Broad Run Golfers Club

This course is gorgeous. I played 2 weeks before christmas on a 60 degree day after it rained the day before and the course played perfectly. The drainage was very good and the course played dry. In the winter they do a huge shot gun start for the first tee time which helps get out as many people as they would if they opened at 8:00am but at 10:00am to avoid frost. The course is tough but fun. Not as tough as glenn mills but it does have some very fun holes to play. The clubhouse is gorgeous from the inside and out. The play was fast we finished a full 18 with 3 people in under 4 hours while behind the shot gun. The marshall was active on the course to ensure this. Make sure after a round you try the wings! They are to die for!

This is a beautiful course, just as nice as Glen Mills based off my experiences at both. The views are fantastic; there’s something to look at on every hole. The course was in great condition considering it was late November. I will be coming back to play here again, it was a lot of fun to play.

I normally don’t write reviews unless there is something that stands out of the ordinary. In this case, Broad Run the golf course is wonderfully maintained. Beautiful greens, nice and fast, that rolled true and held nicely helped lessen the annoyance of an extremely slow and poorly managed round and less than courteous employees. The only employee that was very good was the starter. A very nice and pleasant man, he was. The rest of the people we encountered… not so much.
One of my biggest annoyances is when courses pair groups. If I wanted to play with strangers I would arrange that on my own. When I booked the tee time online, I specifically looked to see if they had a grouping policy and I either missed it or it is not specified on the website. It should be. At any rate when we arrived at the bag drop and were TOLD, not asked, TOLD that we were being paired I immediately was irritated. Then when I expressed my displeasure with the employee in the pro shop and asked not tot be paired with another twosome, I was told in a cavalier manner «anyone who plays golf knows that groups will be paired. We are a business…» Blah, Blah, Blah.
I’m sorry, I didn’t realize that it is my concern to worry about the business of Broad Run. I am there to golf and I am a paying customer. I have been playing golf for over 40 years and have played many a twosome without being paired with another group at similar and better courses. I guess I don’t have enough experience according to the pro shop attendant.
So after we had to just swallow that we were to be paired and after we were herded to the first tee, like we were holding things up… we got the pleasure of seeing that there were 3 groups on the first hole, stacked up nicely as our tee time was delayed by about 15 or 20 minutes. Yes that’s right.
We were on a schedule and when I planned the outing I gave us about 4 hours and 45 min for the round. (which is insane in itself). Well, that wasn’t enough. We had to leave on the 16^th tee. Yep it took about 4.5 hours to get to the 16^th tee. Even though we saw what looked like a ranger driving around aimlessly with a scowl on his face a couple of times, he did nothing.
So as we were driving back to the clubhouse we got to see the group on 17 green that obviously was the problem. After passing them we got the par 5, 18^th. To my disbelief there wasn’t even one group on the entire hole! What is the rangers job? To drive around? Get the course moving!
I think I have ranted enough. Great course but poorly managed at least from my perspective. I think we should get a rebate considering I only was able to play 83% of my round. Hopefully, this was an anomaly but it will be a while before I return there or recommend the course to others.

Played a round here and thought the course was in pretty good condition. The Twilight rate could have been a little cheaper as we weren’t able to get 18 in due to very slow play ahead of us. This worst part of my experience at Broad Run was losing my brand new pair of Oakley’ s because I had left them in the cart at the end of the night. I turned the cart in when it was pitch black out as they were closing and realized when I got home that they were missing. Called first thing in the morning and the head golf pro said he was going to talk to the closing employee and then call me back. Guess what? Not only did I need to follow up with HIM multiple times but they didn’t find my expensive glasses. I have a hard time believing they weren’t found by an employee. They were the only ones who had access to those sunglasses. I’m very dissapointed in the outcome of this situation. I will never play broad run again.

Top three best course in PA. Very friendly staff, and extremely welcoming. The course is very challenging but fun. Amazing scenery, all around. Course is in very good shape, although the greens weren’t perfect but everything else makes up for it. Expect longer play time and dont even think about walking the course. I cant wait to go back and play again very soon,

Great track, with lots of elevation changes and challenging pin placments. The carts convienently come with GPS which is great. The best part of this course are the elevation changes which are a lot of fun and throw a little bit of a curvball at you when trying to figure out what club to pull out of the bag. My only complaint would be the pace of play. Its a long course so you need to figure on about 5 hours for a round, but its definetly worth it. Well done.

I heard about this place from a friend who drove by it and was intrigued… It’s an impressive spectacle! Lots of rolling fairways up and down hills. Plenty of teeing off from hilltops, which is always fun. It’s definitely challenging and upscale, but the employees are friendly and not pretentious. It’s my new favorite track!
