$36 (cart included), played on Tuesday, July 2012 at 10am

This is an update of my 2008 ranking. Our seniors group played here 7-17-12 for $39, which is an excellent price for this quality course. Conditions were superb, with the exception of the greens, which putted a little slowly. That may have been a conscious decision by the greenskeeper, as the temperatures have been pushing 100 degrees for the last several days. Of particular note was the Ranger making frequent stops with cold water and ice, and taking a moment to chat with each player to ensure they were hydrating. Very good practice, not only for the courtesy, but also the safety considerations: one which other courses would do well to emulate. Course is located in one of the last dry townships in PA, but they are very gracious about allowing outside beverages, and even keeping them refrigerated while we were playing. Nice touch. Our group really likes Iron Forge, but it's a pretty good hike for most of us, so twice a year is about our limit. We highly recommend!

Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
