Allentown Municipal Golf Course

About Allentown Municipal Golf Course

This municipal gem sits in Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley and punches well above its weight for a city-owned track. The routing makes smart use of rolling terrain, with several elevated tees that give you glimpses of the surrounding hills while testing your course management skills. What sets this place apart from typical munis is the condition. The greens are surprisingly quick and true for the price point, and the fairways are generally well-maintained despite heavy play from locals who've discovered what a solid value this represents. The 4.3 Google rating from nearly 600 reviews tells you everything about the consistency here. Walking is encouraged, which keeps the pace reasonable and lets you appreciate the mature trees that frame many holes. At these green fees, you're getting legitimate golf architecture that rewards good shots and punishes poor ones, not just a place to hack around. If you're in the Allentown area and want to play real golf without the country club pretense or price tag, this should be on your short list.
