The best golf courses in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania

“Fantastic track. Will test you with every shot you have. No holding back, just have to step up to the tee box, pull out driver and fire away. Greens are the fastest I’ve ever played. On the first hole, had 168 out.”

“A 1923 par 70 Seth Raynor design that boasts one of the best collections of greens ever created by the legendary architect. This is template golf at its very best. Immaculate Poa greens and approach area allow this course to play firm and fast.”

“Pittsburgh field club is a rare great walk in Pittsburgh. With so many hills in the area walking a course in the area is usually a tall task. This isn’t the case here. While a few uphill holes on the front may test your legs the course flattens on the back.”

“A tasteful Willy Park jr design Chartiers is delightful. A par 70 that’s short yardage lulls you into trouble. Deceptive fairway contouring makes hitting a fairway an accomplishment and the firm+fast+subtle breaking greens makes playing out of the fairway all the more important.”

“Reasonable priced at $70 this is one of the few public tracks in the area that has survived the wild summer and remains is good condition. The greens roll a tick or 2 slower than most but the collection of par 4s provide a variety that few public courses in pittsburgh rival.”

“We played Olde Stonewall while visiting Pittsburgh in August 2024 for a Bruce Springsteen concert with my brothers and dad — and of course, we packed the clubs. This course was such a fun surprise. It’s carved through rolling hills with tons of elevation change and character.”

“Firm and FAST! Routing does a good job of playing nicely through some extreme elevation changes. Definitely challenging, but all holes can be gotten — misses can catch up with you quickly. Don’t hit the false fronts and be careful with those downhill putts. Loving it.”

“Yo, Montour Heights got that local flavor. Dye design, so you already know it’s got angles, attitude, and a little chaos. Layout’s unique, creative, keeps you thinkin’ on every swing. Not every hole’s a banger, but the vibe’s real.”

“With a meandering routing that weaves through the rolling hills Birdsfoot perfectly encapsulates golf in western PA. Elevation changes on nearly every hole Birdsfoot leans into the terrain. The par 3s are varied and a perfect collection for matchplay.”

“Paid $30 for a really well maintained course, a challenging layout that asks for different shots but still makes you have fun, and an enjoyable atmosphere.”

“Usually in way better shape than you’d expect, Pittsburgh National is a great place for a trusty round of golf. It’s not the most exciting in the area - there’s not a lot of holes that pop off the screen (the stretch from 10-13 probably being the standout).”

“Quirky, Pittsburgh golf at its finest. Doglegs, elevation changes, and holes you struggle to explain to people. That has its ups (hole 3) and its downs (holes 5 through 7 are a shooting gallery nightmare of design). It’s way too crowded, in ok shape, but a fun home base.”
