Beautiful scenery, great staff. At 6400 yards from white tees, course is on the long side for average golfer. Greens small and were not holding approach shots. Had several soft pitches hit middle of green and bounce off back.

GREAT PLAY

I played this morning... Perfect weather... Course was plush...18 holes in 3:20 minutes with a 9:10 AM Tee-Time. That is unheard of on a Saturday morning. Staff was friendly and welcoming. I would reccomend playing...

Different mountain course

Played many courses in the Poconos, this one was definitely not a usual course for this area. No real elevation changes. Played in late November and the fairways and greens were in good condition.

Open fairways and small greens. Speaking of, the greens were really difficult. Rarely had a straight putt. Lots of sand traps around the green, they were hard but were raked.

Staff was really nice. There was no amenities available. No food, snacks or beverages. I understand COVID procedure but I couldn’t believe they had nothing available.

One major gripe was there was a group of 5 allowed to tee off directly in front of my twosome. There was no ranger to speed up play. We waited every single tee until 16 when we finally were able to play through.

Aside from that, solid course and I’d play again in warmer weather.

Hidden Gem

Great course, setting, design, and experience. Walk into another Century when you play this course and that is not a bad thing. It was late fall and the tee boxes were very choppy, but a good experience nonetheless

Perfect weather.

The weather has been perfect, which is strange for early November, but we enjoyed playing there for the first time. Yes, the greens are very small and very fast, but everything else was terrific. Will go back.

Course is great for players who like having to "pick" your shot placement

Extremely Foggy, not the courses fault, but added to the fun. After clearing up it was fun and we like having to play the holes where each shot needs to be placed. Greens are small, not a bad thing, its a challenge and who wants to play "Easy" golf. Overall, we enjoyed this course and will be back again to play.
