Lookaway Golf Club ☆ Follow

Lookaway Golf Club is a 7,000-yard championship course located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, designed by Rees Jones and encompassing approximately 230 acres. The club opened in 1999 and is ranked 32nd among the best courses in Pennsylvania by Golf Digest. Located 30 miles north of Philadelphia and just 20 miles west of Trenton, New Jersey, the course sits in historic Bucks County bordered by the Delaware River.

The Rees Jones design emphasizes playability and a caddie program, with conditioning and playability serving as an emphasis where golfers find pure turf and a course that caters to all handicap levels. The course is characterized by strong holes in the 4th and 7th positions before unveiling an impressive five-hole closing stretch. The 7th hole, a 399-yard par 4 dogleg left, is highlighted as one of the signature designs with risk-reward elements, while the 18th hole closing hole is one of the most challenging in the state, featuring an island fairway and an uphill approach shot over meadowland to an elevated green protected by bunkers.

The property dates back to 1713 when it was deeded by William Penn, and a portion of the building serving as the clubhouse was built around 1752 and is believed to be the oldest building used as a clubhouse in the United States.
