Great Walk in the Woods...Nice Course!!! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 8, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

Visually and Physically, such a nice walk...filtered light and a good amount of wild Life.

Almost all wooded Holes...all holes offer the opportunity to Play aggressively while hitting a choice of approach lines. The course handles water and weather well

Conditions are good...good signage. Just a few nuisance areas for losing discs.

Cons:

Not many "Oh Wow, Memorable"/Signature Holes.

Some of the places you can lose discs ( such as Right OB on Fairway 6) are just brutal "evergreenish" and thorny brush.

Other Thoughts:

I play here and Sellersville....I have nice choices!!!

Great course that's expanding 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 10, 2019 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Fort Washington DGC is located in beautiful Fort Washington State Park and was originally a boy scout project using object poles. After years of neglect, it was transformed into a top notch, 9 hole course with 2 or 3 (basket) pin placements per hole. Each hole has two permanent baskets - Red (short) & Silver (long). The course is challenging but fair, with most of the course traversing the woods with plenty of trees to navigate. All holes have a clear cut fairway, where good throws are rewarded and bad throws are penalized. Throughout the woods, the rough consists of thick sticker bushes adding difficulty to the scramble, forcing players to use a variety of shots to get up and down.
Tee pads are brick, and there are Tee signs on every hole indicating yardage with a clear picture of the hole. The course is easy to navigate, with clear cut paths between holes leaving little confusion as to where the next tee box is located. A good variety of Par 3s and Par 4s, and even a Par 5 (Hole 10 Red).
Overall this in an excellent course that is beautifully maintained, well designed, and challenging and fun to play. With the multiple pin placements per hole, you can play a full 18 hole round many times over without playing the same layout twice. It is a must play for anyone visiting or passing through the southeast PA / Fort Washington area.
Pros: Beautiful scenery. Highly maintained. Well designed. Clear fairways provide a clear line on every hole. Good shots rewarded. Bad shots penalized.

Cons:

Tee boxes could be a little bigger and can be slippery when wet.
The course gets muddy after heavy rains.
Not an overly "long" course. Only a few holes allow for a true grip it and rip it (if you're looking for that type of course)

Other Thoughts:

Now a FULL 18 Holes!! (as of August 2020)
