Skytop Lodge Golf Course
The classic resort course at historic Skytop Lodge — an 18-hole par 72 through manicured mountain terrain with panoramic Pocono views. Timeless and scenic.
Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania
Three-season mountain golf in the Poconos — and one of the East Coast's great drive-to weekends, barely two hours from both New York and Philadelphia. Play Jack Nicklaus's Great Bear, A.W. Tillinghast's historic 27 holes at Shawnee on an island in the Delaware River, and mountaintop value at Jack Frost, then lean on the resorts — Woodloch, Skytop, Split Rock, Mount Airy — for easy stay-and-play. Add waterfalls, lakes, casinos, and a classic mountain-resort setting, and it's a low-stress group getaway that won't wreck the budget — just plan for spring through fall, since the golf shuts down once the snow flies.
Best time to visit: Late spring through fall — May to October, best in summer and early fall.

A dramatic mountain layout carved through the Pocono forest at the Woodloch resort — tight, scenic, and routinely rated among the best courses in Pennsylvania.

A 27-hole resort course at Split Rock in Lake Harmony — three nines through the western Poconos woods, open to guests and the public. Good variety and solid value.

The only Jack Nicklaus design in the Poconos — a semi-private layout with public tee times, winding through wetlands and mountain terrain in Marshalls Creek. The area's marquee round.

A public mountaintop course on the crest of Jack Frost Mountain — big elevation, wide fairways, and sweeping Pocono views. Excellent value and a must-play on any Poconos trip.

A.W. Tillinghast's historic 27-hole course set on an island in the Delaware River — host of the 1938 PGA Championship and a Poconos institution. Classic, walkable, and steeped in history.

The resort course at Mount Airy Casino in Mount Pocono — a well-conditioned, playable public 18 that pairs easily with a night at the casino.
