NEVER PLAY THIS COURSE- WORST GOLF EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE

What a TERRIBLE experience. DO NOT PLAY HERE! I took my father golfing for his birthday today. We arrived and were informed that we would be teamed up with two other guys which was fine with us. After the first couple of holes, the two gentlemen who joined us were struggling a bit, but still maintained a decent pace of play. The nice thing was we dint have a group behind us.
On the fourth hole, the ranger drove by and said we needed to pick up the pace even though we didn't have anyone behind us. As requested we picked up the pace, played ready golf, etc. Nobody behind us the entire time! At the turn, we decided to stop for a hot dog which took about 15 minutes. We proceeded to the back nine. We were on the green and the ranger approached us, still nobody behind us. He was incredibly rude, raised his voice stating that we were holding up the entire course and were 15 minutes behind schedule. We explained that it took fifteen minutes to get a hot dog and there wasn't anyone behind us. He continued to reprimand us saying that we were inconveniencing everyone else on the course, negatively impacting the flow. We then proceeded to the 11th hole and he had some guy, maybe in his early twenties come over and he started on us, saying that he already told us to pick up the pace of play. He also had a very abrasive tone. At this point, we were fed up with them and tired of being treated like garbage. We told them in so many words to let us alone and enjoy our round. He then told me "your done" and was calling the GM. The GM and head golf pro then came out to us on the 12th hole saying that there employees would never act in this manner, essentially telling us that we were making this all up. Long story short, the rangers clearly lacked intelligence, and have no idea how to treat their customers.
If you want to be scolded and interrupted all day by a bunch of rangers with nothing better to do but heckle their customers, than this is the place for you. They ruined me and my fathers round of golf on this birthday. The course is in great shape but the rangers are a joke, and management clearly doesn't have a grip on how they treat their customers. I recommend Blue Ridge trail. Better course, great people, great management, better priced. This is the first time I wrote a review on a golf course because I don't want anyone else to be treated this poorly on a golf course. Again, Stay AWAY! DO NOT PLAY HERE!!!!

So if you were 15 minutes behind the pace of play "4 1/2 hours" at the turn, you were playing at a 5 hour round pace of play. Since you didn't say you were being held up, I assume that it was your play alone that was causing a 5 hour round. While I am surprised that JFN would be that vocal if no one was waiting on you, play faster please. 5 hours with no one in front of you...really?

Early, early season round

Well, it’s a great course. The greens were recently aerated and sanded so it was difficult to putt well. The course was also very mushy with the loads of rain the past few weeks. Nevertheless, it was well worth the shoulder season fee. It’s a very interesting and challenging layout with many elevation changes and beautiful scenery. It is a must play for NAPAers and visitors to the area.

Lost balls

Fall golf is hard here due to all the leaves left în the rough and fairways .
Could not find our balls when hit which caused group behind us to catch us every hole.

A must play in Spring and Summer .

Gonna keep it simple. Beautiful layout but the course was to wet . Lost balls because they plug and you can't find them . Not a course to play when it's cart path only. Will be back to give this track anthor shot in the summer when it dries out.

Best in the region

JFN is a must play . Staff always comes to your car to load up sticks. Pro shop is very well stocked and super friendly. Best practice area with chipping green as well. Very nice starter will try to pair up players. The track is always in great condition beautiful white sand, bunkers .Rounds start off gently, but then toughens up as the round continues with the long par fours and hilly terrain. huge undulated fast greens make putting a real challenge. if you are within an hour or two of this golf course, you have to play it.

Call in advance if there's been rain to check course conditions.

We play this course often it is one of the best courses in the Poconos.
The course is always well maintained, don't let this review stop you from playing this course under dry conditions.
However, this is the first time we played it, after being told that there was a lot of rain during the week.
Tee boxes were flooded, standing water all throughout the course. Car path only. Was told by the starter that they considered closing for the day but did not.
Bottom Line, the course should have been closed.
