I know it is early in the season but the course was in terrible condition. The tee boxes were bare, hardly any grass on them. The fairways were even worse than that. I had to move my ball to the nearest tuft of grass so I wasn't hitting off of bare rocky ground. The sand traps looked like they haven't been raked all year and several of them were filled with stones, leaves and twigs. The greens had been recently aerated and were hairy and sooo slooow! I won't be playing there again!

We haven't had any rainfall for quite some time, So the course was pretty dried out. It was still very playable considering the dry weather.

For how dry it has been lately the course was in very good shape. The greens were great, the bunkers nicely raked, and the rest of the course was very nice considering the dry weather, One of the best courses in the area.

It's a decent course which is steadily being improved back to where it once was. The greens are nice as are the fairways. The sand traps are so-so. The main problem is the roots of the trees which are growing above the ground in many places. Because of this several cart paths are kind of bumpy. If our ball lands within these roots we just take relief without penalty, no sense hurting yourself or ruining your clubs. All in all the course is well worth the price to play.

I play many of the public courses in the Pocono Mountains and I must say this is one of the most challenging layouts. It is a hilly terrain with some doglegs, uphill and downhill holes. there are several wetlands throughout and an average amount of sand traps. The fairways are a nice width but veer off right or left and you are in the woods with no shot out. The greens are always in nice shape but not very fast. It's a tricky course but not quirky, and no two holes are the same. It's fun to play and a good test.
