Marjon Course
Lake Ariel, PA, USA


Nestled within the rolling hills of Roaring Brook Township, Marjon Golf Course offers a classic Pennsylvania golfing experience, carved from the Pocono landscape of dense hardwoods and granite outcroppings. Its relatively young age belies the course's commitment to a traditional layout. Designed by a lesser-known regional architect, the course presents a straightforward challenge. Marjon is defined by its tight, tree-lined fairways and subtly contoured greens. It is not a course known for tremendous length, but its design demands strategic shot-making and rewards accuracy over sheer power. Expect doglegs that favor a draw and approaches that require judging distance with meticulous care. Locals, however, will tell you that the real challenge comes from navigating the subtly breaking putts, born from the unseen influence of the glacial bedrock beneath. While Marjon has not hosted any national championships, it remains a popular course for amateur tournaments and club events within the region, drawing a dedicated membership of local enthusiasts. The club fosters a welcoming atmosphere with a robust junior program and active senior leagues. After a round, many players can be found enjoying Marjon's clubhouse for their famed post-round chicken wings, lightly smoked and slathered in a homemade dry rub—a local secret nearly as guarded as the precise break on the 18th green.
