Course Report
Jonathan's Landing is set on former farmland and marshland, contributing to its unique landscape and natural views.
About
Jonathan’s Landing Golf Club in Magnolia, Delaware is a public 18-hole course known for its distinctive marshland links-style layout. The course features undulating greens, water hazards, and subtle elevation changes, providing a fun and challenging experience for all skill levels. Designed to be enjoyable but still test experienced golfers, it is one of Delaware’s most played public tracks.
Caddie Tip
Mind the wind and elevation changes, especially when targeting greens protected by bunkers or water. Playing conservatively off the tee on several holes can keep big numbers off your scorecard. The course rewards accurate approach shots and smart play around the many undulating green complexes.
The Main Challenge
The toughest aspect of Jonathan’s Landing is contending with winds on the exposed back nine and navigating the many water hazards and marshes that demand accuracy. Well-protected greens and smart bunkering require thoughtful club selection and sound strategy, especially on approach shots.
The Good
Golfers rave about the strategic variety across both nines, with ever-changing scenery, marshland vistas, and a strong mix of challenging but playable holes that make you want to come back. The layout blends risk-reward opportunities with natural beauty, and the greens are typically praised for their quality.
The Not So Good
Some visitors note the course can have slow play during busier periods and signage between holes can be confusing for first-time guests. Fairway and tee box conditions may vary seasonally, and more yardage markers would improve the on-course experience.
