About this course

Lehman Golf Club in Dallas, Pennsylvania, was designed by Samuel G. Spencer, a golf architect active in the early-to-mid twentieth century. Spencer's work reflected the strategic design principles of his era, emphasizing shot-making and course management over sheer length. The club's layout takes advantage of the rolling terrain typical of northeastern Pennsylvania, with routing that works naturally through the landscape rather than imposing artificial drama. The course occupies a setting characteristic of the region: wooded acreage with elevation changes that create visual interest and tactical variety from tee to green. Spencer's design likely incorporates the natural contours to define fairways and position hazards, encouraging players to think their way around the course. The holes would reflect the architect's preference for strategic bunkering and green complexes that reward precision and penalize careless approach play. Lehman Golf Club has maintained its standing as a private club in the Dallas area, serving as a community hub for golf in Luzerne County. The membership character and traditions reflect the club's long history as a regional institution. While the course may not have hosted major professional tournaments, it represents the solid, playable design philosophy that characterized Spencer's body of work—courses built to challenge and satisfy serious golfers without excessive gimmickry.

Getting there

# Getting There

Lehman Golf Club sits in the quiet countryside of northeastern Pennsylvania, roughly two hours northeast of Philadelphia International Airport (PHL), making it an accessible retreat for East Coast travelers seeking refuge from urban sprawl. The drive from PHL traces a gentle arc through the rolling farmland and forested ridges of the Pocono region, transitioning from interstate efficiency to quieter state routes that wind through small towns and past working agricultural land before arriving at the club's discreet entrance. For those flying private, Pocono Mountains Municipal Airport (PSB) lies within thirty minutes and offers a more intimate arrival into the region's understated elegance. The final miles unfold through a landscape of deep greens and gentle elevation changes - the architectural and natural setting that defines this corner of Pennsylvania - delivering you to a club designed to feel as much a part of its terrain as the forests and meadows surrounding it.
