The Inn At Pocono Manor - East Course
About
The Inn at Pocono Manor offers two championship golf courses, conveniently located less than two hours from New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia. Surrounded by the beauty of the Poconos, the inn has earned a spot on the National Registry of Historic Places. George Fazio designed the West Course, and the East Course was Donald Ross' creation. The East Course, the original layout, has hosted a number of legendary players, including Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead, since 1912. Ross carefully sculpted the mountainous landscape to create a course that is both challenging and memorable. It is shorter and tighter than the other course but they are equal in level of difficulty. The golf course is defined by the interesting water hazards that come into play on several holes, but the scenic views are also a draw.

Sweet little course
A little quirky, but I really enjoyed it. I would have liked to play it again, but our golf week was over. Get the sheet from the clubhouse that describes how to best play each hole -- if you've never played the course, you'll need it on at least a couple of the holes (like the first par 3).
If/when I get to golf in the Poconos again, this course is definitely on my list.
The restaurant was closed for a private function, so I can't comment on it.
Nice layout
I like this course and try to get there 3 or 4 times a year. For a mountain course there are not excessive slanted lies. And the layout keeps errant golf balls from flying onto your space. Greens are rather fast and kinda small. But the starter and staff are very easy going and the pace there is definitely laid back. Just a fun place to golf.
Wonderful round
This course was a delight and a challenge from what we are used to. Surprises abound at each new hole and we enjoyed the creative layout. Rain caught us on hole 14 and along with the chilly breeze that made the final holes even tougher. With the exception of some rocky bunkers, we could not find a single thing to improve. We look forward to playing again!
pocono manor
older course, frequently get a good deal on golf now, not a bad course but not super well kept
Course was great, the pace of play horrible
The course and staff were great, but playing in the afternoon was not good. The pace of play was so bad that the group behind us and we left after 14 holes.
Pocono Golfers
This coarse is fun, just enough of a challenge to keep us coming back
Excellent condition
Pocono Manor was in excellent condition. Hadn't played there since the late 1960's. The greens are small and there wasn't a front, middle, back designation on the pins. Only three sand traps on the entire course. Golf Now rates are definitely the way to book your tee time.
Worth a second look
Course is in really good shape, and much improved from 3 years ago (last time I played the course). Interesting par 3 holes! Tee boxes and greens in excellent condition. Very competitive course layout, playable for beginners and intermediate (me) players.
Nice Course
We had a morning tee time, and already the greens had taken a lot of abuse. The course gets a lot of resort novice golfers, who "do not" fix ballmarks which make putting a challenge. Almost every cup had the rims damaged from people not paying attention when removing and replacing the flags. I commend the staff for maintaining the course in the shape they do under the circumstances.
course was good..
had to wait on servral holes. the course was busy. a little lightening at the end, but we finished
Great day
Course was in good shape. Played at 9:00am for $35 which you can't beat. Finished in 3:40
Pocono Golfers
This is a good coarse, well maintained just enough of a challenge to make you come back.
Pace of play can sometimes get backed up, so you need to be patient
Great old style course. Perfect for resort area.
Played course with wife and daughter. I am a 15 handicap and they are working on their game. Pace was great and we did not feel rushed. The course is a great layout with various lie opportunities. Perfect course for medium and beginner players.
POcona Manor
We were impressed with the improvements of course condition, since the last time we played it 4 years ago.
The fairways were in excellent shape, the greens were a bit slow but understandable given the recent air rating. I was told that they had a new greenskeeper which showed immediately. We'll definitely go back and play it again.
