About this course

Hiland Golf Course sits in Butler, Pennsylvania, a city roughly 35 miles north of Pittsburgh in the rolling terrain of western Pennsylvania. The course was designed by Ralph Zediker Sr., a regional architect active in the mid-twentieth century who contributed several layouts to the western Pennsylvania golf landscape during an era of municipal and daily-fee course development across the region. The routing takes advantage of the area's natural topography, which features moderate elevation changes and wooded corridors typical of courses built in this part of the state. The property offers a mix of open and tree-lined holes, with fairways that follow the land's contours and greens that reflect the design sensibilities of its period. As a public facility, Hiland serves the Butler community and visiting golfers seeking accessible play in a setting that balances challenge with playability for a range of skill levels. Courses of this vintage in western Pennsylvania often emphasize straightforward strategic design without excessive length or modern hazard complexities, focusing instead on shot placement and course management. Hiland fits within this tradition, providing a golf experience rooted in the region's mid-century course-building movement when communities expanded recreational opportunities for local residents. The course remains a fixture in Butler's recreational offerings, maintaining its role as a neighborhood golf destination in a region with deep ties to the game's growth across Pennsylvania.
