Pocono Manor Resort & Spa

Played this course 10 times . The cart girls very friendly and polite both Sasha and Rebecca are out standing employees and they should recognized for the good work.the gentlemen giving you the golf carts are polite and they keep the golf carts clean and ready to go . Pro shop well stocked and the staff are there to answer any questions you have. I am thinking of joining the course .

The rain has definitely helped to soften up the fairways and greens. But the cart paths are atrocious.

Unlike most Poconos courses, this has generally wide fairways. Very interesting layouts with some blind pins, but all are manageable. Some VERY long par 4s (one was 480 from the whites), but the course was built before these things were standardized. Few sand bunkers, but a lot of original waste areas. Fast Donald Ross domed greens, so be prepared to be confused. Loved it.

Yeah, the cart paths need work, but who cares?

Lastly, I found the course to be several strokes harder than the rating indicates.

Still effective course after 110 years. Donald Ross architecture holds up. Played green tees. First two par 3s are fun and have a very small margin for success ( the other two are also good).

Mounds abound!

Strange layout. I was lucky and was teamed with 3 locals. Having someone guide you around the couse was a big help. Some tee boxes and fairways required maintenance. Greens overall were in great shape, but a few had bare spots near the edging.

A really interesting layout that was well maintained and a joy to play.

The course was in good shape great layout a lot of fun friendly staff
