Nice course

The course was in great shape, really enjoyed the fairways and greens, fairly fast greens with moderate slopes. Would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting a challenging day of golf.

OK Golf

Any golf course with lighted holes should raise alarm bells.

This course isn't going on anyone's must play list and isn't going to make you long to return. While in decent condition this summer thanks to all of the rain this course is flat for Western PA and without much of a challenge for a single digit candicap. The greens are flat and average speed, the bunkers in decent repair, the fairways reasonably cut.

The GPS system in the carts does have too many speed and routing controls that they are a pain to use.

All in all $25 is the high end for this course.

Fort Cherry is a nice course!

I enjoy playing this course many times per season. It is a moderately challenging layout. This year the conditions are absolutely excellent, fairways, 1st cut is nice and short (no looking straight down to find your ball in heavy grass). Greens are perfect, nice speed, no bumps. Staff is very friendly. The GPS carts take some getting used to as you cannot approach too close to the greens with them, you will have to reverse and back away at times. You get used to that after several rounds and understandably it is keeping the course in good shape. Highly recommended!

Better courses for the money

By my estimation, Ft Cherry is overpriced. Relatively slow play and close fairways caused several close calls with other golfers playing other holes. Very low on my 'replay' list.

Fast greens and slow carts.

I enjoyed the layout enough, friendly staff, and the conditions were just okay. But there were two things that will prevent me from coming back. One - greens were too fast for an average hacker like me and didn't hold approach shots very well either. Two - What is with the GPS system in the carts? Cart slows down automatically around greens (fair enough), but completely shuts down if you get too close to a green or sometimes; seemingly random places. Very inconvenient sometimes and downright aggravating others. Call me petty, but the course isn't nice enough to justify that cart system, and I wouldn't go out of my way to play here again because of it.

Great greens

Visitor to PA and First time played, staff were excellent and friendly.

Greens and fairways were in great conditions.

The layout is very hilly with what I call runway golf as in multiple runways at an airport where you see planes/golfers all around you.

Not a bad thing but at times a few close calls with near misses when an errand ball was struck.

Overall an enjoyable day and great value for the price.

Very average

Fairway wasn't cut. Double booked our tee time. Slick greens. They allowed a 5 some in front which had 2 some finishing a round in 4 1/2 hours. The carts do not allow you to travel far from the cart paths. I won't return to this course.

Can't beat Fort Cherry

Over the 4 years I've lived in Pittsburgh, I've played Fort Cherry the most. Course was in excellent condition overall, the greens were PGA slick on this date (a first time for this in my experience), but still true as always. If you are considering Fort Cherry and have never played, book your round and go, you will not be disappointed.
