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.

Nice

Not overall impressed. Glad I went in afternoon for the much cheaper rate. Not worth the morning rates

Shotmakers Course

This isn’t just a big hitters course where long hits result in a good score. Nearly every shot on this course requires accurate distance as well as accurate aim. The majority of fairways don’t simply continue from tee to green, they all have a creek or high grass to clear or lay up before. Bunkers are all strategically placed so you can’t just blast shots without good aim to avoid them.Greens were all fast and true. This late in the season, there is a good bit of divots out there and a few ball marks on the greens, but some of the weekday rates are awesome for this caliber of course. Free grass range and a couple nice chipping greens make early arrival a smart move. Only downside is cart path only for longer than most other courses after a rain. Good idea to call ahead if uncertain

Always Great

This course never disappoints. Now that we’re into the fall, it’s easy to get an afternoon tee time and move through very quickly. Played 18 by myself in just under 3 hours. If I had to complain, tee boxes are showing signs of wear, but we are late into the season with lots of play.

A must play in Delaware...

Great course and facility overall. I played mid-day on a weekday for $55 - that was a steal for this course. I can see why they can charge upwards of $100 for the weekend. Challenging layout with forced carries and doglegs. A course you need to play more than once because it's deceptive.

Great and scenic round

Tough course to play with Cart Path Only conditions. GPS in cart is useless then, and few on course markings to use. I always, Always, prefer a course with at least a 150 yard marker to the center. It's not that hard to add, even in these days of rangefinders (takes much of the "game" out of the game). Good view, lots of semi hidden doglegs, straight and somewhat easy 3's, great restaurant 19th hole

Gorgeous course, target golf

Beautiful course, huge layout, impossible to walk. Staff were all top notch, course was immaculate, greens were fast and hard to read. Carts with gps were super helpful for a first time round. Bring balls. You will lose them, there’s water and trees on most holes.

Never disappointed

Got an afternoon tee time at $50 It was well worth the almost hour trip for me. The staff was extremely friendly. The course was in pristine shape and the course beat me up but I enjoyed it. I played from the black tees and it was a shot makers dream. A lot of placement golf and the greens rolled beautifully and fast. I will probably visit again to try and improve on my score

Fun by the track!

Great course with some serious tech shots in places. Love the long drive through the woods from home 3 to 4. Very strange layout there but very relaxing ride and some time to enjoy and take in the beautiful and wooded setting on your way.

Staff lies

Had a 4 some booked and the morning of the tee time (2 1/2 hours before the tee time) one of the 4 had a family emergency and couldn’t make it. I called the course right after I heard from him (2 1/2 hours before the tee time) and they said “no problem, we will adjust it and we will see you soon” I get there and go up to the counter to check in for the tee time and they still charged me for the person because “that’s the original number of players booked in the tee time”. I’ll never play here again, rather bring my business elsewhere. Why tell me a lie over the phone, I just don’t understand it.
