Deerfield Golf & Tennis Club

You don't have to hit driver very often here, but you better make sure whatever you hit finds the fairways. Holes are framed well, and there's always a little more room around the greens than you'd think when you see the approach shots.

Course was in great shape (recently aerated, but greens still ran true), pace of play was great, staff was great, had a great time. Definitely recommend.

Course was in good shape and has some challenging holes. Old-style with small greens that were fast.

I have a lot of courses to choose from in this neck of the woods but this place is a great value for the buck.
Pace of play very good.
Great Bar and food

Challenging but fair! This course is not forgiving with lots of hills!

Although the greens had been aerated fairly recently, the course was in great condition.

First time out. Great course - both fun and challenging. There are several holes where you're not going to see where the ball is going to land. It won't be the last time I play this course.

Staff is extremly helpful and courteous. Every hole is unique and difficult.

I love this course. You can't beat the value of this place. Great patio for drinks after the round and a very challenging lay out that doesn't beat you up.

A lot of blind shots, and the fairways are hard and fast, but you better hit it in the right places, elevation changes and undulating fairways make club selection a premium , as some good shot carry through fairways into the rough, which isn't that penalizing, but its not the fairway. greens where running a little slower then we like but overall we really liked this course, and so will you

I have played Deerfield a number of times and have always enjoyed my experience. This course is challenging and beautiful. A lot of elevation changes makes it more challenging (fun for me) then a lot of courses in the DE area. I would recommend this course to anyone who has not been before.

The course has many elevation changes which provides lot's of blind and very difficult shots. If you miss on the wrong side your dead, and sometimes it feels like theres no good place to be at all. I love a challenge but Deerfield is a miss. It's the type of course you need to play 20 times before you ever really know what to do, and honestly you will find yourself all to often out of position even though you feel you hit a solid shot. You need your A game for sure and alot of paticence. If I play well I want to be rewarded, Deerfield will penalize you over and over no matter how well you strike it. I will not be playing here again. I shot an 80 mostly because I hit it long, thats an average score for me but I felt like I shot a 100. Very frustrating round of Golf, especially when I could have played a Gem like White Clay Creek which is only a few miles away. If you typically shot in the 90s or 100s find a different place to spend your money.

This course never seems to disappoint. It's always in excellent shape. Even in the deep summer, nothing is burnt out, greens are in perfect condition.

Pace of play was a little slow, only because there was a golf outing ahead of us. But the staff was conscious of getting them moving.

Will be back again.

I play here Friday 8/14/15 the course was in really nice shape requires a lot of different shots this is not a course for a high handicapper I played a 5 hour round be the Rangers never enforced slow players to speed up we complained to a ranger and he never really even said like ok guys I'll look into it nothing! And there's no water coolers on the course except for water fountains.. Really? Who really uses those anymore?!

It's have golf should be , the front nine nobody was on are back couldn't be more happy with the outing will be back again soon !!

Many tee shots at Deerfield, greens are out of sight..off the tee box, placement is extra extra extra important..take notes, you will be back.

It was my first time playing Deerfield. I showed up as a single and the starter tried to set me up with a twosome but they refused. I played as a single with the twosome waiting on every hole since I was playing behind four. One of the foursome dropped out after 9 but the remaining three didn't ask me to join them. I played the whole round as a single behind 3 and in front of 2. I found it very odd the starter or someone in the shop wasn't more insistent. The pace was 4 hours which isn't bad but a busy course on a Saturday they should never have let me out.

There was no ranger to control the players pace.
It took me an extra hour to play 18 whole. My teetime was 9:30.
It wasn't my first time playing at Deerfield and I pretty liked it before.
But this time it was so bad, I'm not sure if i want to go back and play...

Course in great shape. It was 90 degrees out and there were no water coolers set up on the course. Two water fountains (really), one on each nine, that tasted like warm ....! You can't bring a cooler out and they gouge you for water. Shocking for a high end golf course.

Signed up as a single but was paired up with 2 other singles, both of whom were nice guys. Had a good round, the course was in excellent shape, and for $20, could not be beat in this area.

Hole #1 is too difficult and tricky for an opener. The left part of the dogleg is severely downhill and bordered by tall trees on the corner. Lots more big elevation changes in store and few flat lies. Greens were in just average shape and a little slow. Tees were OK, not great. Fairways were good and traps were well-manicured. I wouldn’t want to play this every day, but it was a fun and challenging change of pace. Slope of 6,005 yard White Tees was 131.
Good deal at my $28.
