Beautiful course, need a few Wawas along the miles of cart paths

Beauutiful course, short and lots of hills. Decent condition but a bit slow due to lots of lost balls and miles of cart paths between holes.. beers and a few snacks in pro shop but no food to speak of.. I'd play again in a heartbeat.

Staff and course are fantastic

The golf pro, Kevin, was a one man show! He did everything from the pro shop, to the bar, to cart return. Course was in great condition and my friends from Maine loved it. They can’t wait to come back and play it again.

Perfect day 4 18.

Course was undergoing aerating so it was a bit rough today and it must have rained because some holes you had to stay on cart path, no big deal. One of my favorite courses.

Greens

Great course, only thing I didn’t like were the mini greens. A lot of them were way to small for the hole. Hole 16 5 stars awesome view, awesome hole.

Awful course design

This is by far the worst course I have ever played. I honestly think few of the holes are in a different zip code. The distance between the 5th hole green and 6th holes tee box is about one and a half miles (I’m not exaggerating). 16th and 17th hole are also about a mile apart. There are few other ones but those two really stood out as extreme. You will spend as much time driving the golf cart as you will playing golf. The cart path takes you through neighborhoods and woods. The layout and design of most holes is absolutely ridiculous. It looks like they cleared out a forest on a mountain side, built homes first and then used any leftover land to fill in 18 holes. Fairways are narrow with trees on both sides. There is barely any level ground. Many blind shots. I’m not a great golfer but I can play most of my rounds in the 90s. On this course I gave up on the score after 5 holes. If the fairways are difficult then at least the approach shots should be a little easier. But instead it’s mostly into tiny, elevated, uneven greens with an average of 4 bunkers surrounding them. The holes were cut on uneven parts of the green. Our whole group was unanimously disappointed. Hopefully reading this will help some of you avoid this frustrating, time wasting, pitiful excuse for a golf course, because somehow it has a good rating on GolfNow.

Best little secret in the Poconos

Course is in great shape, the staff is very friendly and the best part is on Tuesdays it’s only $25 for 18 holes including cart.
