Editor's Note: Course closed for business in 2020.
Located just south of Allentown, Pa., Locust Valley Golf Course is less than hour from Philadelphia and the Poconos and only 15 minutes from the New Jersey border. The course is player friendly enough for high handicappers to approach with confidence but there are a few challenges in store as well. The 6,504-yard layout is a manageable length but there are still a few holes that will test your distance. The terrain is mostly flat though there are a few subtle contours that can be tricky. The fairways have a lot of variation with some that are wide and forgiving and others that are tighter and demand greater accuracy. You'll also have to watch out for the occasional water hazard. Locust Valley is not the most challenging golf course in the area, but it's one of the best values you'll find in town.

Solid value
Locust has a moderate difficulty with a great layout. The course, and the greens in particular, are in great shape.
Very Nice
Well maitained, nice water holes, could use a bar not sure how long this is suppose to be Its a good course worth the money
Fun course requiring shot making
I have played here a few times this year and really enjoyed it. Each hole seems to offer a different challenge be it narrow landing areas, blind pins, or sloped fairways. The conditions have been good, greens and fairways well maintained. A few of the tee boxes could use some work but all in all it's a fun course, that is harder than it looks and is priced very fairly. I look forward to going back soon. In reality I would rate it a 3.5 star due to the tee boxes, and lack of any other facilities (minimal pro shop and snack bar)
