Ed Oliver Golf Club

If you've played this course over the years, you know how badly conditions would deteriorate this time of year after a busy and hot summer. Well, not anymore. The course is in fantastic shape, especially the greens. The tee boxes could use some more tlc but they're still very playable - people who complain are just coming up with excuses for a bad round - or they're comparing it to a premier public course or private country club experience, which is ludicrous. If Ed Oliver had the budget and manpower I'm sure the entire course would be picture perfect, but you can't beat the value for the money here. I play a lot of the area courses (DE, PA, and NJ) and this place rates highly on my list as the best value for the money.

Great greens. Great fairways. Very clean wonderful course

Played Sunday afternoon. Never had to wait. Tee boxes and fairways in rough shape, let’s of weeds and brown patches. Greens were good, however they had just been punched. Price was discounted so it was still good value.

Played a Sunday late morning, it was busy, starter was there but not doing a whole lot to spread groups out. We waited to tee off on every single hole until we had enough at 10 and played the front 9... again. It was over 2.5hrs through the front (the first time) waiting to take every shot. Second time through without the clowns infront of us we made it through in 90min. Course was nice, greens were in super shape for end of August and super fast. Aside from the pace and people crossing every which way over the fairways hitting shots left and right it was a pretty fun round. Much better on our second (back 9) run through the front 9 when no one else was really out there.

Haven’t played this course since April(great conditions all around). With the heat waves we’ve had this summer the fairways were burnt and patchy. The tee boxes were just ok. Where the course shined was the greens. For the most part they were soft and very responsive with little to no wear or burnt areas. Looking forward to playing again in the fall when the fairways hopefully heal a little bit.

The course was in pretty good shape. The greens were very nice. There were some dried out spots but it has been blazing hot recently. Great value. Wide open course. Very fun round.

Greens were a pleasant SUPRISE. Haven’t played in years. Before renovations. Much more open. They added some water, took out some water, trees, a building. Cart paths were upgraded. I like what is done. Course still a bit rough in a fair amount of spots.3.5 stars. If it’s been a while for you at Porkeys, stop in and see the changes. And the greens will NOT dissapy.

Loved this course and staff was very understanding. I added two people about two hours before tee time and there was no issues at all. Fairways were in awesome condition aside from a few spots, which as a beginner golfer I’ve dealt with at every course I’ve played. Putting greens were a bit challenging but in great condition. Recommend this course for any type of golfer.

Ed Oliver is in really good shape. The staff is very professional and easy to get onto the course to start your round. The fairways overall are in nice shape but the greens is probably why I’m writing the review, they are really really nice! The ball rolled true and they have nice speed to them and were very consistent throughout the holes. Overall it was a really great experience on a nice golf course.

Will is the man he needs a promotion but other than that the course was in great shape and very fun to play! Greens are in very nice condition and the rough wasn’t too high for you to lose your ball if you hit bad drive like I do sometimes. 8/10 recommend this course.

Got there early and out as soon as we paid. The course is in better shape than the last time we played. Still could use more sand in the dirt filled bunkers. Some had sand but water not draining properly makes attempting to make it out without picking out of the standing water slow. Came across a few bands of draining water in various fairways.

All in all had it not recently rained, I would be scoring them higher.
