Old York Road Country Club has been at it’s current location in Spring House, Montgomery County, PA since 1963 when the 126 acre Bennerbrook Farm was purchased and the cornfields converted into the golf course.

Throughout the years with many renovations and upgrades, the beautiful tree lined course has become one of the most desirable private clubs to play in the Philadelphia region and is proud to host numerous PGA and Golf Association of Philadelphia tournaments, including the 2023 GAP Mid Amateur Championship.

Measuring 6,600 yards for the men's team and 5700 yards for the women's team, the Gordons created a great walking course that is a demanding test of golf. Length is not the challenge. The course difficulty lies in hitting precise approach shots and putting the fast, severely sloped, undulating greens.

North Hills Country Club is located two miles from Arcadia's campus in Glenside, PA and serves as a secondary home course for the Knights during the season. The golf course was constructed in 1914 over ground once occupied by a farm and an old iron quarry. The William Flynn design has hosted many local professional and amateur events over the years and par or better rounds are hard to come by. The par 71 layout plays at nearly 6600 yards for the men's team and 5700 yards for the women's team.

Golden Oaks Golf Club in Fleetwood, PA serves as host to one of several Arcadia home tournaments, the Golden Oaks Shootout. The site will also serve as host to the MAC Women's Championship in 2021 and 2022.

Golf course architect Jim Blaukovitch of Quakertown, PA, designed the course, which opened in 1994 and is now considered a "Best in Berks." Golden Oaks Golf Club features an 18-hole, 7,100-yard course with bent grass from tee to green. The course has been rated by Golf Digest with "4 Stars" as one of the top "Places to Play" in the country and was voted as the "Best Public Golf Course" by readers of Berks County Living Magazine.

Turtle Creek Golf Course in Limerick, PA serves as a host to one of several of Arcadia's home events, the Turtle Creek Intercollegiate.

Originally opening for play in 1997, the course has matured over the last twenty years. Golf Digest referred to Turtle Creek as “one of the best maintained courses in the area…with the best turf of any course in the Northeast”.

Situated on 200 plus acres in the center of Limerick, the Par 72 layout plays at over 6700 yards for the men's tournament and 5800 yards for the women's tournament. The land was originally part of a 500 acre William Penn grant of 1718 to Thomas and Hannah McCarty. The majestic stone farm house, which is situated along Landis Creek was built around 1740 by Phillip Dotterer. This structure and its surrounding greenspace will be preserved in its present state to serve as the aesthetic and historical core of the site. Due to its dominant location near the 18th green and 1st tees of the golf course, the house is visible from numerous vantage points throughout the grounds. Building materials from remains of the barn have been incorporated into various improvements within the facility.

The Royal Golf Facility serves as both an indoor and outdoor practice space for Arcadia men's and women's golf. The indoor portion of the facility contains two simulators with Foresight GCQuad launch monitors, and an indoor putting green, made by ProPutt, containing nine holes. Outdoors, there are multiple targets up to 180 yards with multiple hitting mats for golfers to use.

The Dome serves as an indoor on-campus practice space for Arcadia's men's and women's golf teams during the winter months. The Dome is put up each fall over a portion of Weiss Tennis Courts in mid-October, and stays up until Spring Break in mid-March, allowing the golf team to practice year round regardless of the weather conditions outside.
