The swamp

You need planks put down so you could get to the greens without walking thru a swamp. Same condition it was in before they got millions from leftover Covid money. Don’t know what they are doing with that money but I use to like playing there before. Not now

minor changes needed

great old course, some strange designed holes, but very playable.. the biggest complaint is with the senior tees. most all of them are right next to and on the same box as the ladies tees.. i play with a foursome of senior men. we dont need to be playing from the ladies tees. why dont they have a box somewhere between the white tees and the ladies.. its not like they dont have the room to put one. other than that it is still a nice place to play.

some of the best greens around

always a challenge but a fair course. the greens have always amazed me how playable they are no matter what season it is. today they were superb! well worth the cost to play there.

nice course conditions but changes needed

some of the white tee boxes need to be moved forward. for the handicap that plays them, its a bit too long a course, especially with the water that comes into play. 16 is not a fair hole for the white tees. and 17, that big tree on the corner on the right has to go!. no need for it there, the hole is long enough and hard enough to reach in two. other than that , its a great course, always in good shape, especially the greens.

a good as golf gets

magnificent course!. very scenic, course in excellent condition, very playable for everyone. except for the day we were there. they had an employee day and the superintendent decided to put all the pins in the worst possible places. thats nice for your family of employees, but for the paying public it was a bit ridiculous. plus they had the blue tees back on the back tee boxes most of the time ,even the whites were moved back. then, they had a full house there and no ranger on the course to help pick up the incredibly slow play. every hole we came to had the same 3 groups playing the same hole. not good. other than that , we enjoyed the course for what it is and hope that next time we come there , the pace will be a lot better. for what they charge to play there, no one should have to put up with that slow a play.

best of both worlds

this course has the best of both worlds for golfers that like two totally different front and back nines.. the front nine is fairly wide open , yet still challenging and the back nine is narrow and more demanding of an accurate shot. the greens are large and fast and required just the right touch. overall, a great course for the rates we paid. well worth the ride to get there.

island golf

you have to love a golf course that takes you out on to an island in the river. just the uniqueness of that is enough to get you to go play here. course is in incredible playing condition for early november. a lot of history at this place too, with the early pros playing here and celebrities like jackie gleason and his fellow entertainers from that era..cant beat the deal i got from golfnow.com!..looking forward to playing here again and again.

nice municipal course

nice course but wish the city had more money to maintain it better . the pro shop and clubhouse are nothing to write home about, but the course is nice.. the price is right if you go through golfnow and they do offer a decent senior price. if they could just come up to date with the clubhouse and amenities it would become something special..

nice break away from the longer courses

the course has an interesting mix of par 3's and 4's..long par 3's but short 4's and 5's..great course to practice on.you dont have to feel intimidated by the monster long holes like some courses have..fun to play and gives you a confident feeling when you come off the course..

great course, scenic views

one of the most wonderful properties in all of the poconos..course is in great shape, price on golfnow.com was incredibly low for the quality of course..only weird thing was the resort guests walking around the course..but would highly recommend to anyone

wheres the grass?

for a well known large pocono resort you would think they would have the money and resources to upkeep the course a bit better. the fairways were lacking grass in many spots, and the sand traps were pathetic and unplayable.. the course is very challenging and the views are incredible, but its a shame to see a beautiful facility so unattended. still very playable other than that and the golfnow price was reasonable compared to other public courses..

you will love this course!

what a great place to play a round of golf..the staff is great and friendly, the practice facility is nice and the course is in great shape. the tall fescue grass is a nice eyecatching feature on the course, but not fun to play out of..keep it in the fairways, they are generous and plush..the whole experience is wonderful and it is a shame that Hershey is going to get rid of it and replace it with a school.. with all the money they have, couldnt they find other land to put their school on? its a beautiful place that is pleasing to the eye and very well maintained for the enviroment..why destroy it?
