Investment Overview
COUNTRY CLUB OF THE POCONOS | ±373 ACRES | GOLF, EVENTS & HOSPITALITY
The Dietrick Team at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach, Commercial Division, is pleased to present the Country Club of the Poconos at 1445 Big Ridge Drive, East Stroudsburg, PA. This is an operating golf and hospitality property on ±373 acres in Middle Smithfield Township, Monroe County.
The offering includes the Country Club of the Poconos golf course and a clubhouse that ownership recently renovated with approximately $3 million in upgrades. The clubhouse now supports several revenue streams, including weddings and private events, food and beverage, indoor golf, and retail. That mix positions the property as a year-round destination instead of a seasonal golf operation.

THE CLUBHOUSE
Ownership's renovation turned the clubhouse into the centerpiece of the property. The wedding and event space draws on the Poconos' long-standing reputation as a destination for weddings, celebrations, and corporate retreats. The restaurant serves golfers, event guests, members, and the surrounding community. The indoor golf simulators extend the golf business through the winter months and add a draw for leagues, lessons, and entertainment. The pro shop completes the golf operation. With the major capital work already done, a new owner can focus on operations and growth instead of deferred maintenance.
THE LOCATION
The Poconos is one of the Northeast's most established leisure destinations. It attracts visitors, second-home owners, and full-time residents from the NY/NJ and Pennsylvania metro areas. The property's location in Middle Smithfield Township, with quick access to I-80, puts it within reach of a large regional population looking for golf, dining, and event venues. Nearby resorts, attractions, and residential communities add to the local demand for golf and hospitality.
INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY
The Country Club of the Poconos is well suited to:
- Golf course operators and management groups
- Hospitality and event venue operators
- Private equity and family office investors seeking a turnkey leisure asset
- Owner-operators looking for an established destination with room to grow
Potential upside includes expanded event and wedding programming, membership growth, tournaments and corporate outings, simulator leagues, and additional amenities or hospitality uses on the property's substantial acreage, subject to municipal approvals.
ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT PARCEL
Pocono Ridge Reserve, a ±33-acre residential development parcel within the Country Club of the Poconos, is being marketed separately. Buyers interested in pairing the golf and clubhouse operation with a residential component are encouraged to inquire about both offerings.
