WHITE CLAY CREEK GOLF CLUB
🇺🇸 Wilmington, DE, USA
Designed by Arthur Hills, Steve Forrest
White Clay Creek Golf Club, etched into the landscape near the Delaware Park Racetrack, offers a surprisingly demanding round despite its relatively recent vintage. This early 2000s design showcases a modern approach to parkland golf. The course meanders through rolling hills and wooded areas, presenting a series of holes that reward strategic play over raw power. While generous fairways offer a sense of openness, strategically placed bunkers and water hazards enforce accuracy, making it a challenge for all levels of player. Don't expect dramatic elevation changes. It's a second shot golf course.
Designed by Arthur Hills, White Clay Creek has a reputation for its meticulously maintained greens. Though it hasn't hosted any major championships, its challenging layout and excellent conditioning make it a popular venue for regional amateur events.
The club fosters a strong sense of community, particularly among local players, many of whom appreciate the course's accessibility and playability. Beyond the golf, the club has long been a favorite spot for the surrounding community to host family cookouts as their facilities are top notch.
White Clay Creek distinguishes itself as a course that has made a point of being family friendly. The club also holds a popular holiday light show.
Reviews
Cool course, cool layout, good clubhouse
Absolute hidden gem. Some of the best greens I have ever played and for only $69 on a Friday morning with a cart this is an absolute steal. If this course was located in Maryland it would easily be a top 3 public course in the state
