Jericho National Golf Club

Jericho National Golf Club sits in the rolling countryside of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, near the Delaware River town of New Hope. Designed by Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry and opened in 2003, the course occupies former farmland and incorporates the natural terrain's elevation changes and wooded corridors into its routing. The design partnership, known for environmental sensitivity and strategic variety, created a layout that moves through distinct landscape zones across the property. The course features significant topographical movement, with holes playing through meadows, along ridgelines, and into lower-lying areas where water features come into play. The routing takes advantage of natural amphitheater settings on several holes, and the design emphasizes width off the tee with strategic bunkering that rewards thoughtful positioning. Green complexes vary in character, from elevated targets requiring aerial precision to ground-game-friendly approaches, reflecting the architects' philosophy of offering multiple ways to play holes depending on conditions and skill level. Jericho National operates as a semi-private facility, providing public access alongside member play. The course has developed a regional reputation for conditioning and playability across different skill levels, with multiple tee options that allow the layout to stretch beyond 7,000 yards or compress for shorter hitters. The Bucks County setting, with its historical character and proximity to both Philadelphia and New York, places the course within a golf-rich corridor of the mid-Atlantic region.
