“Many elevation changes on this golf course with some unique holes, including a par 3 teeing off towards the original Hershey mansion. Greens are small with lots of movement on them which provides a challenge. Tee to green, not very difficult, but a fun course to play if you are in the area."

“Both a country club and public access resort course which is a well conditioned quick receptive greens and a fun piece of property."

“The course, with a history that includes the 1940 PGA Championship, offers the golfer a very nice experience. As you make your way around the course, there are constant reminders of the course's link with the Hershey Corporation, from the logo to the benches remembering Milton Hershey and others. The front nine has several holes that are different, grabbing the golfer's interest with dog leg rights and lefts and a drive-able Par 4, if you are willing to take the risk. Always stay below the hole. Greens get fast as you race past the hole. Conditions were nice and the staff were very helpful."

“Fun older course with small greens and lots of contours. Uses the hilly terrain very well."

“This is a great course for the money in the Harrisburg, PA area. The conditioning is great and the course has a great layout. The signature hole 5 plays to a green just in front of the Milton Hershey estate."
