Rating 68.8

Surrounded by the Pocono Mountains, the Pocono Hills Golf Course (formerly Fernwood Resort & Country Club) was carefully carved from wooded hillsides. Condos and other residences were later built near the golf course and although they are situated quite close, the round is still enjoyable. The layout is tight with narrow fairways that are lined with trees. The front nine is easier than the back where more dramatic elevation changes come into play. Many of the greens have elevations of over 50 feet, making approach shots a formidable test. There are also a number of tricky doglegs that are practically 90 degree turns. The layout rewards straight, accurate drives and the greens putt fast and true. There are a number of challenging holes, especially the 10th and 14th, but overall Pocono Hills Golf Course is approachable enough for all skill levels.

Slowest round of golf ever

We were waiting easily 15 minute or more at every t box. The group in front of us quit at hole 10. The group behind us quit at 14. We quit at 15. There were no course officials or rangers moving things along. Was terrible.

Enjoyable Poconos golf!

Fairways and greens were in good shape. Played 18 holes in just over 3 hours. The course isn’t long, but it is tight and there are plenty of holes that can add some strokes to your score. Price for a Saturday AM combined with course conditions made for a great deal!

Challenging course in great condition

There are narrow fairways and long par threes on this course but the conditions were excellent and except for a single playing through we were neither pressed or held up. I’ll definitely play the course again ( and bring some extra balls).
