White at The Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort

The White Course at Shawnee Inn and Golf Resort occupies a scenic stretch of land along the Delaware River in northeastern Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains region. A.W. Tillinghast designed the original layout in the 1910s during his prolific early career, establishing Shawnee as one of the era's notable resort destinations. Bill Diddel later contributed modifications to the course, though the routing retains much of Tillinghast's strategic character across rolling terrain that moves between riverside holes and elevated positions offering views of the surrounding valley.

The course plays through a mix of mature trees and open corridors, with the Delaware River influencing several holes along the property's eastern boundary. Tillinghast's design philosophy of strategic options and natural hazard placement remains evident in the bunkering patterns and green complexes, though the course has evolved through decades of resort play and periodic updates. The terrain provides moderate elevation changes that add visual interest and affect club selection without requiring extreme uphill or downhill shots.

Shawnee has served as a recreational golf destination for over a century, drawing visitors to the Poconos region for its combination of golf and resort amenities. The course operates as part of the broader Shawnee Inn property, which includes lodging and dining facilities that maintain the area's tradition as a getaway location within driving distance of major northeastern cities. The White Course represents one of several golf options at the resort complex.
