Woodcrest at Woodcrest Country Club

Woodcrest Country Club sits in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, a suburban community southeast of Philadelphia. The course was designed by William S. Flynn with Howard C. Toomey in the late 1920s, during Flynn's most prolific period when he created several notable layouts in the Philadelphia region. Flynn, known for his strategic bunkering and thoughtful use of terrain, worked extensively throughout the Mid-Atlantic before his death in 1944.

The routing takes advantage of gently rolling terrain typical of southern New Jersey, with mature tree-lined fairways and modest elevation changes that create natural movement in the playing corridors. Flynn's design philosophy emphasized strategic options rather than penal hazards, offering multiple routes to greens and rewarding thoughtful course management. The bunkering features the characteristic Flynn style—deep, well-placed hazards that frame approaches and define playing angles without overwhelming the design.

Woodcrest has served as a private club for nearly a century, maintaining its position within the established country club community of the greater Philadelphia area. The course has undergone periodic updates over the decades to address maintenance practices and playing standards while preserving Flynn's original design intent. The layout reflects the classic parkland character common to pre-Depression era courses in this region, with tree canopy, natural drainage corridors, and green complexes that require precision in approach play.
