Ed Oliver Golf Club

Good golf course for intermediate golfers as myself. Course was in good shape even with the lack of rain and the staff were helpful and friendly. Definitely would return.

I played this course about 7-8 years ago before it was bought out by Billy Casper Golf and the course was in need of a lot of repairs. I was hesitant on playing today but was very surprised how the course has been improved. A lot of work has been done, fairways were nice, had nice first and second cuts of rough. Sand traps were a little dry but not dirt like the first time. Tee boxes were in nice shape, all have grass and no dry dead spots. Greens were nice and challenging.

Overall I was impressed and will play again.

Greens were in great shape, sand traps no sand dirt.
Pace af play was slow, lot of golfers on the course
Decided to quit after 9 holes.
Very tight course with paralell fairways.
Nice course and reasonably priced.

The course was in the best shape I've seen in years, especially the greens. They were in terrific shape.
"Porky's" has subtle difficulty. The management seems to be working on improving the conditions, which has a lot of work to be done. Still, I enjoy playing here, and with a golfnow hot deal of $18, I couldn't pass it up. I look forward to playing there again.

People were very nice. Weather was not good. Course condition is fair at best.

This course has had its ups and downs, and the conditions certainly reflect that. Greens in decent shape; fairways and tee boxes not so much. Excellent restaurant onsite for post round meals! Overall a good experience can be found here with nice views of Wilmington.

We had an excellent first visit to the Ed Oliver Course. It's an old course but well kept and perhaps the nicest staff (especially Dennis in the Pro Shop) that we've experienced. Thank you!

This course was a very nice course. Greens were in great shape. The fairways were in ok shape. Staff is helpful and nice. Played a round in a twosome in just over 3 hours

Need a ranger on course...some golfers pace of play really slow.

Nice course a lot better since I played it six years ago

Good course for beginners only. No challenge for a intermediate player . You need 4 clubs to play this including putter. You can see every flag from the tee. Fairways hard as your head. . Greens fair. Would only play again if 20 dollars or under for 18 with cart .

you can always turn the ball over in a bad spot of fairway but there's no relief for bad greens. Excellent greens make this course. Play early pace of play slows later in the day

When I hit get directions the address was incorrect pulling from this field.

I went eye with my father on Father's day, so they were inevitably backed up. Regardless, we were able to hit a few practice balls for free while we were waiting. The course itself is pretty well maintained. The fairways were fairly narrow, so we hit into the neighboring fairway a couple of times. The greens were fast, and moderately difficult. Overall, this course was enjoyable.

Ed Oliver's is a wondeful course. Hidden from the beaten track, but just outside of the city of Wilmington, it's located on the edge of some very high priced property. I warmed up on a very nice, well maintained, REAL GRASS driving range. It has mats, but they were not in use. Next to the range is a very nice practice putting green with about 9 holes to shoot at for various rolls and distances. All the holes on the course present different challenges that will keep you on your toes. Although it has only one par 5, the other par 4's are long and very challenging for a good golfer. If you stray from the fairway trees or havy rough will penalize you making a recovery shot difficult at best. The pace of play was excellent at 11:30am. and I had no hold ups the entire morning. The Tee box's do show some broken tee's, but they were level and well grassed. The fairways, all of them do have some challenges. They were groomed well with nice short grass to make nice tight lie shots, but they do tend to have dips in them, I guess for water run off. This can make standing and addressing the ball a problem with some shots. The greens a small and very challenging. You must have an accurate shot on the flag or you will end up in some serious thick rough grass surrounding the greens. Making PAR is lucky if you end up in this stuff even if your 5 foot from the fringe of the green! Overall, it is a very enjoyable course to play. The other golfers were friendly and showed good golf manners too. The I had lunch in the club house and had a very relaxed lunch. I sat outside at tables under cover enjoying the other golfers Teeing off on the #1 and #10 holes while taking in the fine weather today. I will go back again because this hidden jewel is fun and a challenge too!

Played Ed Oliver's for the first time in years. I was greeted by a cart attendent as soon as I arrived and he helped get my bags and sent me to the shop. The pro was great! When I told him it was my first time in a while, he recalled the cart attendent I got a 1 on 1 tour of the property.
Greens were much better than I remembered them being - quick, true, and receptive. Excellent greens compared to much more expensive courses in the area. The fairways were mostly good, with a few spots that clearly took the winter hard.
I was paired with a two-some and we finished our round in just under 4 hours. Great experience overall. I'll be back

They've made improvements in recent years, the course is just so beat up. The fairways are really bad. The staff is great and it's really cheap so that's nice! I'll be back to work on my game

As incredible as it sounds a pack of smokes would have cost more than a round of golf using golf now on Easter Sunday afternoon. Three of us got out for less than $20 total. As for the course itself there are enough interesting holes to make it worth the trip. Nothing wrong with the tees or greens and the staff didn't blink when they rung me up and had to give me 8 bucks back from the 20 I gave them, we all had a good laugh. What a country!

Pace of play was so bad they gave me a refund. 'Nough said

Ed Oliver is a fun place to play a relaxed game of golf. The course is not the most dificult one you will ever see, and at times it is not in the best of condition, but for the price it is a great bargain and fun to play.
