Trail/Blue at Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club
Rating Snapshot
About
Blue Ridge Trail Golf Club boasts 27 holes of championship golf that are played in three 18-hole combinations. The three different nines are natural named Blue, Ridge, and Trail. Tucked away in the hills of northeastern Pennsylvania, the golf courses provide stunning scenery and views. All of the holes were carefully carved from the surrounding woodlands and molded into the hillsides. An abundance of trees characterizes the course, giving all of the holes a secluded feel that is further enhanced by the design, which doesn't feature any parallel fairways. The Trail/Blue Course combines the shortest and longest nines but both are considered slightly more challenging than the Ridge nine. The Trail nine possesses two of the four water holes at the club. There is a combination for every skill level and four sets of tees make the nines even more accommodating.

Best public course around!
I think that this is the nicest public course in the Wilkes-Barre / Scranton area. The condition of this course is top notch. The fairways are always nice and the greens are pure. Most of the holes have nice wide fairways. Lots of hazards to challenge more experienced players. 27 holes means you're not going to get bored of the same 18. And compared to Philly and the suburbs what they charge here is a steal.
3” of Rain but still playable
The course received 3” of rain but the fairways and first cut of rough were still very playable. I took relief from casual water only twice the whole round. Of course, it played longer because there was no roll on the fairways. The greens had just been cored and sanded, so, they were slow.
Must play this course
Great overall even if start of season and all the rain. It was obviously cart path only, but not a problem. A no brainer at that price ! Great layout fun to play and if you want, a tough challenge…
Beautiful Course
It was still a little early in the season, not many leaves on trees yet, but the course was in good shape.
Even though it’s and hour and 45 minute drive for me I look forward to playing it again
BRT Overview
Acquired a tee time and paid online the night before playing. Was paired with 3 regulars. Great guys, LOVE this 27 hole course and all it offers. Grass practice range, putting green and gps yardage equipped carts. Challenging for all levels and gorgeous ambling layout. Ridiculously amazing value (shhhh, it's a hidden treasure).
15,347 steps
If the cart path was on left I hit it to the right, if on the right I hit to the left side or so it seemed. I'll try to play next time in drier conditions. That said, I still love this fair but challenging course. The greens were punched several weeks ago and they are still a little bumpy.
Always a solid option in the area
The course is managed very well and the pace is usually very good. This course is always a solid option for me when in the area. Conditions are good and staff is friendly. Price is very good.
Tough putting with greens punched
I know they have to be punched, I know it's early in the season but if you make a 3-4 footer it's a miracle.
Over Booked - Commercials in Carts
Course was way over booked and the commercials in the golf carts where very annoying.
End of season
Last round of season , great condition on a really beautiful course. Great design and lots of fun!
Awesome golf course
Love playing this course. Always in great shape and the staff is always very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this course to anyone who likes a well kept golf course.
