Hollenback Golf Course is a par-32 public course in Plains, PA, established 1916.

Hollenback Golf Course serves the Plains area of Luzerne County, within the Wyoming Valley that forms the heart of the Wilkes-Barre metropolitan area. The Wyoming Valley is one of Pennsylvania's most historically dense river corridors — the North Branch of the Susquehanna River carved a broad plain here that supported anthracite mining, textile manufacturing, and dense urban settlement for over a century. Luzerne County golf has long carried a working-class character: courses built for mine workers and factory hands, accessible by price and geography to the communities they served. Hollenback Park — the name suggests a connection to the Hollenback family prominent in Wilkes-Barre history — sits in the valley floor, part of the green infrastructure the city has maintained through difficult post-industrial decades.
