Wilkes-Barre Golf Club

The conditions were great and on a Tuesday afternoon we had the place to ourselves !!

Reservations were good early morning rain course soggy we were instructed car path only and otherwise course was in good shape.

This is a fun and beautiful course with a layout that requires all of your clubs

This course does nearly everything right. And it's an excellent layout with a good mix of easy and challenging holes. Staff is super nice and it's a good value.

2 primary negative issues:

Pace of play can be ridiculously slow. There are no rangers and the bulk of players there do not care about a reasonable pace of play. If you don't mind people with little regard for their fellow golfers and waiting on every shot, it's a good good option.

Course conditions are suspect. This course, in good shape, would be all you could ask for. Unfortunately, it's no that.

Side note. They let out singles and 2somes and don't pair anybody up. 2 groups yesterday decided to play a scramble and ruined the pace of play for everyone else. Slower groups, at least in our experience, either do not know about letting faster groups through or they just don't care.

And, this course, for whatever reason, maybe because it's not expensive, attracts a lot of horrible golfers. I mean bad, like they never played before. Painful to watch.

Course is great layout, well designed. On this day the greens needed to be rolled smoother. However the heavy recent downpours may have been the reason. A course marshal could be used for the slow play on a Monday.

The course is in great condition, the pace was perfect, the staff is professional and friendly. The weather was perfect. What more could anyone ask for !! We had a wonderful day.

Beautiful course with open fairways and challenging hole designs. It was a little slow but it was the first hot day of the season.

Got a good deal on teeoff and gave it a shot. Course is on top of a mountain outside of the city. Played just after an unexpected heavy rain, so conditions were soft and soggy. Greens had been recently aerated. Despite all this we really enjoyed our round. Course is laid out well with little distance between holes. Fairways are wide, greens spacious and tee boxes long with four levels of yardage. Back 9 is hillier with water coming into play on 3-4 holes. Good cart paths and bunkers. A few blind shots to keep it interesting. Will return.

I love this course it is beautiful. But when it's cart path only I'm not happy. It's a huge course to have to walk alot of it.

Very enjoyable round of golf. Improving conditions every time we play. Great staff. Great deals offered on Golf Now.

The course has a nice layout, good conditions, and friendly staff. The grounds crew has done a great job repairing the greens. We usually play early afternoon and the pace moves right along.

This beautiful mountain course is getting better every day. The grounds crew is doing a great job. The greens repairs are incredible. Chis Mathews the new golf pro is fantastic.
