Course Details

Blackwood Golf Course, designed by William F. Gordon, features 18 holes of championship golf nestled in the picturesque rural setting of Douglassville, Pennsylvania. The course, originally a dairy farm, was converted by brothers Cuthbert and Gordan Nairn and has been family-owned and operated since its opening. Spanning 120 acres, the course offers a challenging and strategic layout that incorporates subtle rolling hills, mature trees, streams, and ponds. The natural beauty of the landscape is highlighted by the early morning dew and warm summer sunsets, making for a truly memorable golfing experience.

Blackwood Golf Course boasts an exciting and challenging layout, masterfully designed to incorporate the natural beauty of the converted farm-style terrain. With raised greens, strategic bunkering, and a variety of water hazards, the course offers a true test of skill and precision for players of all abilities. The forward tees are well-suited for women, seniors, and new players looking for a fun and enjoyable round, while those seeking a greater challenge can opt for the back tees. Despite a few shorter holes, the course can play deceptively longer from the back tees, thanks to the challenging par 3’s and the ever-present winds

In recent years, the course has undergone significant improvements to enhance the overall patron experience. The greens have been maintained at a slightly slower speed to improve overall health and maintain an above-average pace of play, while adhering to their smaller size. The fairways have been widened, and the rough height has been lowered to allow for acceptable conditions tee to green. These improvements, coupled with the unique layout and natural beauty of the course, make Blackwood Golf Course a truly one-of-a-kind golfing destination. Frequently visited by golfers, who enjoy the challenging and picturesque course and often return for more.
