This course is a challenging course with great features.

One drawback is to drive the cart in the residntial area. Apart from that, it is a great course.

Beautiful Day, Golf Ability Not So Beautiful

This course is somewhat demanding for the higher handicapped golfer. Tight fairways and woods. Greens bumpy from aerating. I played from the back tees, but should have moved up. Distance was not my problem. Don't think it would have helped. Course is shorter than most, but makes up for it in the accuracy of your shot. I read one comment to "bring a lot of balls", I agree. Found a few too. Had my moments though.

Challenging and fun

A course built within a community with many elevations and long rides between some holes. Great condition for the end of summer. Challenging, yet fun for all level golfers.
It was a very hot day which is probably why the course was empty.
Drinking water on the course was not cold and you do not pass the clubhouse while playing to purchase a cold drink.
Thought the rates were a little high for a Wednesday in September.
Be sure to bring some extra balls as there are some tight fairways.

very hard course, lots of trees, long distance between holes, nice views on tees on top of Mountians, bring plenty of balls you will need them.

Great value for money!

This course is very well maintained. Fairways and greens are plush with nice tee boxes. Short course but challenging. Need to hit straight and play with a sense of course management. Many hills. Beautiful views. Interesting drives through the community moving from hole to hole. Overall a great value for a course in such good condition.

Half Golf Course, Half Neighborhood Maze

The golf course itself is in great shape, and is a tough layout with very little room to miss. Bring your A-game or a lot of balls. Some holes have houses along them that are a little close. Other are in the woods and are tight. Lots of elevation change Greens were a little slow, as was the pace of play - I was stuck behind a group of 9 (3 3's), took 3 hours to play 11 holes as a single when a twosome finally caught me. Just under 5 hours overall.

One thing about this course though - whoever laid out the holes had to be on something. I guess maybe they stuck golf holes in between existing homes, rather than the other way around? They are convoluted and you drive on the neighborhood streets most of the time between holes, and those that don't meander through the woods. Most of the green to tee distances are about 2 minute drives in the neighborhood on the street, though it was 4 minutes from 16 to 17 through the woods.

Scenic and different

You'll need to enjoy being in a golf cart to play this unique PA course. Holes are located very far from one another neccesitating long drives through neighborhoods and wooded areas. However, this also allows for a variety of scenic and unique holes and exciting elevation changes.

The course was in very, very good shape and we were able to play the midweek round in under 4 hours.

As a big hitter, my eyes get a little too big on some of the short par fours, but reality is this course rewards properly layed up shots. So trust me when I tell you to hit long iron, hybrid or fairway wood or bring some extra balls.

Few Issues

Some of the ball washers at the teeing areas are dry with no water. They need more drinking water jugs and also ensure they are filled some of them were empty.

Golf in the Poconos - no hassle; quiet round of golf.

Each hole is isolated - some have an elevation change, the course is well maintained . We played as a two-some , and 1 group let us through - other than that , we played at a casual pace without delay . The ride from green to the next tee is a long cart ride - enough for you to let go of the bad hole you just played.

Amazing place to play

Course was in very good shape, amazing scenery and wonderful staff. Holes are a bit of a drive from each other but that only lends itself to the view of the property. Amazing houses surround the course. The entire course is a photo opp. Greens, fairways and tee boxes were in great shape.

Terrific greens, well manicured fairways

A gem of a course in the Poconos. Fast, true putting greens and very well manicured fairways. Good pace of play with very few players out on the course. I would definitely return to play here.

Challenging course in excellent condition.

The course was very well maintained. Long with some waste areas to cross, so difficult for the shorter hitters like myself. Greens were true and every aspect of the course, including the condition of the sand traps were excellent. Highly recommend for the better golfers.

Too difficult for average player

Many blind shots and difficult for any person just wanting to have an enjoyable golf day. Beautiful views, but if you did not know the course made for a tough day.

Nice course, worth a try

Course was in very nice shape given the greens were aerated a month ago. Fairwarys, bunkers, tees are well maintained...very good shape. Overall the course is worth a try....only real issue was that it took 5 hours to play.

Very challenging course

This is not your average short course, it is very challenging with lots of up and down hill and dogleg holes.
One drawback is it's located in a gated community and there is a commute between holes, which takes up alot of your round time.
