Early spring
As expected the course is short on warm weather and staff. The greens are expected for spring.The staff and starter are very personable and friendly.
Well worth a visit

Course in great shape for early season
Our twosome played the course in about three hours and 45 minutes. The fairways were in good shape and the deep rough had been trimmed. Although the greens had been recently fertilized, I did not find that an impediment to putting. Currently the sand traps were in good shape with adequate sand. We experienced an enjoyable day of golfing.

Good course when you need to knock the rust off.
I've played Delcastle a million times and I always find it fun. It's not difficult and it's usually in the average price range for a course in the area. Not much of a pro shop, but the bar is always accessible. Overall a good course, but not great. Good for when you need to get back in the swing of things.

Pace of play was somewhat slow, but we made it through the round. Staff couldn't have been nicer. All in all, Delcastle is a very nice course that I will definitely plan to hit again when it warms up in the spring.
