Melrose

I always enjoy playing this trak, just wish it were easier to drive to. As the crow flies, it is only 16 miles but can take upwards of an hour to battle Philly traffic.

Staff is always very friendly. Greens were in decent shape and so we're the traps, for this time of year. Plenty of elevation changes and interesting holes. It is very easy to get into some serious trouble, so it is much more important to value accuracy over distance.

Good bang for your buck

For the price, this course is a lot of fun. Creative shots, decent fairways. Greens can be runny, majority of tee boxes aren’t horrible. Besides the sand boxes (which obviously I don’t spend a lot of time in) I’m a fan

Why have a phone if you don’t answer it?

These goofballs had a tee time available for 4 with carts then the option disappeared so I tried to call them and see if I could modify my tee time but nobody wants to answer the phone and assist you, course isn’t even anything crazy nice how are you guys too busy to answer the phone? Like is everybody that works there just on the putting green putting around or do they just hate customers?

Awesome Course!

One of my favorite courses. Always in great shape and the layout makes for a challenging but playable round. I wish the clubhouse bar was open more, maybe it will be after the holiday.

Don’t waste your time

Don’t waste your time here, its more of a obstacle course. Was better back in the day but need major help, boxes are uneven and to charge $65 is a joke.
