Hickory Valley Golf Course

Hickory Valley is north of Pottstown in Gilbertsville, and has two 18 hole courses, the Presidential, and the Ambassador. The Presidential is 6700 yards from the back tees with a 133 slope and was designed by Ron Pritchard. The front nine is a little more open and linksy and much more forgiving off the tee, while the back is parkland style with narrow tree lined fairways and smaller greens well guarded. $20 more expensive than the Ambassador, not sure it's worth it, cause the Ambassador is a good course in it's own right. It's only 6400 yards from the tips and 116 slope, but it will test you as well. It's more of a classic parkland style of course where shot placement is more important than distance. Bot courses are extremely well maintained, and a pleasure to play. Good guest service in the clubhouse and on the course, and the rates are fair for this level of a facility.
