Pine Hills is on the southwest side of Scranton, a few miles off I-81 at the Davis St exit in the Lackawanna Valley.

The classic routing is over rolling hills and along tree-lined fairways leading to oval or kidney-shaped greens, minimally defended by sand bunkers, in a scenic setting surrounded by mountains. It's a short course at only 6,142 yards from the back tees, 67.2/119 course/slope ratings with two shorter tees, originally designed by Hank Evanish with recent design work by R. Stuart Cutlip.
