About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Greens in great shape as well as traps.
A challenging course.
Fun course
Sporty with demanding tee shots. Choosing less than driver may be the smart choice on several holes with the trade off of a longer approach to a tilted green. Great risk/ reward course
Very Nice
3rd time playing this course, the fairways were just cut, and the greens were very nice and very challenging. The pace of play was excellent due to the very light volume of other players. A couple of fairways showed some damage from the rainy weather, but most were in fine shape.
Bargin price for great golf expreience
Got a great deal for a weekend price. Staff was engaged and actually did some pace of play management. They directed a foursome playing very deliberately to allow several twosomes to play through. Quite unexpected, but welcomed. Course was wet and cart path only which they enforced as well! Having played this course previously makes it more of a challenge to improve shots on each hole. I first saw this course as unkind, but later found it to be fair.
Challenging course with great scenery
First time playing this course - the reviewers weren’t joking, short but a real challenge: narrow fairways, elevation with a few blind shots and tight doglegs. This course forces you to think. I left the driver in the bag on all but 3 holes. The course is also very well laid out with nice scenery - in short it was a pleasure to play. Can highly recommend it. Will be back.
The cart paths are a little in need of repairs - otherwise would have been 5 stars all round.
course in good shape and tbey are improving.
course was in great shape. new management making some very good changes.
nice greens
The greens were very nice. A lot of elevation changes
getting better
they still have much work to do bunkers are full of weeds and rocks but greens are good and fairways have nice grass.
Improved
I've played this cour se for a few years now and they have made significant improvements, especially in the drainage around the 8th home.
excellent experience
Got the Tee time last minute.We drove up from Jersey and got there way early. when we went to check in the lady behind the counter was so nice and so pleasant making the long ride worth the trip before we even played. Her husband was just as great to us and just because of that i would have gone back the next day if i could have . The course was in great shape. They has a lot of nasty weather up there this winter and leading up to golf season so they did an excellent job getting it ready. We had a great day and the couple that run it made it even better and for that i thank them from the bottom of my heart and i cant wait to see them again!!
Everyone is so friendly Mark and the staff are great . I live at CCP, but play here a lot Looking forward to the new restaurant.
