Running Deer Golf Club

About Running Deer Golf Club

This South Jersey gem punches well above its weight class, earning a stellar 4.7-star rating from over 500 golfers who've discovered what locals have known for years. Set in the rolling farmland of Salem County, Running Deer takes full advantage of its natural terrain without the pretension you'll find at pricier daily-fee courses in the region. The layout rewards strategic thinking over pure distance, and the conditioning consistently surprises first-time visitors who expect municipal-quality turf based on the green fees. What sets Running Deer apart is its authentic, unpretentious golf experience. This is a course built for players who care more about a good walk and honest golf holes than cart paths and beverage cart service. Walking is not only allowed but encouraged, and the routing flows naturally across the property without forced carries or gimmicky water features. For Philadelphia-area golfers willing to make the drive south, you'll find better value and more enjoyable golf than most options twice the price closer to the city.
