About Saucon Valley Country Club
Strong built his holes into natural amphitheaters carved by centuries of water flow. The limestone bedrock creates firm conditions even after heavy rains, while mature beech and maple trees frame every approach shot. The club sits just miles from the old Bethlehem Steel works, yet feels completely removed from the Rust Belt industrial landscape that surrounds it.
