Broad Run Golfer's Club
About
Designed by Rees Jones, Broad Run Golfer's Club boasts one of the best layouts in the area. The course sprawls across over 370 acres of rolling hills countryside. The dramatic elevations are definitely not something you would expect from a golf course that is conveniently situated so close to downtown Philadelphia. The elevated tees feel as though they're in the clouds and mature trees frame most of the holes. There are hazards lurking throughout the golf course including swampy marshlands and tall, dense grasses that are all just waiting to swallow errant shots. It is a challenging layout no doubt but it is made more player friendly with generous fairways and Jones was also light on the bunkering. One of the most difficult and scenic holes is the par-5 15th. This hole plays uphill, featuring a blind tee shot to a plateau green surrounded by trees.

Picturesque Fall Golf
We played a round yesterday in beautiful fall sunshine. Course was very well maintained compared to most other local courses. Rolling hills and amazing undulation on 75% of the holes. This place is unique, over 18 holes only 2 fairways run next too each other but you wouldn't know. This give each hole an individual personality. I could play this course for decades and never get bored. Nice that the course is split from front and back 9, 10min turnarounds welcomes a break and a snack. Love this place - highly recommended.
Beautiful challenge
A beautiful course that really takes advantage of the landscape and terrain throughout. Really unique holes and design, a lot of fun. You get a great mix of challenging par 3s and long par 5s with some fun short par 3s, a driveable par 4, and attackable par 5s. Definitely breaks out of the cookie cutter mold that you see at a lot of other southeast PA public courses. The major downside is that it's really pricey - with the golf "boom" going strong, they are clearly taking advantage of what they can charge the market. Would definitely recommend that everyone check it out at least once, it's at least worth playing once or twice a year, even at the current prices.
Beautiful Chester County
Course is gorgeous, greens were perfect but fast!
Excellent Public Course
Broad Run architecture was excellent. Some truly amazing views and elevation changes. Well worth the money we spent.
Great views and holes !
Course is fabulous and for the. HotDeal price of $50 it was fantastic
Lovely
Very picturesque, very well maintained with friendly staff. A few holes where you can’t see the landing area but overall very receptive to good shots. Look forward to playing here again.
Best views and layout around.
Everything was good. Some of the greens were scuffed Few tracker marks around the greens. But you can’t beat $60 with a cart. Bartender was great. Full bar open is always a plus.
Incredibly rude ranger
The course is great but the ranger ruins the round. Typical Saturday pace, short wait on almost all the tee boxes, but for some reason the ranger felt the need to scold us multiple times about pace of play seemingly unaware that the whole course was moving at the same pace. I guess he thought we should be hitting into the group ahead of us. Rest of the staff was great and most of them confirmed they’re aware of the problem with the ranger and have received multiple complaints. No idea why they haven’t fixed the problem if they’re aware of it, but definitely can’t recommend the course until it’s solved.
Magnificent Course
Very hard to beat the overall look and feel of this challenging course since it meanders through acres of virgin land. I think the course is built on something like 300 acres. I can't say enough about the course architecture. The holes for the most part spread out in front of you from the tee boxes so you can plan your attack. Views from many tee boxes are spectacular. Generally plenty of rom to drive but lots of trouble if you can't stay within the wide fairways they give you
The hole designs are awesome and varied. The fairways and tee boxes are first rate. The greens were not in great shape - nothing severe but the greens are not what you would expect on a course with such pristine tee boxes and fairways.
This is an expensive course compared to many others, but if you are a fan of great golf course design, this is a must play.
Greens Need Some Work
Overall the course was in decent shspe, but the most greens were beat up. Pace of play was slow, even with a ranger cruising around.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
Beautiful course. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to play here again.

Tom Morgan and crew set the benchmark very high with this course. always in excellent condition, everyone there is super friendly, pace is excellent.
