Lehigh at Lehigh Country Club

Lehigh Country Club sits in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and features a William S. Flynn design that dates to the 1920s, part of the architect's prolific work across the Mid-Atlantic during that era. Flynn, known for courses like Shinnecock Hills and Philadelphia Cricket Club, brought his characteristic strategic bunkering and thoughtful green complexes to this layout. The course occupies rolling terrain typical of the Lehigh Valley, with mature tree-lined fairways and elevation changes that add variety to the routing.

The club has undertaken restoration work in recent decades to recapture Flynn's original design intent. Ron Forse, a respected restoration architect who has worked extensively on Flynn courses, contributed to these efforts, along with work by MacCurrach Golf. These renovations have focused on restoring bunker shapes, clearing sightlines, and returning greens to their intended contours—common goals when reviving Golden Age designs that had been softened or altered over time.

Lehigh Country Club operates as a private facility serving the Allentown area. The course reflects the character of many established Flynn designs: strategic rather than overly penal, rewarding thoughtful play and course management over pure length. The combination of Flynn's original architecture and careful restoration work has maintained the course's relevance for contemporary membership while preserving the design principles that defined his best work from the 1920s.
