Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 03/2023

Located in New Hanover Township, Gilbertsville Golf Club is a 27-hole layout that sprawls across the rolling hills of Montgomery County. The holes are divided into three nines called the Red, White, and Blue. The club originally opened in 1967 with only the Red and White nines. The Blue Course wasn't added until 30 years later. The large gap between when the original 18 holes were built and when the final nine was added means that the club provides a taste of both modern and traditional golf. The Red Course features small greens that are mostly flat and generous fairways that are lined with trees. The golf course is forgiving enough for high handicappers and it's even gentle enough for beginners but there are strategically placed bunkers on almost every hole. The final hole features a large lake directly in front of the green.

Cotton feilds

what a beautiful day to walk in the cotton feild, and knock the ball around. Kind of short from the white tees, you can almost drive a few greens. Nobody behind me, nor in front playing to slow. I was able to be slothful and play practice shots, tee up twice on occasion. 64 is the score to beat.

Wet!!!!

It rained heavy the night before. Standing water on every hole. Cart paths are sometimes nonexistent. Muddy, I don't usually mind cart path only, but having to walk thru ankle deep water to get to the wet fairway or tee box was too much. Need better cart paths.

Thursday Golf

Love playing here, nice course. It’s wide open and easy to find your bad shots. The sand traps are really not sand traps. They need to be attended to. Lots of rocks and a ground hog hole on the 7th hole of the blues. But overall good pace of play.

Good local track

This course is in my rotation for 2-4 times per year for my 30+ rounds per year. Always in decent condition and a fair cost!

First Round at Gilbertsville

My weekly playing partner recommended this course and I was pleasantly surprised by the entire experience - condition of the course, pace of play and friendliness of the staff. It is a bit more of a drive than a number of the other courses I play, but was entirely worth it and I look forward to returning for more rounds in the near future.

Bummer

The fairways were nice the ones that didn't have grass laying all over the place from cutting. Ninety percent of the sand traps we're loaded with water some had algae on them and the ones that didn't had no sand. For the money I won't go back.

Rename it to "gilbertsville lakes"

Every bunker was completely filled with water. Bunkers never have sand so probably an improvement.

Nice layout, brutal pace of play

arrived 25 minutes early before my tee time to get some putting in. Starter tells me I better get out before the group behind me goes. This was 10 minutes before by tee time which threw me off since hey we have tee times but okay. Played first hole and was immediately backed up behind two groups at the second tee box. Only ended up getting through 11 holes because at one point there were 7 4somes log jammed between 2 holes. Went to the office to inform them hoping they would send Ranger out to speed up play and guy just said "oh wow really" and proceeded to tell me that sometimes the course plays slow. I've played behind slow groups before but no way 7 groups should end up log jammed. Will never play the course again. A shame because course has a nice layout and was in decent shape especially for the amount of rain it had the previous night. Wouldn't play unless you're prepared for close to 6 hour rounds

Course has tough greens, some with a lot of slope

Only negative was the sand traps had little sand and thus had puddles of water in them
