| Mount Airy Lodge -- Best Course in NE PA |
| Review by: kyle westervelt |
This course is tough dont let the intro fool you..first hole is a nightmare second shot if you havent played there before so be sure to ask the old guy in the hat who gives you the ticket how to play the first hole...knowledge and shot placement are key to this course...the 18 best is very hard to decipher...but the course is beautiful and very challenging...you will love the large greens..it will make you feel like your jeff maggert..but the greens are large and hard to read making you feel much like retief goosen on the 18th at the us open a few years back...the hotel shut down becuase it was stuck in the 70's but this course is as good as it gets in the POCS..enjoy..you wont break 40 on the front nine.. |

I showed up as a single on a Saturday in July at about 10:00 a.m. I was sent out within 10 minutes, and played 18 in about 3 1/2 hours. The course was in generally good shape. The layout is a bit of a neighborhood course, winding through some townhomes, and with several street crossings between holes. I never like this sort of hole to hole distance, but it wasn't too bad. I think the traps and landscaping could be improved quite a bit. There are some long par 4's and testy par 3's for the average golfer. I played the tips, as a 7 handicapper, and shot an 80. Typically, I'd say that's about a fair course. With some improved asthetics, I think this could be a nice course. Many of the holes, considered on their own, are nice holes. All in all, I'll call it a 3 out of 5 stars because it's better than all those cow pasture courses out there.
