Knoebels Three Ponds Golf Club

Nestled just off PA‑487 in the rolling countryside of Elysburg, Pennsylvania, the Three Ponds Golf Course at Knoebels Amusement Resort provides an 18‑hole, par‑72 layout that blends challenging play with breathtaking scenery. The fairways wind around three tranquil ponds, offering golfers of every skill level a mix of strategic water hazards and generous landing areas. Greens are meticulously maintained, and the clubhouse atmosphere is relaxed yet professional, with friendly staff ready to assist. Daily operations run from 8:00 AM until dusk, and the modest €€ price range makes a round affordable for families and weekend warriors alike. After a round, players can unwind at the on‑site Nickle Plate Bar & Grill, where the menu features classic American fare such as burgers, chicken sandwiches, and fresh salads, all served with a view of the 18th green. The venue also hosts a variety of tournaments, including the American Legion Post 231 Tournament, the PAPA Barbara Knoebel Memorial Tournament, and the Oaklyn Invitational, each drawing regional competitors. For beginners, the Kids Kamp program teaches fundamentals in a fun, supportive setting, while the Ladies Golf Clinic offers free weekly lessons on grip, stance, and swing technique led by instructor Jonathan Clark. Its proximity to the world‑renowned Knoebels Amusement Resort—America’s largest free‑admission park—means visitors can combine a day of thrills with a round of golf, making Three Ponds a unique destination for both locals and tourists seeking sport, scenery, and Southern Pennsylvania hospitality.
