Toftrees, Pennsylvania is a convenient check-in for fans of Penn State University, the state’s largest educational institution, during football weekends. On every other weekend, visitors can get in a round of golf at the city’s self-titled resort.
Although the town takes its name from a hamlet on England’s coast, the course designed by Ed Ault is American through-and-through. Those playing from the tips will need to be both long and accurate, as the course stretches to past 7,100 yards and most of those fairways are lined by trees. Then again, the approaches might be the more difficult shots here. Most of the greens are well-defended by bunkers and many are long and thin, again requiring accuracy (and the correct club) to provide an opportunity for birdie.
No. 9 is the signature hole; a mid-length par four, players must make the decision whether to pull driver and carry the water that runs up the left, or lay up to the right, which will create a much more difficult approach shot.
Although there are few similarities to be found with olde-world golf, the club advertises the fog that comes off the lake in the morning, creating a sense of wandering the moors.
