Golden Oaks Golf Club in Fleetwood, Pa. is considered one of Berks County's finest courses with a four-star rating from Golf Digest, which also named it as one of the top "Places to Play." It was voted the "Best Public Course" by readers of Berks County Magazine. Designed by local architect Jim Blaukovitch, the golf course has a classic design that appeals to players of all skill levels. The course has wide, inviting fairways but there are also some challenges provided by the rolling terrain, featuring elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Be prepared for a variety of uphill, downhill, and sidehill lies. Trees line Golden Oaks Golf Club's fairways and strategically placed bunkers protect the greensides. The golf course has some tricky holes but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Bring your "A" putting game

Course conditions were good to very good, even after a couple days of rain. Pace of play was good, finished in roughly 3:40 and only waited a couple times - longish rough that made finding balls challenging was the primary cause of any slowdowns.

Greens were deceptively fast and only got faster as it warmed up and dried out. Subtle breaks on many greens, given their speed anything above the whole was tough - our threesome totaled 5 putts that ended up off the green! Don't get me wrong - they are VERY fair and roll true, just faster than most in the area.

Definitely recommended, good value at normal price, excellent if can get a discounted tee time.

Not the same value

Like the course and it's on my foursome's list to play often. But they stopped their Brandywine Trail Program without warning players in the program. So we show up and are then told the benefit is not available. Thus due to management the course has lost value and we will no longer play unless it's the last course on our list with available tee times.

Course is always in great shape. Cart path only was the only negative, many fairways could have been open.

Golden Oaks

Great value course. Has some variety of holes, and some good par 3s but nothing too challenging. Greens are pretty simple but rolled true and overall conditions were great.

Nice little grass range as well.

Enjoyed it

I have to thank you for leaving a rake in the perfect spot.

On the 4th hole my ball hit off a rake from which it rolled directly onto the green and into a hole for a hole it one.

What more could I ask for?

Great course

Staff at golden oaks is probably one of the best I’ve seen, very friendly. Course is in excellent condition except the greens were just airatef. Tee boxes, fairways are in great shape, good mix of holes. Normally greens roll true. The starters are very friendly and professional.

Really Nice Layout

Excellent course layout especially considering that many holes run along a ridge. The course manages not to be crazy up and downhill holes despite the terrain. Views from several holes are spectacular. General condition of the course is usually pretty good, but there are some glaring things that would improve the course (ie - on course signage is sometimes done freehand with a spray paint can or the ugly, rubber lined lake running along #18. All in all however, very enjoyable place for a round and the restaurant and bar is also excellent for after the round.

Great value and great course design

10 minute tee times make for good pace of play. Lots of elevation changes make for a good test of skills.

We played this remarkable course for the first time, and it was well worth the 45 minute drive. The course conditions were among the best of any I've played this time of year. It offers a nice layout that is reasonable for the average golfer but provides enough challenging holes to keep you on your toes.
