Length 6965 yards
Slope 144
Rating 74.5

Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club boasts 27 holes of championship golf that are played in three 18-hole combinations. The three different nines are natural named Blue, Ridge, and Trail. Tucked away in the hills of northeastern Pennsylvania, the golf courses provide stunning scenery and views. All of the holes were carefully carved from the surrounding woodlands and molded into the hillsides. An abundance of trees characterizes the course, giving all of the holes a secluded feel that is further enhanced by the design, which doesn't feature any parallel fairways. The Trail/Blue Course combines the shortest and longest nines but both are considered slightly more challenging than the Ridge nine. The Trail nine possesses two of the four water holes at the club. There is a combination for every skill level and four sets of tees make the nines even more accommodating.

Reframes mountain courses

When I hear mountain courses, I think of thin fairways that lean and your ball will roll to the low side wherever you hit it. However this course reframed me to believe there is hope for mountain courses. This course is well maintained with ample space to make shots. Sand bunkers that play like sand. Challenging layout and you need to use every club in your bag. Staff and amenities are superior to most. Greens, fairways and tee boxes were all in very good condition. A great value for the price, you will not leave disappointed.

Staff Was Terrible

The course was okay - the greens were good but the fairway was very chopped up. The staff was overwhelmingly cranky and was snippy about the most trivial issues from the start; they clearly hate their jobs. The course was not worth dealing with the disrespectful crew.

The food was actually really good.

Not for beginners

Fairway is a mile wide but if you tend to slice like me and it goes into another. Goodluck finding your ball.

Great course, terrible pace of play

I really enjoyed the course, in great condition, layout and everything else but the pace of play was brutal. We waited in virtually every home unfortunately.

Muddy

Yes, we have gotten a lot of rain and I called for course conditions prior to booking. Was told the courses in great shape and when I arrived was told that it was caught path only. So beware if you are not looking to play during cartpath only conditions. Otherwise, the course is absolutely beautiful.

Very nice and scenic course except …

The tee boxes and greens in great shape. The course is very scenic and saw two deer during my round. Nice layout and many sets of tees to play from to match a playersdistance off tee and skill level. The negative were course conditions playing on a Monday. The course was very wet and muddy in many spots. The rough and area around the greens on 4-5 holes was a big factor and I found room 8 balls without really looking for them. I would recommend this course highly in dry conditions. Very scenic and nice layout. I would not play it early morning after rainy days, it doesn’t seem to drain well and takes away from the golf experience there
