One of my favorite courses

Speedy greens, some false fronts and apron runoffs, elevation changes. Lots of variety to the layout.

Teebox choices provide the level of challenge you want. Don't go too far back the first time!

you must play here if you love golf

Played here on 4/17.. Have been coming here for years and its always a treat.. While its in the middle of nowhere in farm country its worth the drive.. As another rater said,,,if this course was located in civilization... it would be at least twice the price to play.
You will hit every club in the bag on this course... The greens were bumpy on this day but much had to do with the time of year In season they will normally roll smoother. The rest of the course was in fine shape. You will face 2 incredible par 3's on this course.. The par 3 12th is 190yd shot over water and stone barrier that is as tough a shot as you will find. The downhill 188yd 8th hole over a pond is another heroic shot. Each 9 ends with a great par 5. The 18th has water everywhere and is a truly memorable finisher. I got a 10 dollar rate rate to play here last week too from golfnow .com also.

tough course due to the hilly terrain

I enjoyed playing this course and for $ 29 it was worth it which included the cart. It was a bit far out to get to. The greens rolled nice and the fairways were in good shape especially for mid April in PA. My only complaint is that the greens can be a bit unfair due to some tough pin placements because the greens had alot of sloe in them

A little hilly for my taste

Took this 66 mile roadtrip on a nice spring day. I do like a link-style course but don't much care for all the peaks and valleys. and the greens were just aireated a short time ago so putting was somewhat at a premium. Overall, the course was in good shape for being early in the season. Might come back in the fall if the price is right.

Many interesting holes

This is a great course. It's fairly open, but still quite challenging. It's a hilly course, with some water holes. All in all it was very enjoyable.

great course layout and conditions.

Pilgrims Oak would cost you double if situated near civilization but since it's tucked away in Amish farmland a short drive reveals a wonderful course at a reasonable fee. The course is wide open but poses challenges in the form of water , terrain and bunkers. Conditions have always been favorable , even in winter. After you enjoy Pilgrims your next outing should be Tanglewood manor which is 5 mi. down the road and equally enjoyable. If part of your game is refreshments then BYOB cause both courses are dry. Just sayin'....

Challenging, well taken care of course

I play this course often and it is fantastic. Very interesting and challenging holes, and the greens roll true and have plenty of undulations.
