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!

This is both a great and challenging course. Greens were perfect and lightening fast. I managed only one 3 putt though!

Several tees had forced carries of 175 yards from the white tees, better bring your “A” game!

Beautiful layout and conditions. Definitely put this course on your play list if you’re in the area!

Great value. It’s worth the drive from Philly.

It’s in great shape. Fun holes that make you think about your club selection. More than worth the hour drive. I will be back soon!

Tough Course

My birthday treat to myself. The layout is tough. Several force carries required which means laying up if you’re not a long ball hitter. I hit several shots that would been considered good shots at any of the other local courses. Basically I let my ego control my round instead of managing my way around the course. The course conditions are always very good. The greens always in great shape and fast. Typically I’ll play here just 1 time a year like on my birthday.

Delightful round at WCC

I played in a twosome on a glorious Tuesday morning. The course was in very good shape, and it was pretty busy. Everything was great from the Pro shop staff to the starter, to the nice carts, and I even played well. One problem: pace of play. It took us 445 to play 18. I get it that it’s a challenging course, but the GPS carts were constantly telling us that we were behind pace. We waited on every hole. I get it also that we were a twosome (and what should we expect?), but my respond to that is that my partner and I are not very good golfers and lost a dozen balls between us during the round, but you drop one and get on with it. But having said that, it was still a very enjoyable round and I will be back.

Nice course

The holes were interesting, the conditions were very good. driving range and chipping area is nice. Had slow people in front of us, but ranger was on it. The Restaurant is very good too. You don't go back to the clubhouse at 9, and only saw the cart girl once. So take plenty of food and drink.

Great layout with tough greens

Great day at White Clay Creek. Windy day combined with rock hard greens made it really tough. Greens had colored spots all over them that didn’t help green reading. Can’t wait to go back when greens are more receptive.

Not sure why they are charging for range balls if you pay greens fees.

White Clay Apr 2025

Disappointed range balls were no longer included in greens fee; and they didn't have balls available to hit at a price anyway. They seemed a little overwhelmed by the number of rounds played that day.
