Sand Barrens Golf Club

Sand barrens was sold to Union League of Philadelphia last fall. It is now a private golf club that is only open to union League members.

They don't sell beer to non members. Not even after your round. Greens and fairways were in good condition but too much sand. And they're not fairway bunkers they're waste bunkers. I would consider playing down the road at Avalon for half the price.

Played Monday with a group they are still aerating and top sanding most of the courses down here where done six weeks ago. Not a great layout and not in good shape. Beside stat the starter and staff acted like you where bothering them, never again!

We have eaten here many times, the food is always delicious for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is open to the public but a lot of people don't know about it, a hidden gem in Swainton.

All 3 sets of 9 holes are very similar which isn't a bad thing. $115 fee for weekend is a bit steep. I think putting out range balls would be appreciated. Nice staff. My biggest suggestion would be to correct the yardage. So many sprinkler heads, but so few are marked. One hole has a double green, there is a sprinkler head around 135, but no idea if that is to right or left green.
