Last minute fun
Good course, wouldnt be able to walk as it is a total of 10 miles as you weave between holes. But it was in good condition even though it was cold. Really enjoyed the scenery and the challenge. AND we paid 45 bucks, cant beat it.
Excellent course!
One of my favorite courses. They just finished aerating so it wasn't in perfect condition, but to keep it looking great, I understand that has to be done. Pace of play was a little slow and ranger passed us a couple of times and didn't say anything.I always play from the white tees and it is challenging, but the guys I played with were hitting from the black tees. Some of the holes are really difficult from the black tees, mostly because there are a couple of forced carries of 230 yds. Practice facility is great, I always try and get there an hour early just to use that. Probably the best course in the area.
Love to hear our course is one of our golfer's favorites! Thanks for the awesome review and we look forward to having you back soon!
Am awesome course
Will definitely play it again the only unfortunate thing was the that the greens were just airated.
Tony5439973 - Wow, thanks for the five star rating despite the greens being newly aerated. We are so glad you think our course is awesome and would definitely come back again! Can't wait!
aerated greens
Would like to have known greens were aerated. everything else was perfect. Weird finishing hole.
Thank you for the five star rating! We will make sure to inform our golfers of aeration so this doesn't happen again! We are glad everything else was perfect for you at White Clay Creek. Can't wait to have you back here soon!
Excellent Course
The overall facility and golf course is very nice. Excellent layout with a variety of different looking holes.
Awesome! Glad you loved the variety and the course itself here at White Clay Creek. We look forward to seeing you again - keep on practicing!
hidden gem
Not sure why this course doesn't attract more golfers but i guess that good for pace of play and the greens are immaculate and fast. lots of trouble on every hole, be prepared to donate a few balls to the course.
Great tip! Yes, shoot straight at White Clay Creek it can be quite the challenge. Thanks so much for your kind words we are happy to hear you enjoyed your round and consider the course a gem! See you again soon.
Great course!
First time playing at White Clay and will definitely visit again. Facility is great and the course is awesome. Very tough but fun.
Glad you found it a challenge! We can't wait to see you on your next round at White Clay Creek. Come back soon!
Great Time
The warm up facilities are top notch. It was a great value for the money. The technology for navigating the course was excellent. We played Sunday afternoon and the only negatives were the cold hotdogs from the cart girl and the restaurant closed just as we finished. we were looking forward to eating there.
Thanks for letting us know! We appreciate your review on White Clay Creek and glad you loved the practive facility before your round. We can't wait to see you again come back for a delicious meal at the course!
Great Course
Great Course, Great value through Golfnow. I always walk but this course is riding only and for good reason, long distances between holes. Most holes are tree lined and you're right next to the train tracks. The course was in good shape I played the black tees and shot near my handicap. Greens were pretty fast on the day I played and rolled true. I will try to play again.
Thank you for taking the time to review our course, White Clay Creek! Glad you enjoyed your round and the condition of the course. We can't wait to see you again!
Can't walk, but a fun track
WCC really does it up right with a great warm-up / practice facility to get you prepared for your round. PLEASE know your carry yardages b/ you have a lot of forced carry situations that will spoil your round if you play the wrong tees. Our GPS in the cart today was not working the entire back side and it made it difficult to get comfortable ( saving grace- had a yardage book from the first time we played the course). After 4 inches of rain the day before, the course was great! No mud balls or standing water. Bravo to the staff-
Thank you for taking the time to review and play our course, White Clay Creek! We have noted the GPS in cart situation thank you for bringing to our attention. We will let our staff in on your compliment much appreciated! Come back again soon.
enjoyed the course
some tough holes, but really enjoyed, as did the others in my foursome. Will definitely come back and play again
Awesome! Glad you had a great time at White Clay Creek. Come back and see us soon - we love our fans!
Just ok
Not as good as I expected, scored to handicap but the long ride between holes is distracting. Points to carry should be marked. Hot day , saw cart girl once and there is no club house access once you leave
Paul
Thanks for letting us know and for playing at White Clay Creek Country Club! We are sorry to hear that the bev cart was not as readily available as usual we will inform our staff. We hope to see you again on your next round!
Miles of cart paths and sever dogleg holes
The staff is very friendly. You drop your clubs in front of the clubhouse and they bring them around back, I personally do not like that as I am protective of my clubs, I do not like leaving them anywhere that I cannot see them, don't want anything stolen.
The practice facility is really nice, and it is free with a round of golf.
The course itself was in nice shape after not having any rain for weeks, few dry spots here and there but the fairways and greens were in great shape, even the first cut of rough was excellent.
The layout is not great, you could never walk the course. The distance from one hole to the next is way too long. It felt like I was driving the cart forever, and many times you would backtrack after getting to the hole to get to the next one or the fairway. Overall, too much cartpath.
I also found there were a lot of doglegs, which is ok, but these were severe, a lot of shots were blind and in hopes of finding fairway in the direction of the green. Lots of trees and water come into play, if you miss your tee shot you will lose a ball. I took a lot of drops, way more than I ever have before. The only somewhat saving grace was the GPS in the cart, it helped on the tougher holes. We played the black tees, 6467 yards, only one short par 3, 150 yards or so, all of the other were 185 or more.
Overall it was ok, I had a comp from my play at Delaware Park, that helped on the end since it was free.
The other aspect I did not like was not having a half way house after hole 9, they have a beverage cart running the course, but I do like that halfway feeling seeing the clubhouse and being able to walk in and get something quick to eat.
As of now I am not sure I would play it again, mainly due to the cart paths being way too long.
We hear your Rob! Thanks so much for writing a review and posting your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the majority of your experience, although, yes the course is sometimes long and the doglegs add an extra challenge to which GPS may come in handy on those blind shots. We appreciate your business and hope to see you on your next visit soon!
Always a treat
The course was in excellent shape for late summer, considering how little rain we've gotten. Some bare/dead spots here and there, but everything else was lush. Hot deal around 2pm was a bargain and a no-brainer; got us in ahead of all afternoon shotguns. Greens were rolling pretty true. To give you an idea of what kind of course this is, rangers were driving around handing out ice cold wet towels as late as 5pm to help beat the heat. Nuff said.
Hi thank you for playing at White Clay Creek CC, we really appreciate your feedback and are so happy to hear you got a great deal and enjoyed your round! Come back again soon!
Great course, But.....
Two hr. drive to play this course for the first time with my brother-in-law. 3 pm tee time Sunday following a Scramble. Okay, the greens are a little ruff, understandable! Starter tells us it is carts only no walking the course. Great! Should play at a reasonable rate of speed. The poor folks in front were up in years with their younger two sons. What is this course thinking not giving handicap carts to older players. I felt so sorry for the poor souls trying to get out to their ball on par 5’s only to try to get back to their carts and drive for their next shot. Good lord! The cart path only holes were not wet in any way, because I walked out in them! This course really needs to rethink their handicap policy for players that can still play and have trouble getting around. That was the front 9 !!
Back 9 was a twosome with one player giving golf lessons to the other player as they played. This included practicing hand position for several minutes on the tee box while we are sitting watching them hoping they pick up the pace. God forbid they knew anything about golf etiquette!! This course has Rangers, BUT you really have to question why. It was the longest round of golf I have played in my life!
Thank you for taking the time to review White Clay Creek CC we appreciate the feedback and are happy to hear you enjoyed the course. We're sorry to hear the pace of play was substandard during your round at our course. We will have our rangers and staff informed to be on the lookout for similar situations and to make the necessary adjustments. Let us know how we can your next round the best round!
White Clay Creek - Excellent Course
This course is in very good shape. Staff is always friendly and keep play moving. Got a great deal from golfnow.
Awesome! Thanks so much for playing White Clay Creek Country Club, we are so glad you enjoyed the conditions and the staff was on point. Glad you found a great deal, come back again and see us!
18th still a disappointment Not a very spectacular finishing hole
Course is challenging but fair. Layout is good but 18th hole feels like they just needed to fit in to complete course and should consider redesigning it.
Thanks for playing White Clay Creek Country Club! The 18th hole is definitely different, we appreciate you playing and glad you enjoyed the rest of the layout. Come back for a challenge and keep practicing!
Nice course but one i would play only once or twice more
Course in good shape. Greens roll fast and true even though they had a lot of un-repaired ball marks. Target golf so bring extra golf balls. Had fun but not sure I would play it more than one or two more times. Was worth the price just not my style of a golf course. Nice locker room and bar.
So glad you had a good time at White Clay Creek CC! We will inform our staff and crews regarding the ball marks. Come back and see us again soon!
Nice course and facility
Course in excellent shape. Too many unrepaired ball marks on greens, but greens were fast and true. Pace of play was slow, 5 hour round on a Friday afternoon. There is lots of trouble on every hole, play conservatively. Not a course to walk.
White Clay Creek is happy to hear you enjoyed the conditions of our course but it is unfortunate to hear pace of play was slightly slow. We hope you give our course another chance!
Great facility
Course was as advertised, great condition and excellently maintained. From the white tees don't expect to hit a driver much, forced carries and hazards lie in range of many peoples big dog.
Glad to hear we met the expectations that were advertised to you about our facility!
Seaview Stay & Play Golf Package
Thanks for the awesome review, mlloyd920! We agree, the scenery is amazing and definitely adds that extra perk to the course. We can't wait to have you back again soon!
