Challenging and demanding course

My friend and I played with unusually warm weather The greens were fast but played fairly. This course demands good management of position and there are some blind shots. Have some balls as wayward shots can result in lost balls. Some undulating greens can cost strokes easily if played downhill. Very good time, pace of play excellent finished in little over 3.5 hrs. Staff friendly and helpful with bags, cleaned clubs before and after, good directions to range, 1st tee. GPS top of the line.

Great Challenges

Greens and tees had been aerated and sanded about 1+ week ago but was still a funtime round. Have played this course since it was first built and it is in great shape. It calls for course management on some holes and good club selection. The greens vary with undulations vs. gentle curves and require good reading skills.

Thank you for your feedback as we value your opinion. With the undulating greens and course layout, Delaware Springs proves to be a challenging day of golf time and time again. We hope you will come back and play here again soon!

Swing good and play smart

Practice good risk/reward skills and stay in the fairway. Undulating greens and challenging slopes make putting the game.

Staff, fairways good but...

but greens needed some work and some traps had water puddles and some needed new sand. Good challenging course but like someone else noted the greens and fairways had too many unrepaired new divots and ball marks. My 1st time playing but a member was in our group so had some pointers about blind shots. Watch closely when hitting off the fairway or else bring an extra sleeve or two. Played on Thursday late afternoon and got straight back to parking lot after a slooow 5 hour round. Will return to play some more as the course is challenging and the shortness brings out some different clubs to hit and also the need for good course management. Pointer: weigh the risk vs. reward carefully.

Slow ride take it easy

Friday late afternoon slow play requiring us to take it easy Fairways were excellent, tee boxes excellent, but traps were crusty and gritty and some with water puddles, and greens gave an explosion of sand and would not hold on approach shots real well but was an enjoyable day of golf. Good weather and a challenging course layout.

Course is coming around

Course was in very good shape after the heavy rainfall in May. Greens still need work, some very patchy with sand spots and weeds but May was a heavy rainfall month. Fun to play with some challenges requiring well placed shots.

Thank you for your review of the course and I'm glad you had a positive experience! May was certainly a difficult month with the rainfall and limited our ability to do some of the applications we were hoping to do as far as fertility and herbicides go. We have been able to get those out this week and we are following up with a nice round of verticutting that will have the greens in great shape! We are excited for how the course conditions continue to improve and we are also excited that we are having our grill room/snack bar as well as a full restaurant opening in the mansion this month!

Hidden Ace in the Hills

Beautiful course with a great layout that offered challenges and smart play. Modern carts with computer made club selection easy as well as showing the layout of each hole. Overcast day in the mid 50s to low 60s and 20 mph winds added to the fun and challenge. Fairways and greens were lush and green and the scenery was awesome. Staff was friendly and helpful and the price was unbelieveable for this A++ course. I drove 1hour through scenic hill country and will do it often this season.

Good play, good course

Greens and fairways were in very good shape. Due to rain the traps were wet but raked. Very few golfers out and played as a 3some in 3 1/2 hrs.

Hang on

Cart ride can be exhilarating at times with serious ups and downs. Challenging course with blind shots on some holes. For this time of year the course is in pretty good shape, Play requires some accurate ball placement with some holes with severe rough and some with OB near homes. Greens will sharpen skills to a fine edge as they are very undulating and can be quite fast.

This course was fun and challenging.

For for the time of year the course was in good condition-tees, fairways, sand traps, greens. Very nice practice putting green and ample driving range. Very scenic course. Good mix of challenges, elevated tees, doglegs, sand traps, trees, etc. that call for good shot making, course management and putting skill.

Challenging holes if not familiar

Super golf course and has some challenges like the narrow creek that slides across the fairway in front of the 18th green. With a strong drive on this par 5 you can lay up carefully or take the challenge and go for it. It's possible to clear the creek and/or bounce over. #7 par 5 is a blind shot to green with some serious up and down hills that challenge being in good position. This time of year and the course is in very good shape tee to green.
