Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 03/2023

Gilbertsville Golf Club in New Hanover Township is tucked away among the rolling hills of Montgomery County. The 27-hole public course is divided into three nines, called the Red, White, and Blue. The Red and White were the club's original 18 holes when it first opened in 1967, and the Blue nine was added 30 years later. Being one of the older nines, the White Course has a more traditional layout with small, mostly flat greens and wide fairways lined with trees. It's not the most formidable round at Gilbertsville G.C. but it does have a few challenges in store. There are some tricky doglegs and while water may only come into play on two holes, one of these -- the par-5 second -- will leave a lasting impression with a carry over a lake and a meandering stream that edges the right side and then cuts in front of the green.

Best Bang for Buck

There are plenty of public courses in the area but Gilbertsville always seems to have the best prices, especially if you use GolfNow. I played the Red / Blue and it's fairly open. It's a great course for golfers a little bit less experienced because it is not unbelievably long. If you want a relaxing round with a lot of birdie chances for a good price this can't be beat. I think a few holes get a little bit of water after rain but ulitmately the condition of the course is pretty good.

Great Value

Gilbertsville is a fantastic deal. We paid $25 and really enjoyed the course. The course was a litle wet and there were a few dead spots on fairways and greens but overall it was a great time.

Great Course

Great course. Wide open layout. Easy to find your ball. Good pace of play and course is in very good condition. Only issue was backed up on first tee. We had 8:38 tee time, at 8:30 there were two foursomes ahead of us. Once we started though pace was good, will definitely be back!

All around great experience!

Our first time here after hearing from a few friends that recommended it, and it was just as advertised. The greens were spectacular, some of the best public greens I've played in the greater Philadelphia area. This is a 27-hole course so there was a bit of a backup coming back in on the second nine, but we finished in 4 hours despite. The fairway conditions were great for August, and good for the tee boxes. It's a fun layout made for all skills.

Quite a lovely gem, we will be back again before the season is out!

Coarse was in great shape but don't get in the rough because it is rough hard to even find your ball and the sandtraps are some of the worse I have ever seen they really need some attention.

Easy to play.

Overall decent course. Played here 3 weeks in a row and the fairways and greens are very wet and muddy. Friendly staff and cheap beer so can’t beat that.
