Whitetail at Whitetail Golf Resort

Whitetail Golf Resort sits in the Cumberland Valley of south-central Pennsylvania, near Mercersburg in Franklin County. The course was designed by Rick Robbins, a regional architect known for his work on courses throughout the Mid-Atlantic. The property occupies rolling terrain characteristic of the valley's agricultural landscape, with elevation changes that provide variety in shot-making and strategic options throughout the round.

The routing takes advantage of the natural topography, moving across hillsides and through corridors that create distinct playing corridors. The design incorporates the area's native grasses and hardwood stands, with views extending toward the surrounding ridges that define this part of the valley. Water features appear on several holes, adding both visual interest and strategic consideration to club selection and course management.

Whitetail functions as part of a resort property, serving both destination golfers and regional players. The facility includes practice areas and amenities typical of Pennsylvania mountain resort golf, catering to groups, outings, and leisure rounds. The course reflects the accessible, playable design philosophy common to many daily-fee layouts in the region, offering multiple tee options to accommodate different skill levels while maintaining challenge through green complexes and hazard placement.
