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.

First Time Playing

Challenging course in good condition.

I got an excellent price for greens fees over the Internet, including cart. The course is par-72 and challenging. No sand traps that I can remember but there were sand trap-sized mounds covered in knee-high grass that were more difficult to get out of. Also, little or no water to contend with. Fairways and greens were both in nice shape.

Played the east and west courses in one day. East has their own feel and style. Had a great time!

East and West courses have a different feel. East has a few hinkie holes and the west is long and flatter. Play both!

Temporary green on 2nd hole, conditions fair

Pocono Manor East is old course, with many short holes that had blind tee shots. The first 6 holes took over an 1 and 3/4 to play.

West Course: Long, open, no hazards

The West Course is a fun course to practice your game on. The fairways are wide open, with lots of room between fairway and the woods, and is generally in good shape. The greens are clean, very receptive, but slower than many other courses. No bunkers and no water hazards; just a few mounds with long fescue to avoid.

Because the course is long (6700 yards from the whites) I find I am approaching greens from 190-210 yards on some par 4s. This requires an accurate shot to hit what is usually a smallish green. If you miss the green in regulation, then it's the challenge to get up and down to save par.

This is what I find fun about this course.

Great day, play moved along, good course conditions

Warm, sunny and little breeze with fall foliage almost there. Course in good to excellent conditions, greens great and although not fast gave a true predictable roll. Had a great time with friends although the longish par 3s did me in.

best value in the poconos

Love Pocono Manor West - it's a bombers paradise. One of my favorite pocono courses. It's a crying shame they're going to bulldoze 9 holes of the course for the proposed mega water park. Hoping against hope that doesn't happen - it's a gem of a golf course (much prefer it to the quirkiness of the east course)

A Great Round of Golf!

I fell in love with this course. For a mountain course the fairways are surprisingly wide and forgiving. I found the hills challenging but playable. Fairways and greens were in great shape. I can't wait to return and play again.

Course was good and the greens were nice.

The west course is a bit more monotonous than the east, but still provided some great golf and at an extremely fair price. The staff were kind, unlike some golf course staff. The range was decent, but it provided all the practice I needed.

Pocono Manor West

You cant beat this course for the price! I have played both the East and the West course. I like the West because it is longer and I find the East to be more challenging because its has more hills. Try them both, they are both fun to play!

Excellent mountain course

One of our favorite mountain courses...lots of space on the fairways, but plenty of trees & rough on the sides. Very few sand bunkers, but lots of mounds with tall grasses that gobble up your ball if you hit them. Nice amenities, nice staff, beautiful hotel if you'd like to stay over.
