Chapel Hill Golf Course in Reading enjoys a scenic backdrop of mature forests. The tucked away locale provides a peacefully secluded setting that is ideal for a round of golf. While it may not seem like a long layout at just under 6,150 yards, you'll soon forget about any lack of length once you get on the golf course. From the very first hole you're confronted with a water hazard, a stream that weaves around five other holes. The layout forces you to think through each hole, making the tough decision between going for it or laying up. Accurate shot placement is crucial throughout the golf course, especially on the back nine where there are several tricky doglegs and tough uneven lies. Mature trees tightly line the fairways at Chapel Hill Golf Course, and the greens are framed with strategically placed bunkers.

Great course layout, conditions were miraculous in February. Maybe some cart paths should be repaved.

Nice Place

Not a place for frills. It is an easy course with a basic layout. What I liked; extremely nice greens and sand traps. Fairways very good. Course is very nice if you are accurate with your shot. Didn’t like: some extremely narrow fairways, hole layout a bit boring. No beer. Overall thought very nice .

Greens being worked on and dreadfully need

The greens were like rock. No bite at all and putts would roll backwards on slopes. We have had plenty of rain so not the problem.

A rough ride

The layout of the course is interesting and fun to play. The greens are always in good condition. The fairways are fair. The big problem is the cart pass. They are extremely rough and bumpy and I have friends who will not join me at Chapel Hill because of that.

Very Ambiguous Links

Fun to play, you'll find yourself challenging your own last best drop. Very well laid out courses Rawls pretty well maintained for this high humidity area and time of year. Would wish there was more direction as to Hole next hole and outside Refreshments will be nice even if from vending machines. It's absolutely very clear that the owners of this course and caretakers no matter how small an army cuz of the lack of whatever this course is in good shape and very proud to recommend it and play it again
