The Inn At Pocono Manor - East Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Inn at Pocono Manor offers two championship golf courses, conveniently located less than two hours from New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia. Surrounded by the beauty of the Poconos, the inn has earned a spot on the National Registry of Historic Places. George Fazio designed the West Course, and the East Course was Donald Ross' creation. The East Course, the original layout, has hosted a number of legendary players, including Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead, since 1912. Ross carefully sculpted the mountainous landscape to create a course that is both challenging and memorable. It is shorter and tighter than the other course but they are equal in level of difficulty. The golf course is defined by the interesting water hazards that come into play on several holes, but the scenic views are also a draw.

Course Condition
The rain has definitely helped to soften up the fairways and greens. But the cart paths are atrocious.
Phenomenal old-style course
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.
Good course friendly staff
Recently played there course condition were good greens played fast. The only I was disappointed about no golf beverage cart was there that day and bar was closed. It's a shame they lose so much revenue . They need to hire the proper people to run the food and beverage.
Good value
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 .
Could have been better
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 fun course
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!
