What Is Jonathan's Landing in Dover, Delaware?
Updated
Jonathan's Landing is a public golf course and banquet/event center located just south of Dover, Delaware. It combines everyday public golf—tee times, outings, instruction, and annual passes—with indoor and outdoor event spaces for weddings, parties, and other gatherings, plus JB's Pub for food and drinks. It suits two main audiences: golfers looking for a public course in Kent County and anyone planning a wedding, party, or group event in the Dover area.
Golf at Jonathan's Landing
The golf side is built around public access. The site organizes its golf offerings into these areas:
- The Course – an overview of the course itself
- Public Tee Times – booking for general public play
- Passholder Tee Times – tee time access for annual pass holders
- Outings – group and outing bookings
- Instruction – golf lessons
- Annual Passes – season-long play options
- Daily Deals – promotional playing offers
- Course Gallery – photos of the course
If you want to play, start with the public tee time booking; if you expect to play often, compare the annual pass option against paying per round. The site does not publish prices in the material reviewed, so confirm current rates and pass terms directly when you book.
Weddings, Parties, and Events
Jonathan's Landing Banquet & Event Center positions itself as a venue for weddings and parties in Kent County, with both indoor and outdoor spaces. The site lists:
- Event Spaces and an Event Spaces Gallery for seeing the rooms and grounds
- An Events Calendar for scheduled happenings
- A Book Today path and a Schedule a Tour call to action
The published guest reviews point to a few practical themes worth knowing before you tour:
- Communication and flexibility – one reviewer (Tiana C., married 5/26/2024) highlighted consistent communication and the venue's ability to adapt to last-minute changes.
- Staff coordination with vendors – a reviewer planning a holiday party (Princess R., 12/15/2022) noted staff helped coordinate with a caterer.
- Space for guests and dancing – a reviewer (Amanda H., married 12/03/2022) described ample room for a Christmas-themed reception.
- Value for smaller budgets – one review is titled "Great View And Experience For Smaller Budget."
These are guest impressions, not guarantees; use a tour to confirm capacity, catering rules, and what is included for your date.
JB's Pub
JB's Pub is the on-site food and drink spot, with menu, hours, and specials listed on the site, plus a Pre-Order Now option. It's relevant both to golfers finishing a round and to event guests.
