Great course always well kept
I love this course. It is my favorite course to play in the tri state area. The course is always in great condition and the greens always rolling fast. The bunkers always have nice soft sand that makes hitting out of the bunkers easier. The course has a good mix of holes ( long par 4s, dog leg right and lefts, and a goodie of par 3s) I would recommend everyone to play this course.
very nice place to play, and a nice grill / bar as well.
Since it was early in the season,and the course was recently air rated I don't think it was where anybody wanted it. I can tell that in season it would be a very nice course. It has 5 tees so you can pick the best for you. My wife enjoyed playing there because they set the lady's tees to where she could enjoy a challenging round ,but fair. All of the staff were very nice and friendly even when reminding us to keep the pace. The Golfnow caddy deal made it even better.
A Great Experience
Staff were very cordial, Course was in great shape. Will definitely be back again.
Challenging course with some issues
The course has pretty good layout. Some very difficult holes with hazard and water carries throughout. We played from 6400. Other holes seemed gimmicky however. Lots of blind shots and instances of being penalized for laying up.
As far as the staff goes, we were told for our 140 tee time that they had run out of carts and 166 players were on the course! That's over 2 groups per hole! Seems WCC would rather make money off greensfees than have customers enjoy a round of golf at a challenging course.
A shot maker's delight
Accuracy is a must on this course. For a sprayer like myself, definitely need a few practice rounds on a less challenging golf course before I return.
Very challenging course
First time playing course. I'm not a long hitter and I played the white tees. Seems like I was always on the edge of water and bunker carries. I had 8 penalty strokes, most of them on front 9. I had better success on the back. Probably cause I relaxed and got over being intimated by what was in front of me. Played with 3 guys who knew the course and was glad I did, cause I would have been lost finding my way around. Some long distances between tees and some back tracking to get from tee to the fairway, pretty confusing for first time player. This is one of the toughest course I have ever played. Probably closest you will get to playing a upscale private course. First class service from pick up to returning clubs back to your car. Range is included in price. Only complaint was that it was in upper 80"s and no cart girl service. Only way I could play this course is by using GolfNow, otherwise it would be too expensive for me.
Great challenging Arthur Hill design...bring and extra sleeve and then some!
Early April rd, so greens were only half-healed from aeration and were top-dressed. Hence they were on the slow side, but they were tricky and would yield many 3-putts when stimped at their usual 10+. Expect twice as many lost balls on the many water holes and I imagine the fescue would be impossible when not dormant. Impossible to walk this course due to layout but that's OK. I think the play would be more like 5-5 1/2 hrs when crowded due to looking for lost balls, provisional balls, and tuff greens. Lotsa forced carries and elevated greens.
They need the slope committee to re-evaluate because the degree of difficulty is greatly under estimated. On the other hand, play up one set of tees from where you are accustomed and this course is ALL YOU WANT!
Carts are equipped with an antiquated computer screen that is inaccurate and confusing, doing absolutely nothing to speed up play; in fact, I would have shot a few strokes better without it, so bring ur own laser and be prepared for target golf where distance control and accuracy is everything.
Good golf course, a bit tricky
The more I play this golf course, the more I like it. The greens were punched a couple weeks ago however they rolled decent. This course is pure target golf with lots of hazards that cross fairways. You can make a big number very quickly with one poor swing. The only hole I take issue with is number 18. Its quirky compared to the rest of the golf course. Overall, good golf course that is well maintained.
Great course
Played it on a cold and windy day and still left the course a happy man great golf course, can't wait to play it when the weather get's better.
One of the best public courses
Great layout, practice range, course conditions similar to private courses, friendly staff and helpful
The course is in great shape
The course is in excellent condition and the greens are amazing. They have a full practice facility for all parts of your game. If you decide to play back of the white tees, make sure you bring your "A" game!
Great Layout
The best thing about this course was the practice facilities. On your way to the first tee you first come to the driving range with free balls. Then you encounter the chipping area and then the putting green. So while you wait for the tee to clear - you can warm up right there close to the first tee.
I recommend this course.
The Course was in Excellent condition, Not at all crowded; Beautiful Weather, Great Conditions, and all for $38.00 Via Golf Now.. Can't beat it.

Greaet course as always
A very hard challenging layout. Only using 2 sets of tees during the winter Green (5300) and GOld (>6500) Not crowded so pace of play was good. COuld use some work to get it ready for spring (lots of fairway diviots and ball marks on the green). Bunkers were in good shape. Lots of the high grass areas were knocked down but still not a place you want your ball to land
Staff here is always top notch. No starter/marshalls or beverage cart
challenging course very nice
awesome course fairways could use a little repair great value
nice course - target golf
great challenge. requires accuracy. was in great shape for this time of year.
Ranked #3 in Delaware and rightfully so.
Great layout. Great scenery. Worth the value. Gps loaded carts. Friendly staff. Great starter, knowledgeable an explains course in detail. Very nice range, taylormade pyramid stacked balls. Big pitch, chip, putt practice area.
One of my faves in the area. After the round you can go and play some slots or horses or table games.
5 stars. Staff keep pace of play going. It had rained so a lot of holes were cart path only-my only knock.
Challenging track
Greens recently aerated but still rolled pretty well. Interesting layout - quite challenging from black tees in November. Cart GPS has good detail.
This course is challenging but fair
I play White Clay when i feel my game is right. I know I have to hit some good shots and i enjoy the challenge of this course.
