Range End Country Club
Played On 07/18/2021Staff needs hospitality trainging
I enjoy this course. Several par 5 and well maintained. I have never felt the staff was overly congenial. On greeting at the pro shop I told I paid on line. Employee said okay grab a cart and I'll get you started. Not rude but not pleasant. At the turn the restaurant was closed (Sunday at 4) was told to go downstairs. I asked if they had any hot dogs. The employee shook his head and pointed to a machine in the corner. Again not rude but not congenial at all. At no time was I thanked for my business or felt welcomed at all.
Royal Oaks Golf Club
Played On 05/14/2021Good course
This is a good course for the money. Challenging enough to be interesting but not frustrating. Normally in pretty good condition and typically the pace of play isn't bad. Not sure if it is because of Covid or not but I'm looking forward to the bar being re-opened.
Manada Golf Club
Played On 07/21/2020Nice Course
I play this course often because it is close to home. Course is generally in perty good shape. Course is somewhat forgiving but still has enough challenges to keep it interesting. Greens are not crazy fast but not rough either. In general this is a good course for the money and even better if you can find a deal.
Hidden Valley Golf Course
Played On 05/07/2020Good Value Course
Good value course. Nice elevation changes, mostly open forgiving course but still interesting. I will probably stick with this course for deals and early season play. Course was in good shape, accommodating staff. My only real issue with this course is the greens. They have "Poe" grass mixed in with the greens which made them very slow and happy. Maybe could be improved with a closer cut and roll.
Lykens Valley Golf Course
Played On 04/19/2019Nice course for the money
Course was in decent shape for this time of the year. Always thought for a bit more of an investment this could be a much better course. With that said for the money this is a nice course. They do however charge a premium on their food. $3 for a hotdog is a bit much. Also got held up several times with the team in front of us but that's not the courses fault. Maybe could use a ranger during peak times.
Iron Valley Golf Club
Played On 04/07/2019Great Course if you get a deal.
I love playing Iron Valley. I find it challenging especially if played from the Blues. Overall great course in good shape with fast greens. I do think they are a bit overpriced if you pay the full rate. I say this because they charge a premium for play but the course could use some improvements. Also for the price they should have a Ranger to move along play. Last time I played we were a twosome. The foursome ahead of us arrived late but still T off ahead of us and were very slow. We skipped by them at the turn and they never caught up. Was also frustrated that the bar upstairs was closed even though they were already charging full rate. The staff was very courteous and as mentioned I will play there again but think they need to step up their game if they are going to charge a premium.
Blue Mountain View Golf Course
Played On 05/20/2018Novice Course
It had been years since I played Blue Mountain. Let me say this is a nice course if you get a deal. Layout is easy and condition is not bad. With that said it tends to be a "hacker course".
The Pace of Play was ridiculous. I would advise a ranger during peak times. Also need to spend some time on the paths. Thought I was 4 wheeling most of the coarse. A bit more attention to mowing would help as well although I understand due to the amount of rain we have been receiving.
Sunset Golf Course
Played On 05/21/2017Course under construction
I have always enjoyed playing at Sunset; however, due to construction conditions were not the best. This course will be awesome once the construction is completed!!
I would still recommend this course even under construction. The staff is friendly, I would just make certain to get a good deal to make it worth while.
Iron Valley Golf Club
Played On 04/09/2017Challenging and Fun to play
This is a challenging but fun course to play.
Expect a lot of elevation changes, hazards and tiered greens.
In my opinion this course is in the top 5 in central PA.
My only complaint this last time was the hole placement was very difficult especially considering it is the beginning of the season.
Thank you for leaving 4 stars! We love hearing from you and are glad you had a good experience. We would love the opportunity to bump those 4 stars to 5. We hope you will come back soon so we can wow you on your next visit.
