About this course

North Park Golf Course occupies rolling terrain in Allison Park, a northern suburb of Pittsburgh in Allegheny County. The course sits within North Park, one of the county's largest public parks, which encompasses several thousand acres of wooded hills and open space. The layout was built in the mid-twentieth century as a municipal facility and serves the greater Pittsburgh area as an accessible public golf option. The property's natural topography provides elevation changes and tree-lined corridors typical of western Pennsylvania parkland courses. The routing moves through a mix of mature hardwoods and more open areas, with fairways that follow the land's natural contours. Several holes play uphill or downhill, requiring golfers to account for slope in club selection and approach strategy. Water comes into play occasionally, and bunkers guard greens and landing areas throughout the design. The course layout offers a straightforward test suitable for a range of skill levels, with length and terrain providing the primary challenges rather than severe hazards or forced carries. As a county-operated facility, North Park serves a broad membership and daily-fee clientele. The course hosts local amateur events and league play during the season. Its location within the larger park system means golfers often share the surrounding landscape with hikers, picnickers, and other recreational users. The clubhouse provides basic amenities consistent with municipal golf operations in the region.
