filled. I don't know what happened here, but I won't be back there this year. If they still care, they need to shut it down and fix it.

Poorly Maintained
Very disappointing. Extremely burnt out on both the fairways and greens. Bunkers had little to no sand and a ton of grass coming through. Course may have been nice once opened, but they have seriously neglected the course. Worst condition of any course I've played all season. Avoid if possible.

Great Potential
The good: Nice layout, challenging holes, friendly staff, nice clubhouse, excellent restaurant and bar; the bad: poorly maintained course, excessive geese droppings, and raggedy weed filled bunkers. Conditions notwithstanding the course was fun to play..

I only put stars because I had to...
The course was in okay condition, the bunkers were AWFUL. The tee boxes were in somewhat good shape and the greens were burned out. However, the staff was on the greens treating them. The fairways were okay, the weeds were everywhere. I can deal with all that, what upset me the worst was the Pace Of Play. I was a single behind three groups of foursomes. One foursome let me through but these older men were taking their precious time, hitting 2&3 balls from the tee, searching for balls in the fescue and still wouldn’t let me pass. I finally got tired of waiting and just quit playing. I hate to throw money away but I couldn’t take it anymore, they were so bad one of the workers yelled are you “F**king kidding me.” I was like I’ve been dealing with it for about 9 holes. Get a ranger, fix those bunkers and the course may compete with the others in the area.

Nice Layout
Course has a nice layout, the best starter ( Brian ) in the region, greens are slow.
Bunkers need work immediately
Play here about twice a year over many years. This was the worse shape I have seen the course. Almost all of the bunkers are unplayable or "ground under repair". The greens were very slow, fairways and rough ok. We asked the pro in the shop about the bunkers, he said they have a plan to rebuild them. We eventually just started moving the ball out of the bunkers no closer to the hole. Hate to say it, but $30 wasn't really a good deal. Hope they don't go bankrupt.

Great course, Great food
Course is in great shape. We’re in a heat wave (92 today) and fairways and greens were perfect. Pace of play was great (front 9 in 1:20). Food and service in the clubhouse was top notch. Can’t recommend enough.
Hot day
In spite of the severe heat, golf course was fun. They provided many containers of water which helped tremendously.
the course is going thru a change in ownership
great lay out and great greens..fairway has some clover and other weeds but not to much to affect play..move ball..sand traps are playable but in bad shape with weeds growing..met up with groundskeeper Rick...during round and he explained that the new owners are upgrading the course due to bad management in past..the sand traps are poisoned due to the lack of repair and prior chemicals used..so must let the weeds take over then dig out all and replace... this course is playable and challenging..go and enjoy..time restraint prevented us from using restaurant..
will play this course again..no problem...
All is good
Course is in good shape could use some sand in the traps but still nice the restaurant food is great people nice
Challenging Course
First time playing here....
Well kept and very challenging
Thank you
