Grand View Golf Club in North Braddock is one of the area's most challenging layouts. The course's 160 acres were carefully carved from a woodland hilltop. From its perch, the golf course overlooks the Mon Valley with views stretching to the Edgar Thompson facility, Western Pennsylvania's first and last major steel mill. The distinctive layout will test your creative shot-making skills. It may seem relatively short at 6,111 yards from the back tees but it feels much longer thanks to the rolling fairways and undulating greens. The tight fairways are lined with cliffs, brush, and trees, leaving little room for error. You should also be prepared for forced carries and tricky doglegs. Grand View Golf Club can be punishing for the low handicapper, but high handicappers will find this course to be a unique test of their skills.

on short side for yardage,but tight,hilly terrain make a good challange

course is short on the total yardage,but that does not make it an easy course.tight and blind driving area,fast and true greens few of which are flat.a target course for sure.hit it straight or be prepared to lose some pro-v balls.course is not for every one less skilled players can find it to be too hard for them.easy to lose a dozen balls.i myself love the challenge the course offers.play it once and decide for yourself.

Challenging with a View!

There are many blind greens, with fairway markers to assist. The elevation changes require continual thought on club selection. The urge to use a driver on every par 4 and par 5 tee must be repressed! The greens are fast, well-maintained, and their perimeters are forgiving on most holes. The lack of water hazards are more than made up with lots of canyons and bunkers. The scenery is spectacular and the course is a lot of fun until the wind picks up.
