Length 6565 yards
Slope 132
Rating 72.4

Situated amidst the beautiful Pocono Mountains, Mt. Airy Golf Club sprawls across lush rolling hills covered with lakes and ponds. There are also wandering streams that cut across the course. This demanding layout requires accuracy over distance with tree-lined fairways and a wildly undulating terrain. Golfers will be faced with tricky uneven lies as well as several blind shots. Water hazards also come into play on several holes. The golf course is challenging but high handicappers should not be too discouraged since it can also be quite forgiving, especially on the fairways, which offer some room for error. Mt. Airy is a demanding course, but the interesting hole designs are fun to play and the beautiful setting will make the round worth it even if your score is less than perfect.

Great course

Great golf course for a great price of $25. Views were excellent and the course was challenging. We couldn't tell it had been rain for the past couple days as well. If you're in the Pocono's it's a must play at the price!

Slow play outweighs good features

I last played Mt. Airy twenty years ago. I stopped playing there, in part, because the pace of play was so bad. I played on Sunday, October 6, 2013, and the pace of play is still a problem. The front nine took three hours and the back about two hours and five minutes. It is a well maintained course with some interesting holes and and a couple poorly designed ones (blind hazards in landing areas). The course is challenging and there seemed to be a lot of high handicappers playing (casino guests?), which contributes to the slow play. It may be better to play during the week. If I could have played it in four hours or less, I would have no complaints.

I bet you'll like this course!

Very challenging for the beginner & intermediate golfers. (In my humble opinion) The greens were in great shape and slightly fast (which I personally prefer) and the fairways are in good condition. (If you can hit them and stay on)
It' a great deal for the money so GO PLAY!!!

One of the best in the Poconos

We got a great deal and the course is great. It is kept in tip top shape and continually gets better every year. It is the hardest course in the Poconos but it is fun and makes it challenging for the good golfer. Only area that could be nicer is the bunkers. They are in great shape but they need a different type of sand. I recommend the sand Great Bear has in their bunkers

Tough test in the Poconos!

The course apparently gets backed up so book and early tee time. We had to get out a little ahead of schedule as another twosome had an earlier time. Would have liked to hit some balls at the range beforehand.
The course is pretty tough all around. Plenty of blind shots (hole #1 wakes you up right away - long uphill par 5 with a blind 2nd and long third) and there is little ease up through the first 6. Definitely a shot-shapers course as you need to fade and draw regularly to stay in the fairways. Fairways are mostly narrow with ample woods and water on what seems to be every hole. Lots of tall grass and OB. If you are a sprayer, bring at least a dozen balls.
Greens are good but not great. They are large for the Poconos - many courses have postage stamp greens but not Mt Airy. You can definitely make putts here.
If you haven't played the course before you will almost certainly be hitting to the wrong spots. The twosome we hooked up with was familiar with the course so that helped a lot. If they have a yardage book buy it - I didn't notice one, though.

Great layout

Course makes you feel like your vacationing in the south. Hole 18 reminded me of one the holes at the great white at the doral. Comparable in condition and difficulty. Will definitely recommend it and play it again.

Worth the trip

Great golf course and in great condition. I thought it was a hard golf course playing it for the first time with a lot of blind shots and not sure where you should put the ball on tee shots.With that being said I enjoyed myself thoroughly and look forward to playing it again knowing how to plot myself around.

Nice course to play with excellent price from Golfnow

It was our first time playing this course. Course staff was very kind to notify us some information of certain holes. The course is well maintained. We are able to play fast without waiting. The only complain I have is the distance mark on the course seems not that accurate comparing to my GPS.

Great course, but need to manage pace of play.

There are many posting about maintaining pace of play, but no enforcement that I saw. In two separate rounds, it took 2 and 1/2 hours to play front nine each time. In the second case, we combined our two threesomes to play as a sixsome (with approval of golf course), and we still waited on almost every hole for the groups in front of us.

Simply beautiful!!!!!

Really giving this 4.5 starts. I'm using the two star rating so it can be read...

It was my first time this season and was delighted to see it well maintained. It came long way from even a couple of years ago. The negs are not all tee boxes have sand and no sand container on the carts. Also, I noticed fresh ball marks on the greens. People just don't fix them. I recommend that they have signs posted at each hole as a reminder. None the less this course is in great shape especially considering the negs. Nice work ground crew!!!

Not my favorite but

The course was in very nice shape but I hate the starting hole. Its a par 5 with 2 blind shots to get to the green. There are also a couple other holes on this course I dont like. Another draw back, no putting green and no driving range. So you get out of the car and hit. For the price its not a bad deal but there is no way Id pay more to play here.

Beautiful course

played 18 at another course in the morning that we played right through got a great deal for this course which was very beautiful and in great shape considering the area got 4 inches of rain the day before. Our tee time was 3:00 but the course called and ask us to go out at 3:20 because a friend of the golf pro called to get his kid out with his friends. Fortunately they only played 9 because the pace they played was slow 5 practice swings only to hit ball 100 yards if that. Overall it's a very nice course and I would certainly play again

Challenging test of golf

Played this course on a hot deal. I didn't find the first hole as hard as others have made it out to be. It's uphill but you just have to hit a decent drive and second shot to the top of the hill and then you're in business. Some of the holes call for a draw or a fade off the tee which makes it challenging. The sand in the bunkers was really packed down so the ball would sometimes run through rather than getting caught in it. That can be a good or bad thing! Overall this is a really nice, challenging course.
