Grand View Golf Club

Many holes had incredible views of Pittsburgh or nearby neighborhoods from a very high elevation- hence the name of the course. When we were there, the greens had been aerated within the last week or so and were quite rough, but otherwise the course was in very fine shape. The pace of play was excellent when we were there.

Disappointed to find greens had been air rated (sp) and covered with sand. I believe the course and or Golf Now should be responsible to advise the golfers of repairs or upgrades performed to the course before booking. Allowing the golfer to decide if he wants to play. I wasted a day of golf because the greens were not in playable condition (ie bumpy and extremely slow ).

Great value through GolfNow. Course is still in excellent shape heading into the fall. Short but not easy due to tons of blind shots.

Great condition, fairways are tight and only need driver for a couple holes.

I live quite close and on a soggy Labor Day I ventured over to check the place out. The elevated location offers unique views of western Pennsylvania. Not exactly beautiful but unique none the less. As soon as i walked in the pro shop some guy behind the counter barked "she'll be right back". I was a bit confused as if he was speaking with someone that he had previously conversed with. Eventually a nice enough female asked if I was going to play 9 or 18 and 18 would be 50 bucks as it was a holiday. I told her that I saw on "golf now" that there was 18 holes for 30 bucks if they would honor that. She told me I had to get that deal through them... So I jumped on my phone and $24.75 later I was sent to the first tee. I was paired up with 2 other singles and they sent us out in 3 separate carts. Very nice guys and we all played a similar game. The carts have gps and were new and well maintained. But due to the weather we were kept to cart path only. There were multiple fairways under water. The course definitely was a challenge. Many holes had varying elevations. There is a par 3 that has to drop like 9 stories. It only plays 110 but must have been 150. Pretty cool. Unfortunately for the one downhill there were plenty uphill. Some even led to multiple blind shots. 18 especially. The greens were pretty quick and had undulations which without careful putting could easily be a 3 jerk. I will for sure play this course again. I hope a bit more course familiarity can offer some better approaches on those mentioned blind shots.

Had a good time enjoyed . Had to play the course , kept driver in my bag except for 3 or 4 holes.Easy to lose balls got to hit it straight.

Beautiful course in great shape. Unbelievable views on just about every hole. Near perfect conditions especially for this late in the year. Staff was friendly and helpful. We ate at the restaurant afterwards and the food was very good. I would recommend anyone in the Pittsburgh ares play this course at least once. I also highly recommend riding even if you usually walk. The course is very hilly but still very playable.

its a beautiful course, but the fairways were full of aeration, big dirt clumps covered the entire course on the fairways, so i am sure this is not a common thing, but it was frustrating with playing in that and also the constant lawn care trying to pick it up. maybe i just went there on a bad day, haha

Wildlife, views of Pittsburgh and Kennywood, and beautiful greens/fairways.

The course was in great shape but it is a tough track. You must be able to hit all kinds of shots there. Sometimes you would hit the fairway and your ball would roll down the hill because it's so steep.

Greens are in impeccable shape and the course is in, overall, great shape. I would recommend bringing many golf balls, as any errant tee shot usually means a lost ball. Super difficult course, but there are scoring opportunities if tee shots are accurate.

The course was in excellent condition with very fast greens. A bit on the short side and a lot of "target shooting" tee shots. Used a driver maybe 5-6 times. Par 70, no par 5s on the front.

As a 1st-time player here, I found the course as challenging as you read about, Be prepared to play station-to-station golf with some steep downhill and uphill shots, as well as blind shots on which you need to follow the posted flags, trees and towers as guideposts. If you are accurate with your driver, you can use it, but if you are good with your long irons, you may wish to stick with them. I lost 8 balls by driving though the fairway or just not aiming properly. Fast, firm greens. Had a GREAT time, as I played with 3 others who knew the course, the weather was sunny & 78 w/slight breeze, and the pro shop/restaurant/beverage cart staff worked hard to provide great service. I might mention that the round was lengthy due to a heavy late Sat. afternoon crowd of Beginners, but the terrain & the vistas made up for it.

played from back tees for more challenging round
greens and fairways in good condition
played 18th from tips at nearly 600yds-very long and no temptation to fly water
deer and turkey on the course and great views

The course is set high above one of the "three rivers" with wonderful views from most holes. It was in very good shape, although I would remind golfers to replace divots and fix ball marks on the greens. The greens were true and well-kept. There were a few blind holes, which made it difficult, as well as narrow fairways. That said, I lost three balls during the entire round and was quite pleased with my play. I would definitely play this course again, and I recommend it to folks, as long as you hit the ball STRAIGHT!

If your looking for a challenge, this course is for you. Great place to play. First time at Grand View and it won't be the last time there.

Tight course, great shape, if your not straight you better bring back goat shoes

We had a 5:26 tee time and got right off. Course was in great shape. The only issue was it rained on holes 14&15 and the in cart scorecard did not work nor did the GPS. Overall we had a great time and play this course regularly.

This was the most interesting course I have played this year. Reminded me a little of course I played outside Pinehurst called Tabacco Road. Blind shots , Steep slopes on most holes, Dramatic elevations that were interesting but shooting a 94 I still lost 8 balls, Now having played the course, the next time would be better but its still a tough course if you cant keep it straight. Was lots of fun and entertaining but losing all those balls wasn't good for score.

Course in great shape....prepare to lose a lot of balls if you stray from fairways
