About Pocono Manor Resort & Spa

Life changed at Pocono Manor on Nov. 1, 2019, when a fire ripped through the historic inn, causing significant damage that's led to an ongoing closure. Although there are plans to renovate and rebuild, only the golf course is currently open. Currently, golfers looking to stay and play the historic course can book accommodations at nearby partner properties through the resort website. There is food available in the clubhouse.

50% of greens dried out and need work

Great value. Paid only $10 for 18 holes, but now I know why. At least 50% of the greens are dried out and need work. How hard is it to keep the greens watered and take care of them? The rest of the course was not dried out so why should the greens be that way? The course could be a decent course for the Poconos with some attention.

I played in free with my son.

I had a great opportunity for playing golf in free. This course is good condition, but there was not the information of each hole.

Avoid at all costs

Just returned home after a trip to the poconos where we played a round a pocono manor east. I don't have anything positive to say and I'm not sure what the other reviewers are talking about but this course is an absolute joke. The conditions of the fairways and greens make it completely unplayable. I'm not exaggerating when I say that there wasn't grass on the greens. There wasn't even dirt on a few. The greens were a flat surface of hardened mud with a cup sticking out. An absolute disgrace that they charge people money to play here and I was embarassed that I even booked the round. It's a shame because the course probably was nice 20 years ago but I'm not lying when I tell you that they couldn't pay me to come back. How do you putt over a sandlot?!? Hands down the worst course I've ever seen. Sorry pocono manor, but it seems as if you won't be in operation much longer.

Value priced, but not much else

Not particularly interesting, or well groomed. Greens - OK, fairways not irrigated so thin and REAL hard, tee boxes poor

Needs Attention

Very poor condition. Tees,fairway,rough,greens all in poor condition some to the point of being a joke. No markers at all on tees as to distance w/several obviously wrong(my wife & I played & on holes where the card showed 30 yds between men & ladies tees,you could walk off 60 yds & visa versa so one of the 2 was wrong) The starter put a 5some ahead of us.

The course is long and challenging, and FUN!!!!

The course is long and challenging, course would be too difficult for average Golfers if there were sand bunkers, as there are no bunkers on the course.

Great for inexpensive place to play.

The course is wide open and somewhat bland - no traps/hazards. Disappointing that there are no placards at the tee boxes with yardage and hole diagram, and skimpy on the ball washers. Overall though, the afternoon hot deal makes it a great opportunity to practice.

The course has an interesting layout but needs some attention.

We played on Sunday in just under four hours. Course design on the East is interesting but some of the cart paths are rough, some of the greens are in deep trouble, and some of the tee boxes were unkempt. It was wet and the greens held very well, the speed was average. Most of the lies I got were good and none had to be relieved for course condition (except on the green). We found the staff to be reasonably courteous and accommodating. It is thankfully cooler there but there were some mosquitoes so bring repellent. We enjoyed our experience and will be back.

Disgraceful to not enforce Pace of Play on this great and historic golf course.

5 hour round, not good and preventable. There were multiple and significant violations of, and lack of enforcement of, some fundamentals of the USGA Rules of Golf by golfers in front. Rule breaches included pace of play, safety and etiquette. This prompted a required phone call to the Pro Shop for assistance. The first call (hole 12) produced no effective results and we saw no Golf Ranger. The second call (hole 13) began with an unusual failure/refusal to understand what "...hole number thirteen on the West Course..." meant, as I was letting them know where our current location was on the course. Again, no effective results and we saw no Golf Ranger.

Fix this problem and this historic course would make for a great round of golf.

Time of Play was Too Long.

The fairways were nice but some of the Greens needed serious work. The Starter needed to get people moving. too may backups on the tees. Not the best course for Fast Play.

Excellent value

The course is in average shape, some tee boxes could use some attention. The staff was friendly, able to get right out enjoying the views. I would play this course again.

Good course that seemed well maintained. Greens were extremely slow. Somewhat long and very few sand traps which would have made it more interesting

This is a long course with very slow greens the day I played. Somewhat boring with little water and very few sand traps. Worth the great price on golfnow though.
