Trump National Philly
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I play Trump National Philly as a non-member, and what's the best way to get a tee time?
This is primarily a members-only club, so getting a public tee time isn't straightforward. Your best bet is to know a member who can invite you as a guest, or look into charity events hosted there. Don't expect to just call up and book a round.
What's the actual playing experience like at Trump National Philly, beyond the name?
You'll find a meticulously maintained course with challenging elevation changes and plenty of water hazards, especially on the back nine. The greens are typically fast and true, demanding precision with your short game. It's a proper test of golf, not just a pretty walk.
Is the "Trump" premium worth it for a round at Trump National Philly, and what should I expect to pay?
While guest fees are certainly on the higher end, you're paying for an immaculate course, top-tier service, and a truly exclusive experience. Expect guest fees to be in the $250-$400 range, depending on the season and who you're playing with. If you appreciate pristine conditions and a luxurious atmosphere, it delivers.
What are some standout holes or unique design features at Trump National Philly that I should look forward to?
Keep an eye out for the dramatic par-3 14th, which plays downhill over water to a well-guarded green - it's a real beauty and a card-wrecker. The finishing stretch, particularly 16 through 18, offers some fantastic risk-reward opportunities and memorable views. You'll definitely remember the challenging elevation changes throughout.
When is the best time of year to visit Trump National Philly for optimal playing conditions?
We recommend visiting in late spring (May-June) or early fall (September-October) for the best weather and course conditions. The summer can get quite hot and humid, while early spring or late fall might see cooler temperatures and less vibrant landscaping. You'll want to experience this course when it's at its absolute peak.
