First off this course is more than just about golf for the young men at the Glen Mills School. The…read moreGlen Mills School was the nation's first reform school for boys. The course is a recent addition as a means to both raise revenue and teach job skills to the students in golf course management and maintenance. Some of the students have moved on to college programs in golf course management. The boys here learn not just job skills but life skills. At $105 for a Sunday tee time with cart and range balls, this was the most expensive round of golf I have ever played but this was also the hardest and best kept course that I have ever played. It was well worth it. The greens were fast and rolled true. They were extremely difficult which put a premium on an accurate approach shot. The fairways are tight and require accurate tee shots. All in all a great experience!

Some very good holes and some really poor ones. Several need redesign to be made more playable. They raised their prices last year. Definitely not worth $100. Wyncote nearby is much better, less expensive with an expansive riving range and a shot game area. Worth the ride.

The short game practice area served its purpose and with a little TLC could really help this club stand out. The driving range uses astro turf for hitting areas. Just find if you want to dial in your drive but don't expect much honest feedback for any woods or iron shots off the deck. Staff was tremendous! Restaurant, bar, and pro shop were extensions of the team that staff them - well stocked and go the extra mile. Give this place a try. You'll have a great time!

Perfect for families, young children, and beginners…read more Wife and I were looking for a place that allowed our 2.5 year old to ride along with us. This place was not only perfect, it's almost made for families. First, the staff that I met there were maybe the NICEST golf course attendees that I've ever met. Went out of his way to explain every little detail of the course. Made us feel comfortable with bringing our child - it didn't feel like an inconvenience for them, more like they WELCOMED it. This meant so much to us. Second, it's a perfect place for families and beginners. No tee times needed, 12 holes (shorter round) with 10 of them being par 3s. Most people walked. We didn't for obvious reasons and was thankful that they had carts. Definitely something we'll come back to as the children get older!

Also, the quaint feel of the facility gives a certain feel that makes an emotional event even warmer. Con: None. Bottom Line: Delawarians, give this place a look-over for your upcoming nuptials!

I've been searching for a chocolate chip cookie this good forever, and THIS IS IT. The staff was just as amazing. Caven explained everything to us and was super helpful, and the bartender was wonderful. He helped me figure out exactly what to order based on what I was looking for and nailed it. The entire place is immaculate, super clean, really nice, and such a fun atmosphere. Perfect place to hit some balls, eat some seriously good food, have some drinks, and hang out with friends. But seriously... get the chocolate chip cookie.

That is typically fine, however I had to call and cancel my time due to a conflict me and my friends had. I called well over 48 hours in advance to cancel (policy is 24), and even got a cancelation confirmation number. It has been two months now and I still have not gotten a refund on my card and I have talked to them once in person and two times on the phone about this with nothing getting done. I was even told to email Brandon Karpinski who is "the head of golf" about this and that he would take care of it and he never even had the curtesy to email me back. This course and service is an absolute joke and no one should give these people a dime of their money. Additionally, I would suggest not charging people up front if your refund policy is this abysmal.

There are a lot of water hazards/foliage that you have to carry or waste a shot laying up, if you don't have the muscle. Greens are extremely fast and everything was well maintained. I imagine being a member here is pretty cool, as the mens locker room was really nice. Steam room, sauna, showers, some nice swanky lockers like you'd see at Augusta. The club house and pro shop were nice too, although the young lady that works in the pro shop didn't even say hello to me; just "do you have a tee time?" Not even a smile. meh. The cart attendants were friendly and eager to please (considering they receive tips), but they did make us open our coolers and told us we couldn't bring our outside alcohol on. (Not a big deal, we didn't know the course policy.) There are two knocks on White Clay Creek: 1) the same knock that affects about 90% of the golf courses out there....it's expensive. A mid morning tee time will run you over $100. We STARTED at 4pm, and it was $50 a person. It's a nice course, but sheesh. And 2) the REAL knock on WCC, IT IS HUGE! The course is friggin enormous. You will literally ride for like 3-4 minutes in-between holes. That's RIDE on the cart. I can even begin to imagine what you have to do if you're walking this monstrosity. It was either between holes 2 and 3, or 3 and 4 where it was like The Oregon Trail of a trek through the woods. A few holes, you would tee off, then have to drive BACK the way you came, go over a bridge, under a tunnel etc, to get to your next shot. We were cart path only too, so our round took FOREVER. Realizing we were losing daylight, we just played best ball on the entire back 9, and our round STILL took over 5 hours. Another side effect of the course being so big is that because there is so much distance/time between shots, you lose a TON of balls here. We lost SO many balls on shots that were literally straight down the fairway, and may have rolled into the second cut or over a hill or something. I get losing balls on slices and shanks, but it was ridiculous. The carts were very nice, with GPS, and digital score cards, and the cart girl had a decent selection with OKAY prices ($7 a beer....meh). A nice course, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go back. It's the kind of place that I've love to be a member of, but to just play a round of golf, there are better, and cheaper options.
