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.

Poor conditions

Cart path in very bad condition. Holes, cracked blacktop. Golf cart jumped when driver pressed gas pedal. Driver had to turn off the engine in order to restart it. Tee boxes in poor shape as well as putting greens.

Super tough greens

First time playing this course, the front 9 punches you in the mouth early with a lot of tricky holes including the famous #7. The greens are tiny and very very fast, mostly because you never really see pin high on them. I’m not saying they’re as difficult as Augusta’s greens or anything cause we know that’s not true but like at Augusta there are very few flat spots and your ball will roll off the green quite a bit if you don’t pick your spots. It is for sure a shot makers course. All in all great course with a lot of history. I will be back

Great along practice course

Course not in the best shape yet. Let’s wait until the season starts to judge.

Play it ONCE...

Very interesting old mountain course. A very long par 4 (490 yds), a very short par 3 (77 yds), otherwise about what you'd expect. Play it once to say you played a Donald Ross course.

HOWEVER, you'll never have a level lie, at least half the tee shots are completely blind (a couple will utterly confuse you), and you'll hit seemingly great tee shots that will run off the fairways into trouble.

I played on a Sunday afternoon, but even at that standard, the pace was horrific.

I was looking forward to playing here a second time (played it two years ago), but it's out of my system and I doubt that I'll do it again.

Ladies

Great course but some of the tee boxes for ladies are in need of improvement..some right in middle of fairway. And the cart paths are in very bad shape! Be careful.

Soggy

I'm surprised that they let us play. There was a light rain when we played, but there was standing water on the majority of the greens with the cups full of water. It wasn't even cart path only. This is an old historic course so I won't give it a terrible review. I'll be back, but in dryer weather.

Fun course

The course has a couple of funky holes, but don’t they all. Most of the holes are out in the woods, no houses and no car traffic so it’s very peaceful,also they must do the ground work early as there’s no mowers or leave blowers to bother

I would play here again and again,very enjoyable!
