Ed Oliver Golf Club

Unfortunately Delaware refuses to put money into one of its historic Courses. Fairways are very inconsistent. Greens are extremely slow. This course deserves so much better. This is a fun course but the conditions are very poor. I don’t want to review it so badly but it’s the right thing to do.

Green were in amazing shape. Tee boxes roughed up. Sand traps need some attention. Great value. Not to difficult but you need to keep the ball in the tight fairways. Will most certainly go back.

This course was in okay shape. It has been extremely hot over the last 2 weeks so everything was dried out which made puts very fast and fairway shots hit the ground and bounce all over the place.

The course has improved in maintenance over the past couple years I’ve been playing it. Greens a lot better. Some tee boxes are pretty beat. Some of the tee shots are pretty difficult. Bunkers are basically hard dirt but are deep so kind of unreasonable. 52$ seems steep. Also, going to be 6 hours to play on a weekend.

Everything is great, I’m glad to see they invested into new golf carts this year !

Very well maintained, only issue is their “sand” bunkers. Other than that I always have a good time golfing here.

I appreciate all golf courses because they are far & few in between. Especially at a 50$ avg.

Ed Oliver, better known as Porky’s is in its best condition ever and continues to improve. Thanks to Indigo Sport’s management, the efforts of a dedicated friendly staff and the continuous hard work of groundskeeper and crew the course is lush green and in great shape. The greens are manicured, moderately fast, especially #16, the fairways are groomed and maintained, drainage problems have been addressed. They just received new golf carts and the bunkers are in line for a makeover. It is a municipal course and it is humming. Quite often they have 280 players booked on a weekday. The starters efficiently keep the place moving along and rangers occasionally nudge the slower ones to keep pace or they distribute water. Plus, there is a catering cart making the rounds. Well done!

Becky Dangler, the resident pro must be very good because she seems to be always fully booked with lessons and clinics. The only negative is the facilities’ carpeting which is awful and gives the place a bad impression. It was just changed two years ago, but the worse possible selection was made by the interior decorating team and they should be held accountable for it.

The fairway is narrow and has slopes. It is still a little difficult to hit ball on the fairway, red tee is a little long, but it is challenging, and it is not easy to play well. The view from 16 to 18 holes is better than that of other holes. Value for money.
