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, good value, a bit soggy

I played on a Tuesday midday on a beautiful sunny day. The course is always challenging (8,9,10, and lately #11 have destroyed my scores!), but it’s beautiful and the staff is great. After the recent rainstorms, the course was soggy, with cart paths only on half the holes and 90 degrees on the rest. Those much needed restrictions led to a 4:40 round, which is too long, but understandable.

july 21 2025

the two of us were 9 min ahead of pace but I felt we were being pressured by the twosome behind us. There should be a way to get people to slow down

in addition to speeding them up. there was no food service anywhere except for light snacks. since I missed breakfast and lunch, I was hungry. There should at least be cold sandwiches available from the fridge. some holes are hard to clear over the water and brush if you don’t hit it 200 yards in the air, maybe make white tees within 150 yards of clearing brush/water.

Really fun layout!

The course is not walkable because the layout is sprawling which is a good thing! Nature is abundant around the course. Deer with fawns, foxes, geese are all in abundance. The golf course has a great layout and challenges. There is a great chipping practice area and a large putting green. Plenty of movement on the greens to make it interesting. I thoroughly enjoyed my self!!

Great Course, Great Amenities

Played this course the first time yesterday. It's a great course in superior condition. If you can place your shots, it's not overly difficult; there are many holes where you are rewarded if you take the riskier route and succeed. The entire staff, from the pro shop to the cart girl, were top notch. It is pricey on the weekends but during the week you can get good rates.

Problem

On 15 my group was playing from the black tees. Can't see the teebox for the front tees as it is over the water and blocked by trees. We hit our teeshots non knowing the group in front of us was hitting. Since the pace of play was slow everyone was a bit frustrated. Some dude (I am being nice) from the group in front of us comes running back 120-150 yards and grabs two tee shots of ours and throws the balls into the water thinking we were hitting into his group. We never got a chance to catch up with them but the ranger said the club pro would come speak to them after we complained. As expected they sent our "someone" to speak with them but nothing was done. This kind of behavior cannot be tolerated on the course. It was a mistake and that is not how you handle a misunderstanding. We did not get a chance to apologize to the group in front of us and some other golfers would end up on YouTube in those fights you see on the golf course. Not in any kind of hurry to return and play there again or tell anyone about the course if the are ineffective in maintaining the pace of play and/or not willing to discipline behavior like we experienced.

Love this place!!!

The first time I played here I was only able to get the first 9 holes in. So was excited to get back and play the whole course. This place is great. The employees are awesome and very helpful. The practice range and chipping and putting areas are the best around. The course was in great condition and fun to play. Hands down I think this is one of the best courses in Delaware and the Philly area.
