Getting there

Lookaway Golf Club sits in the rolling countryside of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, roughly ninety minutes northwest of Philadelphia International Airport (PHL), making it an accessible retreat for East Coast travelers without sacrificing genuine pastoral seclusion. The drive from PHL carries you through the suburban fringe before opening into the verdant horse country and stone farmland that defines this corner of southeastern Pennsylvania, where narrow country roads lined with split-rail fencing signal your arrival in Buckingham's quiet enclave. For those with private aircraft, nearby Doylestown Airport (DYL) offers a considerably shorter approach, positioning the club within minutes of touchdown. The final miles unfold through a landscape of manicured estates and wooded preserves, delivering you to Lookaway's gates with the unhurried grace befitting a club whose name itself evokes the contemplative distance between the everyday world and the refined sanctuary within.
