How Many Golf Courses Are in Delaware?

Delaware's golf landscape includes 22 named courses and country clubs distributed across 22 cities and 3 counties, according to records from the USGS Geographic Names Information System, the federal gazetteer of named geographic features. Because GNIS functions as a registry of named places rather than a comprehensive database of active commercial operations, the directory represents a partial and time-lagged snapshot of the state's golf facilities. Newly established courses or recently renamed facilities may not yet appear in the system, and the federal database does not track operational details such as public or private designation, fee structures, or course layout specifications.

The directory serves as a reference tool for locating courses by city and county. Golfers and prospective members should consult individual course websites to confirm current hours of operation, rates, membership options, and availability for booking.

Directory note. Listings come from the USGS GNIS named-feature gazetteer (2021 vintage) and are partial — public/private status, green fees and course layout aren't in the federal record. Confirm details on each course’s own site.

How to use the Delaware directory

Start by narrowing to where you want to play — by city, or more reliably by county — then open a course for its locality detail. Every listing is a real, named facility from the federal gazetteer; for tee times, green fees and public-or-private status, check the course’s own site, since those aren’t in the GNIS record.
