Summary:
This is a good municipal course that could be great. Like most municipals, the course is poorly maintained. I lost two balls that landed in the fairway!

The greens were ok. The tee boxes fine. The layour fantastic, although short.

Despite some of its problems, I would definitely recommend the course. It isn't like it costs 100 per round. For the money it's better than many in the area.

Besides, if you are plating there you're probably a mediocre at best hacker, so who cares.

Customer Service:
Very nice people.

Summary:
Fairways are pretty hard, and the yardages from the tees on the par fours and fives are way off. No way I can hit a 480 yard hole with 3-iron, 7-iron. Greens were green, but a little bumpy. A decent course to play on a weekday afternoon when it is not too crowded. The middle eight holes are a challenge.

Customer Service:
Good

Summary:
This course says it all. You run into those tough par 4'2 on the back and those easy par 3's on the front. It can be a challenging course at times but its one of the best municipal courses you could ever play.

Customer Service:
Great customer service, never had any better.

The halfway house on Cobb's is great, when its open.

Summary:
People told me I should play this course. All I could get was a tee time on the Karakung course (the lesser of the two). Once I finally found the clubhouse, I got paired up with a couple great guys.

I can't blame the course guys for the fact that it has rained so much in Phillly lately, but someone really has to cut the tees, fairways, even the rough. The greens were in very good shape considering the rest of the course. I think I lost 3 balls, and 1 of them hit the fairway! I thought I'd get Lyme disease from ticks in the 1-2 foot grass around the fairways and past the tees.

We couldn't get a cart because of the sogginess, so walking 18 holes carrying a bag wasn't too much fun. Also, with soaking wet feet because of the standing water in the fairways.

Other than that..the layout is good. It just needs some maintenance...don't think I'll go back until I can ride and it gets a good dose of landscaping. One more thing...there is no break in this course! You go directly from 9 to 10...come on..you need to stop for a drink!

Customer Service:
better than most!
