Jordan Creek (Whitehall)
Nockamixon State (Quakertown, 14 holes)
Tinicum Park (Erwinna, 40 minute drive)
Tyler State Park (Newtown, 45 min. from Tinicum)
Brandywine Creek (Wilmington, DE, play if you're down around Philly)
Hackett's Park (Easton, will be finishing improvements by end of '07)
Here are places if you get time, they're not a bad play:

Good luck no matter where you go! -Andrew from the Valley
