It's not everyday you can play on a scenic mountain course built in the 1920s that hosted a major tournament played by many legendary golfers. That's what you get at The Water Gap Country Club, the historic course in the Delaware Water Gap that was the site of the Eastern Open in the 1920s and retains its historic charm today.

The links style course, designed by Robert White, the first president of the PGA, is extremely hilly. It's not very long, but the hills produce many blind shots, with water on five holes and bunkers throughout that make it a real shotmakers course. There are clear landing areas amidst the hills, so you'll have the opportunity for some big drives, with clean approach shots to the undulating greens. The rolling greens are fast, but true, so you can sink a few putts if you hit them straight.

The par-72 course plays 6,237 from the tips, with only two par 5's and seven short par 4's, less than 350 yards. There are three shorter tee areas, so the course is accessible to all levels of play.

Course conditions are exceptional, with Rye and Kentucky bluegrass fairways, bent poa bluegrass greens and bluegrass tees.
