About this course

The Nemours Course at DuPont Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware, was designed by Alfred H. Tull and Lester George. The club sits in the Brandywine Valley region of northern Delaware, an area known for its rolling terrain and historic estates associated with the DuPont family's long presence in the state. The course takes its name from the nearby Nemours Estate, one of several grand properties that define the cultural landscape of this part of Wilmington. The routing makes use of the natural topography characteristic of the Piedmont region, with elevation changes and mature tree-lined fairways that provide definition and strategic interest. The design reflects mid-twentieth-century American parkland principles, emphasizing playability while rewarding accurate shot-making. Water features and bunker placements create tactical decisions on approach shots, and the greens vary in size and contour to test different aspects of the short game. DuPont Country Club has served as a private club for members with ties to the DuPont Company and the broader Wilmington business community. The club maintains traditional country club amenities and a membership culture rooted in the corporate and social history of the region. The Nemours Course provides the primary championship layout for club competitions and member play, offering a well-maintained parkland experience in a setting shaped by both natural landscape and the area's distinctive industrial heritage.
