I had read the recent reviews and decided to take a chance on the course to see for myself. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the course was. It was nice to see a public golf course that still has so many bunkers that are well-maintained. The greens were in very good condition, as well.

I will return to play it again.

First time playing this track and it was just average. None of the holes were memorable. Very flat terrain. Some water holes. Like I say, nothing remarkable or memorable. The greens were surprisingly in very nice shape, albeit 100% frozen as it is winter here in the Philadelphia area.

Third time playing this track. Greens were the worst part. Hairy and slow and covered with tree debris. Still showing signs of last October's aeration. Course layout is unique and challenging. Drove almost an hour because it was an excellent price. Cart path only because it is Winter and we had a lot of rain 3 days earlier.

This course should be shut down. Worst conditions I have ever experienced in more than 400 rounds of golf which includes playing courses (Loch Nairn, FDR and Karakung) that were planning on closing at the end of their respective seasons.

Other than the greens on numbers 11 and 12, the rest of them were total disasters. They literally dumped piles of sand on number 4's "green" and then used hand rakes in a feeble attempt to spread it around the muddy, weed-infested, diseased greens, while leaving several clumps/mounds of sand in several areas. Horrific!

You could easily lose your golf balls even if you were in the middle of the fairway because the grass was so high. No differentiation between the roughs and the fairways. In fact on several fringes of the greens, the grass was 8 to 10 inches tall. See my pictures and videos down below.

It is sad to see a fun tract be totally decimated. I will give it at least a full year or more before going back. However, I will monitor these reviews before wasting my time and money on such DEPLORABLE conditions.

Brand new beautiful gas-powered carts.

Course was in wonderful condition for this time of year.

Wow! I play this course quite often and yesterday's conditions were spectacular. They redid all their bunkers this past Winter, including rebuilding the drainage systems under each of them. Such a pleasure to have NICE sand traps at a PUBLIC golf course.
The greens were in great shape and the way they have cut the fairways is really nice too, in that they have the fairway, then a "first cut" and then the taller rough. Similar to how nicer clubs have greens, then the fringe and then the apron and then the fairway. It is a very nice touch!

Keep up the great work, guys. It is much appreciated!

In previous years, the one saving grace for this course were the quality of their greens. Unfortunately the vast majority of their greens are severely diseased and bumpy right now and getting worse.

Or bring your own personal battery-operated leaf blower? Seriously, most greens were covered with twigs and other tree-generated debris making it tough to make a putt. Fairways had lots of bare spots for this time of year.There were rows of hay clumps from lawn clippings. .I like the course and I think the staff are wonderful, but conditions were under-whelming yesterday.

Their Course Superintendent and his crew have done a TREMENDOUS job of improving the course conditions. This Winter they totally re-did the majority of their sand traps and have done a marvelous job of it. Kudos to them!

You owe it to yourself to play here and enjoy a nice round of golf.

They always do a fine job of maintaining the course. I interacted with four different employees and truly felt welcomed and appreciated. They are to be commended!!

I drove 55 miles each way to play this course and it was well worth it.

Shannondell is to be commended for improving several of their sand traps, literally from the ground up. They are putting in drainage lines under the traps. The finished product is resulting in some wonderfully refurbished traps.

Trak has some interesting holes but a lot of the greens are ridiculously sloped and extremely fast. I love undulating greens but some of their greens are just way too steep and punishing. Takes away from being able to enjoy your round. Shot an 86 (par is 70) but I had 43 putts. I normally average 34 to 36 putts a round.

The Winter off-season has ended and so you can now obtain the use of an electric cart. The day I was there, it was still "cart path only".

Three greens were closed (3,4 & 7). It was nice to see them working hard on refurbishing so many of the sand traps. The ones that had been completed were in EXCELLENT condition! Kudos to their Groundskeepers.

Don't know how long they are going to keep their low prices, but for now, it is one of the best deals out there.Great value for your money!

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.

First time playing this trak and I was disappointed. I know it is the beginning of March but the fairways were consistently terrible. Constantly hitting off hard-pan lies both in the fairways and just off of them.

Greens were in decent shape for this time of year, but some were ridiculously STEEP. for where they placed the pins.

Had a very enjoyable round even if I did not score as well as I normally do on this course. Temps were in the mid 60's even though it was the middle of February. The course was crowded but the pace of play was excellent. They really do a great job of maintaining the course and the staff is consistently friendly It was well worth the one-hour drive to play.
