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.

Going through changes... for the worst in my opinion.

I typically have liked this course because it’s affordable, forgiving and close.

Im a mid handicapper but have occasionally shot in the 70s.

Maybe I’m belly aching but they are growing the rough pretty high and it’s now VERY easy to lose a ball even on a hit that’s not very far off. This, in turn, slows play since at least one person is always looking for their ball and just makes playing this course not fun.

Second, right now, the greens are not receptive. Anytime you hit a high wedge and it still rolls out 10 feet to me is a problem.

So, altogether, on top of price hikes this year, it’s unforgiving and then when you hit a good shot into the green, it actually might roll well past it’s target. This especially sucks when approach is from the short side.

Id look elsewhere in the area first.

Last time at this course

Its unfortunate that this course has gone down hill. We played several times last year and that is why we went back again. The bunkers were in horrible shape. The fairways are not cared for at all. The Tee boxes need care. The only thing that was enjoyable and challenging was the greens.

The pace was very slow. At one point there were 5 groups waiting on one hole. The staff told us that we were on time. Open holes in front of the first group and yet we were still waiting. Anyway, we won't be back

Okay course

Course was okay with a fun layout. That’s about the nicest thing i can say unfortunately. This course has the worst bunkers i have ever seen. The fairways have patches of crabgrass and dandelions. During our round there was a five group back up on the tee. The other twosome we were with called the ranger, he came out and said that in 4.5 hours the group is keeping on pace because they were on the 16ths tee. That puts us at a 5 to 5.5 hr round. That’s a little long for me. If they keep up the course better it could be a really fun track.

Beautiful day to play

It was a nice day playing., even the the three in front of us were slow. At least we didn’t have anyone after us. We had to stop at the 18th hole because the slow pace of the three before us caused my legs to give out.

The course is very nice.

Course

Great course for the money. They need to cut down some of the high growth further away from the fairways and greens. You should be able to find your ball 15 feet off the fairway or green.

Worth playing

I like this coarse - a lot. My foursome usually plays late in the morning. Pace of play not an issue for us. New owners. Coarse is in very good shape. Greens are not flat. They are tricky. If you are on the wrong side of the green, a three put is possible. Some holes are open, others are more challenging. I travel 20 mies to Frog Hollow, and it's worth every mile. As they say, ' GO PLAY !! "

Nice layout

Course was in good shape and has a great layout. The traps needed work sand was hard. The play was slow and I didn’t see a ranger. Luckily we were able to jump ahead of the slow threesome in front of us at the turn.

Great course to play

Frog Hollow provides a golf experience much like the more expensive courses in our area, but for a very affordable green fee. It is challenging enough to make it interesting but also accessible to all skills.

good condition

Fairways and Greens in very good condition, rough not cut too high, fortunately, I stayed out of the sand, but it looked liked some of the sand traps needed minor work, some of them (not all) looked more like dirt than sand, but, like I said this was only my impression from a distance, I was never in one.

Distance from tee

It seems the distances from the Teebox is not accurate. Also some of the boxes were actually in the rough for some reason, but no signs or even a mention of it by the Pro before starting the round.

Easter Golf

Course is in decent shape.

Greens were in good shape.

Par 3 tee boxes are all temporary, main tee boxes closed.

Issues... non fairway areas of course are covered in dandelions. Makes finding errant shots that miss the fairway very difficult..

Bunkers are horrible. Hard beach sand. Not gold course sand. All bunker sand should be replaced.
