Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Avoid the left fairway bunker off the tee on this slight dogleg right par 4 and club up on your approach as this hole plays uphill and into the wind, but exercise caution as bunkers sit below both sides of a two-tiered green that slopes severely from back to front.

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Long hitters should choose 3-wood off the tee on this medium-length downhill, downwind par 4, as the Wissahickon Creek for which the course is named travels through the landing area at the bottom of the fairway.
From The Fairway A short iron off a downhill lie will bring you to a severely sloped green on which it’s imperative to stay below the hole.

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee A short wedge is all that’s needed on this short par 3, but miss this raised narrow green and you’ll likely find yourself in one of the surrounding bunkers sitting well below the putting surface.

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee Tillinghast’s version of church pew bunkers makes this into-the-wind approach even more visually intimidating.
From The Fairway Bunkers and large oak trees guard the left and right sides of the fairway, and even a long drive on this massive par 4 may leave you with a 3-wood/hybrid/long iron into a very well-protected green.

From The Fairway Gauge the wind carefully before selecting a club to carry Wissahickon Creek but fall short of three back bunkers.

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee Club selection is crucial on your approach as you’re hitting to a two-tiered green that is the longest on the course.
From The Fairway Avoid the old train tress on the right and aim to clear the bunkers that pinch the fairway on this uphill par 4 that stretches to almost 500 yards.

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Landing your drive in the fairway should take a vast expanse of bunkers that cross the fairway - the “Great Hazard” - out of play on your second shot.
On The Green Longer hitters need to carry front greenside bunkers to give themselves an eagle putt.

Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee The fairway slopes hard left to right on this short par 4, so righties should play a draw off the tee; a driver is not necessary.
From The Fairway This green is surprisingly large and being in the wrong portion of the long, narrow surface will lead to a 3-putt.
On The Green Check the pin location as a deep, large bunker guards the front of the green and blocks the view on your uphill approach

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Out of bounds runs down the entire left side of the hole on this short par 4. Hit 3-wood or long iron off the tee and stay on the left side of the fairway, and you’ll have a clear short iron into this heavily sloped green.
On The Green Missing right off the tee means hitting your approach around or above a tall tree guarding the green.

Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee A short iron is sufficient on this par 3 that takes you back to the clubhouse, but wind may alter your club selection.
From The Fairway Bunkers and thick rough surround the green on all sides and out-of-bounds runs down the left side of the hole.

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee Aim left of the trees guarding the right side of the fairway on your semi-blind tee shot on this par 5 and you may find a speed slot, but more than likely, this is a three shot hole.
From The Fairway Stay below the hole on this green that slopes from back to front.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee

Hole 14
