White Clay Creek Country Club at Delaware Park
About
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 in excellent shape
White Clay Creek is currently in excellent shape and truly one of the best public courses in the Philadelphia region. Of the dozen courses I've played this year, White Clay is being maintained better than all the rest. Had a very enjoyable round today and got in at a 29 dollar rate too. You have to be really accurate off the tee on this course as there are many forced carries over wetlands. There are quite a few short par 4's on this course and if you hit it straight, you'll have a great chance to make some birdies. The greens are smooth and medium fast. The practice facility is the best here. The pro shop and locker room are top notch also and make you feel like you belong to a private club. There is only one negative and that is the 18th hole. Its a poorly designed hole, with a wide marshland that eats up good drives. I've seen a host of players hit good drives that appear to clear the marshland only to find out, they are well short and in the marsh. I hope someone will get some sense and make some needed changes to that hole.
Excellent!
Beautiful day for a beautiful golf course! Got an amazing rate through Golf Now (it was less than 50% the normal rate) and can't wait to play it again!
Happy to hear you got a great deal and enjoyed your round!
Always a treat
This course is one of the best in the Delaware area, located at Delaware Park. No two holes the same. White Clay Creek comes into play on several holes. Also well trapped and rolling elevation changes.

Best Wishes,
White Clay GC Management

best wishes,
White Clay CC Management
great
Best course in Delaware by far
We love our fans! Thank you.
Long day
The course was in great shape. My issue was that the staff harps on pace of play, though they did nothing to keep it moving. I played 9 holes in 3 hours. I'm not sure how you get 18 holes done in 4.5 hours that way. Again the course is great and a challenge.
We thank you for playing at White Clay Creek CC! We will notify our staff of the pace of play concern, we appreciate your feedback. Come back and see us again.
Slow day
Great conditions but slow. That would be fine but the staff brags about pace play, shame they did not assure it
We regret to hear the pace of play was not up to your expectations, come back and see us, let us know how we can make your round better while you're here.
The course was in great shape
The course was in great shape the greens needed some help
Thanks for playing at White Clay Creek! Come back and see us!
Thanks for playing at White Clay Creek, we appreciate the feedback! Come back and see us soon. We'll inform our staff and crews on the greens to get that addressed. Come back soon!
Very Senic
Second time I've played here and only my second round of golf this year. It is a very well maintained course. Tees are in great shape.. Greens had been airated recently but putted true.. I would play again..
Glad you loved the conditions here at White Clay Creek! Come back again soon.
Quirky
The design is decent enough until you get to #10. The hole is narrow with lateral hazards defining both sides placing a premium on accuracy, however there's a giant bunker complex in the middle of the narrow, sloping fairway where your drive should land. The hole just doesn't make sense. Then you're confronted with some additional awkward tee shots and approaches until you reach 18. This hole is vying with #10 as the worst hole on the course. Forced carry of 210 yards over a lateral hazard (black tees) or layup short and you're completely blocked on your second shot by a tree line on the right. I'd rather play Rock Manor every day of the week!
Thanks for leaving your review. We regret to hear you did not enjoy the layout of the course past hole 10 as much as possible, we hope you come back soon and give it another shot.
Enjoyable!!!
The course is in great shape and the greens were playing well after being aerated.
Thanks for playing at White Clay Creek, glad you loved the conditions. See you again soon!
White Clay Golf Cose
Excellent Value a this time of year. Very friendly staff, course in very good condition for March and great food and drink afer our roud
Great! Thanks so much for playing at White Clay Creek CC this early in the season. We are happy to hear you saw good value and the staff and conditions made your round that much more enjoyable. See you soon!
As always, a good experience
You can always count on the conditions being well above average here. Early in the season, so limited amenities , but that's to be expected. In season they are very responsive to needs .
Awesome! Thanks so much for playing at White Clay Creek CC, we are happy to hear you got to play so early in the seasons. We hope to see you again this season.
Winter weather but great course
This is a great risk/reward course. You either lay up or go for it on several holes which is always fun. It's still technically winter so there was no food/beverage cart going around and you do not pass the club house at the turn so go out prepared.
Thanks so much for playing at White Clay Creek CC! Glad you loved the challenge and thanks for playing in the off-season, happy to hear you made it out. We look forward to seeing you in the 2016 season!
Nice Track!
First time playing this track and I enjoyed it. I drove almost 2 hours to play this track but it was worth it. I had made a tee time that morning around 7a and on my way to the course I received a call from the clubhouse to inform me that there was a frost delay. Even though I was not too thrilled with the delay, I appreciated the courtesy to inform me before I arrived. My tee time was for 9:20a but did not get on until about 10:40a. I was paired with another single so it was nice to play with someone. This track is not for walking since there a couple holes that are quiet far from greens to next tee box. Having said that the course is really nice for it being on Delaware Start Park Racetrack. There was one hole that had so much goose droppings on the green that it was not even worth putting. They should have dogs out there to prevent that (just a suggestion). I will be coming back in the spring/summer time to play again.
Thank you for playing at White Clay Creek CC! We happy to hear your courtesy call was made which was a nice gesture and we're glad you got paired up with someone which made your round more enjoyable. We will address the greens concern which you mentioned and restore. Thanks so much for looking out and we can't to see you again!
Great Layout
Staff was friendly and helpful. Tee boxes were very good. Fairways were very good. The bunkers were alittle rough, needed to be raked, but good. The greens were bumpy and had many un-repaired ball marks. Loved the layout and pace of play was good. Great practice area with free range balls.
Thanks for leaving your review and for playing at White Clay Creek. Glad you enjoyed the round and the staff and tee box and fairway conditions were up to par. We will inform our staff of the bunkers and greens - we are working hard every day to make White Clay Creek the best yet. Come back and see us again!

Great Round
For this late in the year the course was in phenomenal condition. The staff is always friendly and they do a great a job of making sure the pace of play is on par.
We're happy to hear you enjoyed the conditions at the course and the pace of play was exceptional. We look forward to seeing you back for more at White Clay Creek!
Nice and well-maintained course
First time at this course. Course was in nice shape. We had to play from the forward tees probably because of the time of year. Staff was friendly. The winter rates are good and very reasonable for such a nice facility.
Great! Thank you for noticing our staff and glad you loved the round especially this time of year. Book online for the best rates. We can't wait to see you again soon!
Great choice for December prices
This course is a great layout, located in Delaware Park. Play is unusual this time of year anywhere,
so this course was a real treat. Invited two friends to go along. Had a great day.
Cool! Glad you and your two friends enjoyed your winter round at White Clay Creek. We are happy to hear you loved the layout of the course. Come back and see us!
Thanks so much for your feedback on the course, so glad you loved the course despite the 18th hole design. We'll assess it with our staff. Can't wait to see you back for more!
