About Linden Hall
Linden Hall touts itself as "one of Pennsylvania's best secrets". This 785-acre estate is home to a historic 74-room lodge and a 6,405-yard golf course that winds up and down the region's rolling hills. The 8,720-square-foot Linden Hall mansion contains 35 rooms, 27 fireplaces, 13 baths, an indoor bowling alley and walk-in clothes dryer. An Aeolian pipe organ, one of three in the world, could be heard throughout the first and third floors when played. Today, the mansion, dating to 1913, is used by the United Steel Workers of America. The Club Pub restaurant overlooking the 18th fairway, a heated outdoor pool and hiking/biking trails are available.Facts

wide open fairways
Love the wide fairways for wayward shots. Long holes mixed with shorter holes depending on which tees you hit from. Greens can be tricky especially when ball is above the holes.
Pace of play was intolerable.
We teed off #1 at 10:45. At 12:13 (90 minutes later), I finally phoned the pro shop as we were sitting on tee box #5 -- waiting for our turn to hit. I could only leave a voicemail. The pace of play picked up SLIGHTLY, but we still took almost 3 hours to finish the front nine. Rather than continue on the back nine, we asked the starter if we could just replay the front -- which we did.
Great course conditions and a beautiful day, but BOY you tick off a lot of golfers by allowing play to drag at that pace.
Lindenhall
The pace of play is great. The course isn’t fantastic shape. The pace of play is spectacular and the people that work there are terrific
Friendly people and a well maintained course
The staff is very friendly and the workers there on the course do a wonderful job. Will definitely go again
Best Course in the area!
Hidden gem. Kept up meticulously! Will continue to play here even without GolfNow
Nice place
I am going to play it again. It is a fair challenge to my game. Fair price for the condition. Still has somehwat of a bug issue. They need more birdhouses to attract birds to eat the bugs.
Beautiful setting
Well maintained course! Challenging greens.
Wide open and not much water on the course…I would recommend this course for all skill levels.
Among best public courses in Western PA. Hidden Gem
Course is in excellent condition. Off the beaten path but worth the drive over the river and through the woods. A mansion, built by a coal baron at the turn of the last century, sits atop a hill overlooking the grounds and course and there are no other residential structures on site. Tees, fairways and greens in excellent shape. Chipping and putting green available but no driving range. True about every public course, bunkers can use some maintenance (strongly feel most public courses should remove sand bunkers that require extensive maintenance and costs with grass bunkers). Greens roll true and are receptive. Staff is friendly and the course is continually looking to make improvements. There is a bar and grill open following the round. Food is good and reasonably priced. Pitcher of beer $11. I rate this course along with Totteridge (Greensburg), The Madison Club (Madison), Butlers (Elizabeth), and Cedarbrook among the best of the public courses in Western PA.
Nice Course Nice Staff Good Price
I have been playing Linden Hall for about 40 years and always enjoy the place.
Amazing tee to green
Course was in phenomenal condition. First time playing and i will definitely be back
