About

Type Public
Par 72
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.

Slow Painful Day

My buddy and myself have played here for years and always enjoyed it, until this last time. First we get paired up with a Husband and Wife (Super Seniors) they were very nice by the way. But my buddy and myself both carry a single digit handicap. So our foursome is playing from three sets of tees on every hole!!! I told the starter all of this information at the start and they could have cared less...To but the topping on the cake!! This 27 hole facility was sending all play off of the same nine holes, which meant that each hole was seriously taking 20 minutes to play. Needless to say that I won't be back for a while and think that this facility needs to practice some course management!! After this round I realize why our great game is getting so much critism and loosing players!!

Beautiful course!!!!!!

First time I ever golf blue ridge and it was something out of a magazine. Well maintained and very friendly staff. GPS in carts was awesome, not 100% correct but gave a good estimate. Played all 27 holes and I will make this course one of my weekly stops.

Nice tract.

This is a "target" golf course, with defined landing areas for your tee shot on most holes. Greens were well maintained, except that they were plugged some weeks ago and have not yet recovered.

I would like a hole or two without the landing area. Its nice to pull out the driver and have at it. Not going to do that here.

One of my favorite courses in the region. We play here 3-4 times per season.

This is one of the best daily fee courses in the state of PA. The layout is challenging, the setting is beautiful, and the quality of the turf is outstanding. This course has rolling fairways with a variation of changes in elevation. The greens are nicely contoured without being brutal. The breaks are subtle and reading them is part of the challenge. The par fives are especially entertaining to play with multiple choices in strategy and routes to the pin available for the average player. The course is fair because it only really penalizes the truly poor shots. If you are making good contact with the ball, bogeys will be easy, but par or better will require solid play.

Must play in NE Pennsylvania!

I play this course every time I come through Wilkes-Barre area. This course is a steal for <$50. Three nines, all equally beautiful and well maintained. Blue Ridge Trail is a must play!

Hidden Gem!

As far as public courses in this area go, this place is top notch. They have 27 well manicured holes, electric carts, and high quality GPS in all carts. This is really a great course in comparison to any, but is also very cost-effective for those on a budget.

Fantastic Course/Layout, great price, a bit out of the way

I've been playing this course for about 5 years now, and it never gets old. With 3 sets of 9, challenging forced-carries on many holes, nice green complexes and varied tees; this course has so much to offer. The back 9 greens (blue course) were punched not too long ago so putting wasn't too great but, overall the course was in very good condition given the long winter. If you get out this way (and it IS a ways off the beaten track), you have to play this course.

All and all great place to play

Course was in good shape, greens rolled nicely. The factthatthey have 3 different 9 hole courses and gps on the cart really helps to keep pace of play moving. All and all, great place to play.

nice course - very long round

The booking time we got was the first tee time after a large outing teed off. The result was a 6.5 hr round, probably the longest in my life. This was only my second booking with GolfNow - I hope this is not typical

Disappointing

Course was very scenic... Greens were in horrible shape... Fairways needed cutting... Sand in bunkers was more rock than fine sand. If that was not bad enough, the starter let a group of SIX on the course . When contacted, the starter came out and told us "They said they will pick it up." Huh? So turned a 2 hour nine holes into 3.5 hours... Never again!
