A drive worth
taking, every time.
Closer than you'd think.
Three highways feed the Poconos: I-84, I-380, and I-380 again coming the other way. From the East Coast, you can be on the first tee by 9 if you leave at 7.
Dress like you belong here.
We're a public course in the Poconos, not Augusta. The dress code exists to keep the playing experience tidy for everyone, not to make you change clothes at the pro shop counter.
Yes, please.
Standard golf attire. If you've teed it up at any public course in the last decade, your closet already complies.

It's enough time to roll a few putts on the practice green and meet your group at the first tee with a clear head. Here's how the first half hour goes.
