Good value

I’ve played Richland many times. Staff has always been friendly. I think it’s a very good test of Golf. The greens are usually fast the fairways and rough in good shapethe bunkers and the cart paths need work. All in all good bang for the buck. I will continue to play here and support the course.

Not Worth It

Paid $80 for round on a Saturday. Course was in terrible shape . Dandelions higher than your ankles, Most traps had no sand. Not much difference between fairway and rough. Pace of play was awful. Had a “4 some” in front of us , 2 golfers and 2 passengers with a baby. Finally just passed them since they wouldnt let us play through. What happened to rangers on the course?? Will not return.

Tour Quality Greens!

The GREENS! Tour quality….fast, smooth, compact. The Boss Ed asked me, how would you know they’re tour quality. Have you played on the tour? Well I’ve played Pebble Beach, Spanish Bay, Spyglass, TPC Avenel, TPC Myrtle. And your greens were as good or even better. - JOHN

Fun Course with some nice challenges

This is a great course with some great hole layouts offering some nice challenges (mostly around length and challenging greens).

This course may seem a bit "out there" for a location from some users, but worth the trip.

Bunkers need some work. They need water stations on the course. They need ball washers on every hole. They don't have any.

Greens are fast, true rolls and challenging.

Honor Tee Times

We had a 4:00 tee time and didn't tee off until 4:20 because there was no one monitoring tee times. I've played here many times and this is the first time experiencing anything like that, but please do better.

Cart Path Only

Some holes were a slight bit wet, the Cart Path Only requirement was a catastrophe! Many of the cart paths are very deteriorated, so we utilized the rough on about half the holes. The greens were very good for this time of the year, but the course (and especially the cart paths) need some attention.

Richland = Good but could be much better

Played 18 today in 5 hours today, waiting after every shot, each hole. We were glad to be out so not concerned being cart path only; however, the cart path on the entire course is horrible. Pot holes, or huge gaps making it bumpy to say the least. The fairways were nice, bunkers have always been hit or miss here regardless the season, some are always unplayable and oddly enough others look great. The greens were phenomenal and fast, by far the best aspect all day. I would be back again for sure but it’s kinda sad they after years of neglect they can’t repave the cart path. They do quite well for themselves I’m sure.

The sand traps need a lot of work , so we just took a free drop. I guess that has a lot to do with the time of year.

Winter Golf

When the Price is right it is a great value, Greens are fast. Carts are rough. Range is rough. Bunkers are surprisingly good. The inside is rough.

Good value. Need to play again to score better

The par 3s are tough from the blue tees but the par 5s are

Short and make up for it.

A couple of holes once would be easier knowing where to hit your tee shot. Luckily I played with some great guys who helped me navigate some of the blind tee shots

Great value and would definitely play again

Horrible pace of play

I teed t off at 12 had to give up playing by hole 8. When I got to the tee box, there was a group on the tee box waiting to hit, a group in the fairway waiting to hit and a group just getting to the green. At this point, it was two hours and 10 minutes. It would’ve been about two hours and 45 minutes for pace of play. When I brought this to the clubhouse staff, I made it clear. I did not want a rain check or refund but to advise them of this and they stated they just could not afford a Ranger and a group in front wasn’t at that piece of play so we couldn’t have been. Even after explaining there were four groups on one hole and would’ve taken us another 30 minutes to have completed the hole.. staff was not friendly nor competent to resolve the issue. So do not play here unless you want a six hour round of golf.

The perfect local golf escape

This place is a little hidden gem in Middletown, MD. The course itself is in great condition, and the staff couldn't be friendlier. What really sets it apart, though, is how quiet and relaxed it is. Sure, it's pretty basic - don't expect any of those fancy amenities - but if you're looking for a peaceful round away from the crowds, this is the spot.
