Length 6965 yards

Rating 74.5

Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club boasts 27 holes of championship golf that are played in three 18-hole combinations. The three different nines are natural named Blue, Ridge, and Trail. Tucked away in the hills of northeastern Pennsylvania, the golf courses provide stunning scenery and views. All of the holes were carefully carved from the surrounding woodlands and molded into the hillsides. An abundance of trees characterizes the course, giving all of the holes a secluded feel that is further enhanced by the design, which doesn't feature any parallel fairways. The Trail/Blue Course combines the shortest and longest nines but both are considered slightly more challenging than the Ridge nine. The Trail nine possesses two of the four water holes at the club. There is a combination for every skill level and four sets of tees make the nines even more accommodating.

Great golf and outstanding value

We played the Blue and Ridge 9s. The Blue was in far better condition. With the high heat and lack of rain, all public courses are struggling with course conditions. Blue Ridge Trail is normally immaculate and right now I would call it good conditions but off it's normal. The greens were spongy in places. The views are lovely and the staff is friendly and helpful. Certainly an amazing value with rates far below the norm. Will be coming back for sure.

Always an enjoyable round at Blue Ridge

Was able to get a very good GolfNow deal for a 10:30 tee time and was able to use some of my rewards also. We were originally scheduled to play Trail then Blue but before we went out the starter found out Trail was a little backed up. He then just sent us out on Blue which was open a little before tee time. After Blue, Trail had cleared so they sent us there. Course was in good shape considering the recent weather and due to the staff's helpful, flexible scheduling, we had a very enjoyable round in less than 3.5 hours. These guys really know there business.

Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club

I was very happy that I decided to play here. Beautiful course with 3 separate 9 hole courses. The course is very scenic and offers a great challenge. The staff is very friendly and is very buttoned up at the first tee. It took 5 hours to play 18 which was the only negative. I wish a Ranger had been watching the slow play in front of us. I will play this course again when I'm back in the area.
