    Philadelphia Country Club Course Review




    The Philadelphia Country Club is a family orientated private resort, available just for its members and their guests and one of the oldest in the United States. The Philadelphia Country Club goes way back to the 19th century,being founded in 1890 and the initial facility featured just a short 3 hole course but it was later expanded, slowly but surely. In 1925 the club acquired an additional 210 acres in Gladwyne and hired the famous architect William Flynn to design the new 18 hole golf course (Spring Mill)and the rest is history. The Spring Mill golf course at Philadelphia Country Club can be best described as a classic design/layout from the Golden Age of golf ,being masterfully routed across the property, taking full advantage of the contours and the features of the land, yet in a gentle manner, without intruding too much. Basically, the land was left in the same state as the designer found it.

    Each of the eighteen holes has a distinctive character, the hazards are often deep and the bunkers frame the landing area right and left. The golf course suffered many changes during its long and tumultuous history, but with the latest restoration it was returned to its original state. In 1990, during the Clubs Centennial Anniversary, an additional golf course was added to the property, a 9 hole variety, designed by architect Tom Fazio, as the Centennial Nine. Together with enjoying a great round of golf, visiting the Philadelphia Country Club offers various other activities for its members, things like bridge or bowling. But golf is the name of the game, as everything revolves around golf in its purest form. Just try playing the Philadelphia Country Club once and youll get back again, year after year.
