A scenic, fun , challenge
Great layout. Beautiful greens, carpet like, were a little slow today bit rolled true. Challenging holes with some breathtaking elelavation changes. Rough a little high today but fairways perfect. Sand traps were excellent. No parallel fairways. Tree lined but plenty wide.
Good overall in the country
Nice course in the valley in between some forested hills. Would be spectacular in fall.
Was in generally good shape. Some nice variety and not too tough. Amenities looked good even if a bit outdated.
A good option to try.
Challenging course
Layout is confusing. Some tees are marked Ok but some were not clearly marked, so we spent more time driving around than we cared for.
The greens were bumpy just not in the best shape.
Having said that the views are stunning.
Not a resort quality course
I did like playing here and would not have played if it wasn't for the group of guys I was playing with. The course does have a good layout and is a challenge for the mid to high handicap golfers. The downside is, the owner of the resort doesn't seem to want to invest with money to bring it back to a quality resort course. The paved cart paths need replaced, the tee boxes need to be leveled (most of them it was hard to find a level place to tee from) and the sand traps lacked sand and those that had sand, it looked they trucked it in from the beach. Some of the greens needed to be repaired, on the outside edges it was burned out or lacked grass. I said I would recommend, but take note the course is not up to par as a resort course.
Seven Springs Golf course
For a resort golf course maintenance was poor Half filled sand traps
Elevation
In an otherwise flatter part of the country I was excited to see that this course had a lot of elevation changes. The course itself wasn't too bad. There were a mix of great holes and average holes but overall it was a good time. When I played it, the course had be very saturated which made some shots difficult. The staff was very pleasant and if I were in the area for a dryer time of the year I would definitely play here again.
Good Resort Golf
First I want to state that we played in late April so to be fair the condition of the golf course was well, like it was still only late April that's why I gave it only 3 stars. However, with that being said I thought the condition was acceptable for the time of year.
The course layout was pretty decent. Since the resort is in the mountains of the laurel Highlands you can expect a lot of elevation changes. I really like even though there's a lot of topography most is up or down hill with not many side hill lies which was nice. Some blind shots due to the elevation change, there's about just as many shots down hill where you can see everything too. I did notice there seems to be a lot of holes with a right to left design some gradual some a little more severe. I played with my dad, he fades, no check that, slices the ball and struggled on a few. The fairways are medium to generous, the greens are the same and mostly flat to slight slope. The bunker sand is a little on the older side and has a little bit of a dirt mixture but hey they're hazards and you're not supposed to be in them. The pace of play was blazing we were the only ones out so I can't say what it's like at other times. We had a gift certificate so we played for free but it's a resort so it can be a little on the pricy side nothing too bad though. When we were there the regular weekend rate was $80 the sign in the golf shop said.
Over all I'd say if you want to go on a little road trip and check out a new course, don't mind paying resort prices, this might not be a bad spot. I've played golf all over North America both as an amateur and professionally, seven springs didn't blow me away nor did it make me regret going.
Great layout. A must play
Once again the course was in great shape despite aeration recently. The staff was friendly and the course was not overly busy.
Wanted to get the usual weekend package but couldnt. seems the new owners have no lodging at HV for summer and want you to stay at 7 Springs where there is a 2 nite minimum stay on weekends. Also noticed greens fees went up and the course is no longer on Golf Now. Food and beverage increased as well.
Great Day
Very nice course in excellent condition. Craig, the course professional, is very friendly. The views are the best of any golf course in Pennsylvania. Perfect fall day and played in just over 3 hours. It doesn't get any better.
Great, but.....
I had a 7:15 tee time and the place was practically shut down. Not sure if it was an error on the part of the course or this website but obviously the two weren't communicating. The guy in the pro shop didn't think he had any tee times until 8 am. I purposely got there early and booked an early tee time because I had other plans in the afternoon so that kind of put a damper on things. Luckily I was still able to get out first and finish in time.
The greens were in amazing shape! Very impressed. Unfortunately on the back nine I guess the mower got lazy though and at least 6 holes didn't put the flagstick back in - I should always aim for the middle of the green anyway but its nice to know where the pin is!!
I would have like to have seen some of the leaves in the fairways cleaned up too. I lost probably 3 balls in the fairway!
Granted I was the first one on the course that day, but it all goes back to what I originally said - if someone books a tee time at 7:15, have the course READY for them to play it.
Fantastic always, and now autumn!
This is such a beautiful golf course in every season...exceptionally maintained, elevation change without side-hill lies, varied and interesting layout...and now add a burst of fall color to the already charming vistas! Maggie in the pro shop is a gem and treats GolfNow folks with a genuine smile. This course is a joy to play in every sense and couldn't be a better value at GN pricing. It's an hour drive for me but very well worth it.
can't play just once
greens and tees are plush great course from the tips you can hit driver and score but errand tee shots will be a lost ball I highly recommend I'm in the 70's wherever I play and this is well worth the drive and money
Beautiful vistas!
The course is fairly challenging with woods on each side of every fairway. The greens are medium to small in size and are somewhat undulated. Fairways are pretty wide but there's not much forgiveness beyond and there is a good bit of water and sand along the course. The conditions of the course are not "championship" in nature but you'll enjoy a very unique round with beautiful views from nearly every hole.
This course is well maintained and many beautiful mountain views.
We were expecting steeper and more angled fairways but were pleasingly surprised to find them spacious and well maintained. The course has many hills but works them into play very well. The bunkers had real sand and not the hard packed play box sand found in many Western Pennsylvania courses.
Course is in beautiful condition. Well worth the trip.
From tee through the green, this course is in better shape than ever. Great experience except for slower play coming in back 9. Seems like always a problem here. If you never played here, make the trip. Nice experience.
Favorite course
This is my all time favorite course. The fairways and greens are always in excellent condition. This was the first time that my partner played here and he is definately bringing some of his golfing buddies to play here.
Rough greens on the front, nice layout and the greens improved
Played the course and we were surprised how many ball marks had not been fixed where you end up with round brown holes on the greens. We saw the damage on the first 7 holes but as the day went on the greens got better.
The layout and vistas on this course are really nice and worth a trip back in the Fall but we hope the greens in the front are nicer in the Fall.
Nice place to play
Course was in great shape from tee to green. Will definitely play again.Will be back in the fall when the leaves change colors.
This course has some amazing views.
This course has some amazing views from the side of the mountain. It's very scary walking up to the first tee and seeing a down hill shot to water with the green tucked behind and to right. The course is in great shape. It has some difficult up hill shots and a few blind shots but overall not to challenging it was a great round of golf.
What an AWESOME course
The greens are small but the design of the water and bunkers near the greens makes it very interesting. Hit a good shot and you are rewarded. Hit a bad shot and, well just have another ball handy. The views are incredible!!!!
While I highly encourage you to play this beautiful course in the fall after the leaves have changed, I want to caution you to not play the course after the leaves begin to fall. It is virtually impossible to find a golf ball that isn't in the fairway after the leaves are on the ground at this course. Also, remember this happens a few weeks earlier in the mountains than it does in the lower elevations. I just want to make sure your second trip to this great course is as enjoyable as your first!!!
