Golf in Buckingham

Buckingham Township in Bucks County is horse farm country, a municipality of gently varied pastures, stone walls, and preserved farmland in the New Hope-Doylestown corridor that has maintained an equestrian and agricultural character despite significant residential development pressure. The township's active farmland preservation program has protected more acreage than almost any other municipality in the Philadelphia region, and the landscape between courses reflects that investment — working farms, rural roads, and the wooded creek corridors that drain toward the Delaware River ten miles east. New Hope anchors the cultural character of the area: the arts community, the canal path, and the weekend visitors from Philadelphia and New York who have made lower Bucks County a tourist destination. Golf in Buckingham occupies the open land that preservation has maintained, competing with equestrian facilities for the township's remaining pastoral acreage.
