Who Should Play Here?

Beginner Not Recommended

This course is not beginner-friendly due to its very hard difficulty rating, extremely hilly terrain, and long distances. The elevation changes are significant enough that players have described needing triathlete-level fitness for an 18-hole round.

  • Consider the 6-hole ADA-accessible Learn To Play course near Penn Power pavilion instead
  • Bring plenty of water - the elevation gain is no joke and requires good hydration
  • Prepare for hiking about four miles to finish your round, so bring snacks
  • The championship course is more suited for players looking to level up their game
Intermediate Playable

Intermediate players will find this course challenging with its mix of open fairways and wooded holes. The three concrete tee positions (intermediate, advanced, elite) offer strategic options for managing difficulty.

  • Use the intermediate tees to manage the significant elevation changes
  • Stay on fairways as wooded areas can sneak up on you if you stray off course
  • The course tests your skills and gives a good workout with steep up-and-down terrain
  • Solid markings make navigation easier, but don't get too comfortable
Advanced Recommended

Advanced players will appreciate the championship layout with long holes and killer elevation changes. The course is ranked as a top distance course with strategic obstacles that cater to seasoned players.

  • Play from elite tees for maximum challenge on this 10,742' championship layout
  • The course offers serious challenge with good conditions when dry and groomed
  • Take advantage of the three pins per hole for strategic pin placement options
  • This is one of the most difficult courses from an elevation gain perspective in the region
