About SkyTop Lodge

The 6,656-yard golf course is a scenic escape.

Great fall day!

4 deer on 17 and 7 turkeys on 18, 3 of which sat on a fence. What a great day for golf and a beautiful course. Stay out of the rough.

Great Course and Staff

I felt like I was at a top private country club! The staff was so friendly and helpful, especially the Head Golf Professional Justin Alunni.

The golf course was in great shape and is very challenging but fair. Love the mix of long and short par 4 holes.

This is a must play!

2 holes with water - both important.

Course was in good condition. Several great holes.

White tees play at 6386 yds. Forward tees (red) were at 5713. There should be something in between - had to improvise a “hybrid tee”.

Final hole is nasty! But great for betting!

Hole# 10 is a short par 4 with a drive over water, also potentially pivotal.

Good Layout in excellent condition

First time playing here. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The course provides a good test from the white tees for a senior with a 14 handicap. Greens were very fast and true. Overall the course was in great shape. Pace of play was slow. Fortunately the slower groups let us play through.

I will definitely play here again!

Skytop finally

Have wanted to play Skytop for a long time. Never got around to it. Played yesterday. Course was in nice condition. Course is basic. Green complexes average. Was surprised by the amount of distance from green to next tee often. That's quite odd for a 1928 course. Glad I made the journey to play.

Great course

Some holes are very long and challenging but overall a great course. Also has places to rent on the course. Suggested to my family to visit and play golf at Skytop.

New staff?

This has always been a nice course; the problem in the past has been the staff (particularly in the pro shop) just being snobby and/or nasty. Not so this time around, so hopefully they’ve had a change of staff and a change of heart. Pro Shop guy was super nice, as was the starter. They had my bag on a cart without me even checking in. On the negative side, 2 holes had the flag pulled and one hole had a screwdriver laying on it (the tool, not the drink).
