Ed Oliver Golf Club is a great track right outside the city of Wilmington. Located just a short ride off of Route 52 (Kennet Pike(Delaware/PA Ave.)) on Dupont Road. Par is 69 and the course plays just over 6,100 yards. The course was originally opened in 1901 as the Wilmington Country Club and has been redisigned twice since. The rates are affordable which usually means that the course is fairly busy, so you can call ahead to reserve a tee time. There is a driving range and a putting practice facility. The course is faily flat with some water features and a few sand traps overall it is a very forgiving course with generally wide open fairways. Some holes offer a great view of the city as well. The weekday rates as of this writing are as follows (Greens Fee / w Cart) - weekends add an extra $5-$7
18 holes - $26/$41
9 holes - $17/$27
Twilight - $20/$35 ( Twilight start times vary, best bet is to call ahead)
