Golden Oaks Golf Club in Fleetwood, Pa. is considered one of Berks County's finest courses with a four-star rating from Golf Digest, which also named it as one of the top "Places to Play." It was voted the "Best Public Course" by readers of Berks County Magazine. Designed by local architect Jim Blaukovitch, the golf course has a classic design that appeals to players of all skill levels. The course has wide, inviting fairways but there are also some challenges provided by the rolling terrain, featuring elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Be prepared for a variety of uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies. Trees line Golden Oaks Golf Club's fairways and strategically placed bunkers protect the greensides. The golf course has some tricky holes but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Lifetime best score, great 19th hole

Shot my best ever round of 77 here first time playing. Course in great shape, undulating layout. Soft accessible greens. Fantastic halfway hut and 19th hole. Pace could’ve been a little better we got done in 4.5 hours. Will definitely come back.

Great golf course

Golden Oaks is a great golf course with country club conditions. Bent grass fairways and greens are something rare in public courses and it is so well maintained. The layout and routing of the holes is terrific.
From the bag drop to the pro shop the staff was very friendly and helpful. Some of us drove over an hour to play here but it is worth it and we’ll do it again.

Golden Oaks

Played as 3some on a beautiful summer weekday afternoon and the course was great. Everything ( tees, fairways, greens, and traps ) was in in great shape with only a few exceptions. Greens were VERY fast. but true. We finished in 3 1/2 hours. Great value, worth the trip.

What a lazy golfers all around the courses.

Every single hole I had to wait for hitting a ball. At least 5 minutes to wait for our turn to play each hole.
I remembered 11 & 12th hole there were four groups waiting to turn their shot. That was extremely testing my endurance. I don’t know why people have given them more than 4 stars. I’m living near NYC and travel for playing golf at the better course which shows more than 4 stars estimated.
Golf course was average shaping not too good for scenic view or wonderful management of courses. It’s just fair to play. Greens were maintained really well and very fast.
All I can say this golf course would be 3.8 or 3.9 stars enough.
I had driven to this course 2hours and half from City of NY.
I regret to choice this golf course by ratio of stars.
No rangers to control slow players and No impressed scenic view all over the golf courses.

Beautiful Public Course

I've played here about a half-dozen times and I'm always impressed with the course. It's simply one of the most beautiful public courses I've ever seen. It's well-maintained, challenging, and a lot of fun.
For the most part, the staff is extremely friendly. I've only ever run into one person who was not, and he was in the pro shop. But 99% of the time EVERYONE there is super friendly and they make it great.
I always recommend this course to other people, even though I don't live very close. It's worth the long drive for me to play at Golden Oaks.

Great value for the money.

Play here Father's day weekend . First time here really enjoyed the round despite the 25 to 35 mph wind gust the was Throughout the whole round. For 59 bucks on a Saturday 18 holes and a bucket of balls included in the price I'm in . The only flaw I found here were the bunckers need sand also a lot of stones a rocks were in there to but all said a very nice layout I will be back there when I'm back in the area.

Hidden Gem

I played here yesterday as part of a group that plays various courses in the area. While a little further out from the Philadelphia area, this course was certainly worth the extra 20 minutes drive. A cart attendant loaded my bags onto a cart just like a private course. The staff was friendly and welcoming.

The tea boxes were in very good shape, the fairways were well groomed and the greens, the tricky were in excellent shape. There is a fair variety of bunkers and water hazards. There is an excellent layout overall. I also found this to be an exceptional value, as I believe this was formally a private course and it shows. There is a very nice restaurant with a decent menu with a balcony overlooking the 18th green. Overall an excellent experience. I would definitely return and recommend this to anyone in the area seeking challenging golf At a reasonable price.
