Course Highlights
Edgewater's hilly, secluded layout consistently earns top marks for its challenging elevation changes and excellent course conditions. Exceptionally welcoming staff and strong value make this a course worth the drive.

Edgewater Golf Club has a peaceful setting tucked away in Lancaster. The course feels completely secluded with a layout that tumbles across rolling hills covered with a blanket of matures trees. The terrain is as scenic as it is challenging, providing the layout with dramatic elevation changes and plenty of water. In addition to the natural hazards, there are numerous strategically placed bunkers lurking along the greensides. An abundance of wildlife also calls the golf course home, so don't be surprised if you see deer or turkeys roaming the course. One of Edgewater Golf Club's most memorable holes is the par-4 seventh. This tricky hole is a downhill dogleg left that forces you to drive right-center of the fairway, followed by a tough approach to a green that sits on the bank above Fishing Lake Creek.

Great Course!

Definitely a diamond in the rough, 5 stars across if it weren’t for the construction on the course, and beautiful clubhouse. Some areas were muddier than I would expect if improvements were not underway. So, if your reading this, it’s a don’t miss course!

Great Course - Flat Tire

The course is fun with some challenging holes especially the longer par 3s. The only problem we had was a flare tire on the golf cart.

Love the course

I love the layout of this golf course. The first hole is driveable when the conditions are dry otherwise with a good drive it’s a pitch shot. Pin placements are challenging depending on where they are with the contour of the green. Coming off of winter the fairways weren’t as pristine as they are in the summer months. Once the new clubhouse opens this will be an excellent choice to enjoy a day at the golf course. I highly recommend this course.

Appears all money is going into facilities, and nothing into course.

Nearly every tee box is a mud box with very little grass.

Recently aerated, but after 3 weeks, putting is watching your ball bounce all over the green.

The new clubhouse facilities and driving range look amazing, but the golf course looks atrocious. I’ve played several courses around town, so the winter time excuse is old.

Beautiful course

This is our second time playing this course. It is one of the better courses we have played in the area. It plays long with plenty of challenges. I would have rated it higher for conditions had it not just been aerated but the rest of the course is in good shape for March. We are looking forward to playing it later in the spring when the grass is lush. It’s a little far for us, otherwise it would be on our regular schedule.

Very Disappointing

Got to the first green only to discover they had been plugged and sanded so putting was irrelevant for the entire round. There should be info given before you book the tee time online. I get it is necessary for maintenance but there were other options on a Friday we could have chosen without driving an hour and being disappointed. I think this is more on Golfnow than on Edgewater but maybe both. Either way, disappointing.

Fun on the fairways

Edgewater is a fun course with a challenging but fair layout. I live about 50 minutes away, but it is worth the drive.

Good Layout

We enjoy playing this course for a change of pace from our normal courses. Considering the weather, the course was in good shape. Greens rolled true and fairways were fine to hit off. Staff was very accommodating and great to work with, This will be interesting to see when the clubhouse is completed, it is looking good right now.

Great course to play on a cold day

Cold day and had an early teetime.

Frost delay was 45'. Also, range and putting green were closed due to the frost delay.

Once we got started, it was a great day. Pace of play was great as there was no one behind us. Course is in great shape other than some water spots in some areas. Greens are in fantastic shape.

Will definitely come back.
