About this course

Beechwood Golf Course sits in Falls Creek, a small community in Clearfield County in central Pennsylvania. The course was designed by Fred Crawford, a regional architect active in western and central Pennsylvania during the mid-20th century. Crawford's work typically emphasized playability and integration with natural terrain, characteristics that define many courses in Pennsylvania's forested hill country. The layout occupies rolling woodland terrain characteristic of the Allegheny Plateau region, where elevation changes and tree-lined corridors shape the playing experience. Courses in this area of Pennsylvania often feature narrow fairways carved through dense hardwood forests, with greens that reflect the natural contours of the land. The setting provides a traditional parkland experience common to small-town Pennsylvania golf, where the game unfolds within a framework of mature trees and modest but meaningful topographical movement. Beechwood serves as a community course for the Falls Creek area and surrounding Clearfield County, offering accessible golf in a region where the sport has deep recreational roots among local residents. The course reflects the straightforward design values of its era, prioritizing honest shot-making over elaborate features. Like many Pennsylvania courses of similar vintage and scale, Beechwood provides a familiar round of golf that emphasizes accuracy and course management within a wooded, hilly landscape.

Getting there

The journey to Beechwood Golf Course unfolds through the rolling terrain of northwestern Pennsylvania, most readily accessed via a two-hour drive southeast from Erie International Airport (ERI), or roughly ninety minutes south from the larger hub of Pittsburgh International (PIT). From either gateway, the route transitions from interstate corridors into the quieter byways that characterize the region, with the final approach descending into the wooded valleys surrounding Falls Creek. The course sits nestled within this landscape of modest elevation and dense forest, a setting that rewards the patient traveler with the kind of understated beauty that defines golf in rural Pennsylvania - no grand entrance, simply the arrival at a place where the game remains tethered to the land itself.
