JFN has a very interesting layout, wider fairways than most Pocono courses, big undulating greens where angle to the pin can make a big difference. Greens were on the speedy side but not super fast. Breaks seem to read true. Some fairways not in the best condition, but everything else was. Staff was professional and friendly. Odd that a course of this quality has a small, temporary-looking clubhouse and slag heaps around the parking lot. Longish and challenging, but fair.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
