White Clay Creek Country Club at Delaware Park is a challenging but playable layout that is well known amongst locals. At just over 7,000 yards, the golf course offers a fair amount of challenges. Water hazards come into play on most holes, demanding several difficult forced carries. There are also some spots on the course that can be quite narrow. The terrain is mostly flat but the layout provides enough diversity to appeal to both low and high handicappers. White Clay Creek has a strong reputation not only for the golf course but also for its various amenities, which give it the feel of a private club. Staff assists you with getting your clubs to and from your car and use of the driving range and chipping green are included in the reasonable fee.

Great course. Awesome touch screen in cart. No need for my android to keep score. Price was right. Lots of rain this fall into this oncoming winter so lots of puddling of run off water. Thank god cart path is in great shape. Best I have seen in a while. Was windy and chilly on our day but that doesn't stop us. Dress properly. Especially if you love this sport. Big course, be prepared to enjoy the nice scenic views. We will be back.

A fantastic golf experience

This course makes you feel you are playing a hundred year old championship course in PA.

From the professional driving range to perfectly true greens and beautiful fairways this is a great golf experience.

But be forewarned , you need to drive the ball long and stay in the fairways because the ruff is not forgiving and most likely you will lose your ball. Also there is the meandering monster white clay creek , I will leave that for you to discover. LOL

Tough course

The course layout was tough. Definitely makes you chose and play shots carefully. GPS on the cart was great to show the layout and yardage. Staff was friendly and helpful. Rained the night before which made cart path only and a long day (5 hrs). Group in front made for even slower play. Very easy to lose balls with hazards and the time of year. Would play again during summer when not cart path only and no leaves on the ground. Definitely recommended

Extremely difficult course for those over 20 handicap

Played from the white tees (5800 yds). Many long carries from the tees. Several holes with multiple creek crossings or other major hazards. Shot accuracy required on many holes with little forgiveness. Many cart path only holes due to course conditions.

Solid course

It was my second time playing. Only downside was my cart happened to not have a reverse switch (it was broken) and rattled the whole round. Had a lot of fun and the course was in amazing shape for November!

Soggy Day

Staff was attentive and very covid prepped.

Course was wet so cartpath only. Ranger was friendly and checking for pace of play. The layout with where the creeks and layups are hindered me from my scoring potential.

Greens were fast and rolling true. Staff was punctual in retrieving and collecting bags from parking lot.

Glad to have booked on a deal time.

Great layout but course is always wet

It is def not a hacker type course but unless u can carry your driver 250, it plays really long even from the White tees. Your are only getting carry didtance at this course. Problem is the fairways are always soaked and was cart path only both time I was there. And I play with first timers so cart path only made it super hard. They ball was plugging in the fairway even with a driver so if you miss the fairway and it plugs in the rough, you might as well take a drop and dont waste time looking. You will not find it. What made it annoying is that we were having a rough time finding our balls that barely missed the fairways and the closest group was a hole and half behind us and the Marshall still told us to speed up. Seems unnecessary if we are not hold others up.

Not what it’s cracked up to be

Was warned about slo play. Obvious the group in front of us wasn’t. Over 5 hours and never did I see a ranger move them along. Only used the driver once. Too many layup holes. Was cart path only. It would have been nice to know as I have bad hips and a back. I would have never played here had I been given the option. I’ll stick with Bulle Rock...
