Pocono Manor Resort & Spa

East course #7 par 3 closed for rework off green. Two other greens had damage but overall course was in good condition.

Great value. Played in under 4 hrs. Staff very helpful.

pros: cheap rate, easy to find, no parallel fairways
cons: no short holes, no hazards, slow poana greens

Played the east course and enjoyed it. The tees and fairways are in good condition.There was only one green that was not up to par but I would recommend it.

I played on 06/01/2013 and Memorial weekend. 5 hours for memorial weekend and 4 1/2 hours this week. Course is great itself, but needed maintenance.
1. Needed starter and ranger to up keep flow.
2. Needed CLEANUP everywhere garbage dump specially afternoon in tee box.
3. Golf now check in allowed only 10 minutes before starting tee time even we wait one hour both times. needed time to prepare before tee time.
4. They close all buildings before end of player return to club, therefore no where to clean after golf(7:00PM - while sun is high up).
5. Ruff was so high and difficult to find a ball. also, green was so slow with so much fallen leaves.
6. Can not complained for Golfnow rate, but it can be better to improve staff, procedure and maintenance.

I think that still it is worth course(West) with Golfnow rate and recommendable for 7100 yard.

This course features extremely varied elevations - it would be impossible to walk. I paid $25 for a cart and 18 holes and believe that it was worth it. There aren't many hazards except for a few holes. I'd say that about 14 of the holes were in very good shape, the remaining 4 could use some work. The staff was friendly and the pace of place was not a problem. It is also located in a secluded, nice area of the Poconos.

You have two courses to choose from and both of the courses are equally challenging. This is a great place to golf would recommend to anyone!

I got a golf now deal for 25$ at 7:12am on Memorial Day. The course is in good shape, I have played there over 100 times and it is in almost the best shape I have ever seen in 12 years, except for hole #7. They have been working on that green for a few years and still can't seem to get it right. It used to be good 5-10 years ago. Good luck hitting that green anyway, I still haven't figured it out in 12 years. Fairways, Greens and Tee Boxes were in good shape. Cart paths need some maintenance. The driving range is great, the practice putting green is not so great. Pace of play starting around 7:15 was great (4 hours). I have started this course around 11am / noon and it can get pretty slow. One round here last summer took almost 6.5 hours on a Saturday.

All in all, you get a good experience, an above average golf course at a good value.

Fairways and Greens were in good condition but overall maintenance needs to be improved. Grass was tall and balls out of the fairway were sometimes difficult to find. Cart paths in need of replacement/improvement.

there is potential here if staff catered to its needs,not enough bunkers if any that i saw,2or 3 at most.some greens to small to access a 180 to 200 yard second shot.mounds in fairways penalizes a good shot , replace with bunkers a must.cart path very dangerous if raining not enough protection on certain holes.railing or reroute would be alternative.overall cant complain for the price thanx golfnow........

great pace of play , finished round in 3 hours ( we were 2) Wide open fairways but lengthy. IF YOUR NOT A LONG HITTER PLAY THE EAST COURSE

With no traps and no hazards the course plays long and boring. No holes are really noteworthy and the greens were incredibly slow. The fairway was also very high. The only decent part was the fact that the attendant in the pro shop was a really nice guy.
Hopefully, it was just due to the fact that it was early in the season.

Nicely maintained, decent greens. Each hole is carved out of tree lined woods with wide open fairways. No traps, no water. no carries.Kind of plain vanilla, except a little lengthy on par 4's and 3's requireing longer than usual approach shots. Good course for early in season or mixed foursomes.

i played with my wife we played in four hours course was in great shape for this time of year end of April could of been a little more female friendly, i played the whites and my wife's tees were only a few yards closer but overall a real nice course

I got an excellent price for greens fees over the Internet, including cart. The course is par-72 and challenging. No sand traps that I can remember but there were sand trap-sized mounds covered in knee-high grass that were more difficult to get out of. Also, little or no water to contend with. Fairways and greens were both in nice shape.

East and West courses have a different feel. East has a few hinkie holes and the west is long and flatter. Play both!

Pocono Manor East is old course, with many short holes that had blind tee shots. The first 6 holes took over an 1 and 3/4 to play.

a donald ross gem in the poconos a must play course with small greens that are great to putt on

The West Course is a fun course to practice your game on. The fairways are wide open, with lots of room between fairway and the woods, and is generally in good shape. The greens are clean, very receptive, but slower than many other courses. No bunkers and no water hazards; just a few mounds with long fescue to avoid.

Because the course is long (6700 yards from the whites) I find I am approaching greens from 190-210 yards on some par 4s. This requires an accurate shot to hit what is usually a smallish green. If you miss the green in regulation, then it's the challenge to get up and down to save par.

This is what I find fun about this course.

The course just seemed too plain no sand traps, no releif nothing challenging to play though.Long straight and plain
