Back
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
Solo round
Played by myself here. Everyone I came across let me play through them which was great and I wound up getting my round in about 3 hours. But there were several groups that were playing with 6+ people in them.
Wet and windy
Cold morning to start . 48 degrees. Course was wet and soft . Needs to dry out.
improved
I hadn't played here since last spring and I was pleasantly surprised at how improved the fairways and greens are.
This course is enjoyable to play
A challenging but rewarding course with some long par 5's. Went there day after what seemed like ten days of rain. Course only had a few wet spots, fairways were dry. Drainage was good. Pro shop could of been better equipped but that's no problem. Staff there was amazing and friendly. Overall a great place and definitely will be back!

Pocono Hills Golf Course
Overall in great shape . Ladies tee boxes could have been in better shape . I played from the ladies tees as they do not have Senior tees here . Fairways and Greens were in great shape . Sand trapd need to have softer sand in them . Overall , a great course for the money . Excellent restaurant attached to the golf course . Called the Warehouse .
Blind shots
Good thing we played with someone familiar with the course. Too many blind shots
Had to wait 20+ minutes, for hotdogs, at the turn
Early spring
Early spring golf . Thank god someone bought some rakes for the sand traps. Fairways still stiff and needs fertilizer. Slow play on Saturday due to bad golfers. It’s better during the midweek.
Pocono Hills midday
I play here often, always in goo shape. The only issue is it's no cash and management is non existent. Regular staff is good but no one has any real golf experience. I love to just come and play so no need for help but would be nice for others. I have been playing this course for over 30 years.
A fun, challenging layout of holes.
Very fun and awesome layout. Would love to play this place in the summer. Greens and fairways were pretty pure and it’s fall. Very tight though. But it’s a fun challenging course nonetheless. Definitely recommend giving a try.
