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
Horrible course conditions
We had an 8am tee time.. the staff didn’t show up until almost quarter after 8. We paid and were ready to go tee off when we were informed there was a frost delay. Couldn’t tee off until 9:30am. When asked about a refund they said nothing could be done. There was no where to go and wait. We had to stand in the parking lot or sit in our cars!! At 9:30 we were informed had to wait 15 more minutes to tee off. When we finally teed off the course was absolutely covered in leaves!! Piles of leaves on the fairways!! Looked like they were blown there!! For 65 bucks I feel it should have been taking care of way better
Great Day For Golf
Great Day For Golf is a reference to the weather and playing partner only. A 5 + hour round of golf at this time of year is inexcusable. Two foursomes and a twosome in front of us had to use range finders for ever shot. Multiple looks at every shot from all their playing partners on and off the greens. These guys emulated what the pro's do on TV. From my vantage point watching them tee off and putt, I doubt if any of them were shooting in the 90's. Golf etiquette course's should be mandatory, especially pertaining to cart placement for exiting the green, ready play to speed up play and overall awareness of other golfers on the course.
I ran into the Course Superintendent
while waiting on one of the hole, asked him about 17 - 20 minutes we waited between several hole's, he told me there was no Course Ranger to manage play that day.
Great Value, Great Day
18 holes with cart for under $30...with a couple nice views, can't go wrong. Elevations, sloped fairways, blind tee shots, super challenging for a hack like me. But, it was a beautiful day, no pressure, no worries. Don't miss The Warehouse after your round...Transfusion buckets? Yep.
Sloping fairways. Must play strategic golf.
Wow! A challenging sloping course.
A lot of fun to play if you play strategically a use the slopes.
Challenging
Coarse was in pretty good shape after the first 2 holes
Very challenging greens some to fast LOL
Was worth the money We had fun
Beautiful day for golf
The greens were a little slower than normal, but that played to the players advantage especially on greens 4 & 14 where a down hill putting usually wandered off the green. Now that the leaves are falling, a little more care to blow playing surfaces would be appreciated.
Sad news is, the bar & resturant aren't open till 4pm. New fall & winter hours I guess.
Quirky course with some blind shots and elevated greens. Several fairways narrow in the middle. Many greens are severely sloped with tough pin placements. Maintenance is surprisingly good, especially on greens. A good value
Great day!! Great course! Great Price
The tee boxes were a little hard. But other than that everything was perfect!! Wish they sold Logo Balls in the gift shop.
What a great day and plan on playing again in the near future!!!
Beautiful day for golf.
Greens, fairways, and ruff, in great shape. Stand traps could use some work, some are grassed over. If your not in them it doesn't matter. Narrow fairways, so beware grip it and rip it golfers.
Well maintained Golf course
Enjoy playing this course, but the restaurant is too expensive.
Beautiful day for golf.
Fair ways and greens in great shape. The sand traps could use some work, but if you're not in them it doesn't matter. You can't beat the price and speed of play.
Weekday round
Golfed on Tuesday, 9/10. Course was in great shape and not crowded so pace of play was great. Not a terribly long course and not terribly difficult so it makes for a very enjoyable round for an average golfer.
Pace of Play getting bad
We love this course, but it really, really needs some rangers to get the slower players moving.
We followed a slow 4-some that was behind a slow group of 5!
