GREAT COVE GOLF & RECREATION CLUB

The rolling Appalachian foothills of south-central Pennsylvania provide a dramatic backdrop for this daily-fee gem that plays longer than its yardage suggests thanks to elevation changes that can add or subtract a full club. The layout rewards course management over pure distance, with strategically placed bunkers guarding elevated greens that demand precision on approach shots. What sets this track apart is how designer Ed Ault maximized the natural terrain, creating memorable risk-reward opportunities where local knowledge becomes invaluable after just a few rounds.
