Savor the delights of a stunning natural setting. Sharpen your skills on a championship course rated 4.5 stars by Golf Digest. You may even see deer grazing on the fairways. Nestled in the heart of the mountains, our course meanders through fragrant gardens, stately trees, and glorious vistas of West Mountain.

Naturally, we strive to ensure that our landscaping, fairways and greens are flawlessly maintained. Our Pocono golf course is a mountain-style track that plays over rolling terrain, with wide, tree-lined fairways and small greens that are challenging and above average in speed. Water comes into play on two holes, and there are plenty of strategically placed bunkers to challenge all players.

Our Pocono golf course from the back tees measures 6,656 yards with a slope rating of 133, and forward tees 5,789, and is sloped at a 122 rating. Challenging enough for the serious golfer, it’s still playable enough so it won’t overwhelm the more casual player.

Whatever your level of play, our resident Golf Pro Brian Boyle will be delighted to help you with the game.

Outside play is restricted to guests of the members or guests of the hotel, and is evaluated on a daily basis. For additional information call the club toll free at
