Ridge/Trail at Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
There are 27 holes of championship golf available at Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club. They are divided into three nines, naturally named Blue, Ridge and Trail, that are played in different 18-hole combinations. The holes have an advantageous setting amidst mountains and trees, offering both privacy and scenery. The setting is made even more peacefully secluded by the fact that there are no parallel fairways throughout the entire golf course. The holes were carefully carved from the forests and hillsides, providing each nine with a different character. With four water holes, the Ridge/Trail combination has the most water of any of the courses. There are also strategically placed bunkers throughout but the towering, mature trees present the most formidable challenges. The course starts off rather gently with the player-friendly Ridge, but becomes progressively more difficult on the back nine.

Best Public Course in NEPA
Best course I've played for the money in quite a few years.
Fun Course
My son and I got pair up with the teaching pro for the round. Ryan was super friendly and very easy to talk with. He even gave use some tips for free.
Cart path only
I know it’s necessary to guard your course, but my playing partner is a senior citizen with breathing problems . It was very difficult for him for cartpath only . Love the course, wishing Mother Nature helps improve conditions soon.
Amazing conditions for March
This course was in amazing condition for March. Greens speed was like. a July tournament
Great course great staff even in March with a weeks worth of rain the course is playable and looking great
THE COURSE ALL BE IT DAMP FROM RAIN DAY BEFORE, WAS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. KUDOS B.R.T. !!!!
Fantastic course, price, and conditions
Played on a cool Friday, and the pace was fast. Never waited on a tee.
Greens and tee boxes were in great shape. Probably the best I've played in the Poconos this year. It's also an interesting course. Very good design, but not particularly long.
Given the quality of the course (and GPS in the carts), the price is really good. I'd play here regularly, but it's a long drive for me. Overall, an excellent day.
Beatiful Fall Outing
Booked a lee time the morning of my round, Tuesday 10/24/23 Just two of us and no other golfers were added to our group! There was a foursome in front of us who could have moved a little faster. We didn't let it ruin our day. The started got us out before our tee time. She was very pleasant, thanks!
I always enjoy paying Blue Ridge Trail. Great staff, great course, and for me great weather every time.
Great despite rain
A very nice course. I play here once a year, meeting a friend halfway. We each drive 3 hours, and we played Jack Frost the afternoon before. They were running a tournament, but with 27 holes still had room for us. We each donated $20 after they told us the tournament raised money for veterans to spend time at a camp about an hour away. Sounded like money well spent. It poured rain for a few holes and the carts immediately informed us it was cart path only, which made plenty of sense. Highly recommend this course.
Outstanding value!
My wife and I are recently retired and are doing a 50 state golf challenge. We are so glad we chose Blue Ridge Trail for our PA course. By far the best value of any we have played. Very nicely laid out course with great turf conditions all around. Greens were a little tough to read but true and just the right quickness. Staff was very friendly and the philly cheese steak sandwich was outstanding. Highky recommend and hope to be able to play it again on our next trip through the area.
KM review
Played 2 of the 3 courses. Beautiful golf course and in excellent condition. Carts have GPS screens.. many traps and hazards. Very scenic.
BRT delivers
Anyone who lives within 30 minutes of BRT should play this course once a week. I drive ~1.5 hours to play here, and gladly do so. Its a treat to golf this track, though in the 4xs I've done so, I haven't been able to play the Trail course. The Pro shop said they got 0.7" of rain the night before my round. The course drains beautifully. A little squishy in places, but acceptable. No faking it with ball striking. If you didn't make ball contact first, you got immediate feedback. The staff is friendly and accommodating. An overall enjoyable experience.
Nice Conditions
Course was in great shape. Staff was friendly and helpful.
