Pocono Hills Golf Course
About
Surrounded by the Pocono Mountains, the Pocono Hills Golf Course (formerly Fernwood Resort & Country Club) was carefully carved from wooded hillsides. Condos and other residences were later built near the golf course and although they are situated quite close, the round is still enjoyable. The layout is tight with narrow fairways that are lined with trees. The front nine is easier than the back where more dramatic elevation changes come into play. Many of the greens have elevations of over 50 feet, making approach shots a formidable test. There are also a number of tricky doglegs that are practically 90 degree turns. The layout rewards straight, accurate drives and the greens putt fast and true. There are a number of challenging holes, especially the 10th and 14th, but overall Pocono Hills Golf Course is approachable enough for all skill levels.

Quaint little mountain course. On the short side but challenging due to undulating hills and fairways and many holes are a bit tight and guarded. Staff was super courteous but no warm up area. Super affordable and greens and fairways are in great shape. I wish they would mow the mound on 10 but I guess it’s part of the charm and a brutal penalty if you do t get up. Enjoy ⛳️
Blind shot
A good test if u never been there. A lot of blind shot. Go for it or play it safe like me.
Course was in very good shape. Half the holes are fairly easy. The other half are challenging with narrow fairways.
Great day!
Course was in excellent shape, the weather was great, and there was nobody in front of me for most of my round. Coupled with a great hot deal rate, it couldn’t have been better!
Very enjoyable round
The course is in great condition, just one soggy hole. Pace of play was right on, staff was extra nice and helpful.
Slowest round of golf ever
We were waiting easily 15 minute or more at every t box. The group in front of us quit at hole 10. The group behind us quit at 14. We quit at 15. There were no course officials or rangers moving things along. Was terrible.
Enjoyable Poconos golf!
Fairways and greens were in good shape. Played 18 holes in just over 3 hours. The course isn’t long, but it is tight and there are plenty of holes that can add some strokes to your score. Price for a Saturday AM combined with course conditions made for a great deal!
