Course Highlights
Shannondell's challenging doglegs, thick rough, and well-maintained fairways and greens consistently reward golfers who return for its scenic layout. Friendly staff, smooth pace of play, and a well-regarded restaurant make it a favorite worth revisiting.

Rating 69.9

The Club at Shannondell, formerly known as George Washington Golf Course, has been ranked by Golf Digest as one of the "25 Best Golf Courses in Pennsylvania" and it's also on their list of "Best Places to Play." From the back tees, the course is just over 6,100 yards. Put away your driver because there won't be many chances to grip it and rip it on this course. It's a seemingly mild layout with wide, gently rolling fairways that appear forgiving, but the strategically placed hazards along the pitched greens demand well placed shots. The cut of the rough is also higher and there are several doglegs, placing even further emphasis on accuracy. Proper club selection is also very important on this golf course. The Club at Shannondell is a fun but fair test for players of all skill levels.

Dog leg city

Way too many dog legs. Course was in decent shape all things considered after the crazy winter we had. It’s just not a fun course to play.

Nice course

Played first time , condition was good, greens and fairways good shape same with t box. I played gold while my playing parters played white. We played 18 without delay. Course is not super long and its tight to other fairways but they made the best of it.

Pleasantly Surprised

My first time at Shannondell and I will for sure be going back! The course was challenging, but also forgiving! The fairways, greens, and tee boxes were in excellent condition. Staff was incredibly friendly and made me feel at home! Will be coming back to play more rounds and better my last score
