We list only public courses that are less than an hour by car from the heart of the Brandywine Valley. If you know of a course that should be included, email us at hello@thebrandywine.com and let us know.

If you play golf and don't belong to a club or even if you do and play other courses, we highly recommend the Tee Time Golf Pass . This book is a bargain. You can save $10 - $30 in greens fees every time you play. You owe it to yourself to check it out.

221 Glen Mills Road | Glen Mills, PA | 610.558.2142
Designed by Bobby Weed, Glenn Mills' vistas are breathtaking. The changes in elevation reminded you a bit of Fieldstone in Delaware, except this course is open to the public. The fairways are undulating and water comes into play on the back nine. Daily fees are $75 including cart weekdays and $90 Fri, Sat & Sun. (7AM - 12 NOON). Weekend rates drop to $75 after 12:15PM and to $65 for twilight after 4.5 hours before sunset. Tee times can be reserved 7 days in advance.

The course is linked directly to the Glen Mills School, founded in 1826, which is a residential facility for troubled youth. The course is being used as a training facilty for students in turf management and golf house operations. Revenues go to a student scholarship fund.


13 Chisel Creek Drive | Landenberg, PA | 610.255.3961

Chisel Creek opened in 2000. It was built by Niebur Golf, the same people who built Fieldstone Golf Club, an awesome private course in Delaware. Chisel Creek is a par 70 design, three par 5s, five par 3s including No. 3 with an island green.

The layout puts a premium on placement rather than length. The greens are challenging and undulating. Distances on many holes are deceiving and the rough is stubborn. The par 5, 6th hole is particularly challenging as is the par 4, 12th. Overall, an interesting challenge. Rates $44/weekdays; $59/weekends with cart. They accept Tee Time Golf Pass Warm up range and putting green. New clubhouse will be finished whenever. Play it and let us know what you think.

US Rt. 30 | Downingtown, PA | 610.269.2000
Renovated George Fazio designed course that gets a lot of traffic. 18 holes, par 72, open year round. We have heard mixed reviews on Downingtown, but we have not played the course.

"Downingtown is a nice course and should be recommended.  There are several sets of tees that make it family friendly, yet from the back tees, it is quite a challenge. There are several risk reward holes that beg you to dare, but will punish you for mistakes. The condition of the course is nice and despite the high traffic, I thought the greens and fairways were in excellent shape.  It's not a high end daily fee, but I felt like I got a very good value for my money."
