Golf in Magnolia

Magnolia is a small community in the Murderkill River watershed of central Kent County, surrounded by the flat agricultural land of the Delaware plain between Dover and Milford. The community's quiet, rural character gives Jonathan's Landing Golf Course its understated inland setting—a contrast to the resort golf of the Delaware coast and the private club tradition of the northern Wilmington corridor. The Murderkill River, which empties into the Delaware Bay at the edge of the Kent County wetlands, gives the area its primary natural feature, and the agricultural landscape of corn, soybeans, and poultry operations defines the visual environment of this quintessentially central Delaware community on the Delmarva Peninsula.
