Olde Homestead Golf Club's Par-3 course sits in New Tripoli, a small community in Lehigh County in Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley region. The facility was designed by Jim Blaukovitch, a regional architect who has worked on several courses in eastern Pennsylvania. The par-3 layout serves as a complement to the club's regulation course, offering a shorter alternative for practice, instruction, or quicker rounds. Par-3 courses in this part of Pennsylvania typically occupy rolling terrain characteristic of the region's agricultural landscape, with elevation changes that add variety to what might otherwise be straightforward short-hole play. These layouts often function as family-friendly options or training grounds for developing players, though they can challenge accomplished golfers when hole lengths stretch beyond wedge distance and greens demand precision. The New Tripoli area lies in the transition zone between the Lehigh Valley's more developed eastern sections and the rural farmland extending toward the Blue Mountain ridge. Courses here tend to reflect a more relaxed, community-oriented atmosphere than the busier facilities closer to Allentown or Bethlehem. The par-3 format allows for accessible golf in a region where the sport has deep recreational roots among local populations, and where shorter courses have long served as entry points to the game.
